I don't have an issue with paying.
Enjoyed a few big nights for free in the past but its always too packed, impossible to chat to players for a decent amount of time with drunk birds wanting photos. If you don't want to pay then awesome, more beer and food @ $35 for me.
I'm annoyed they have guest passes, it's a "Members" Cocktail Party. Went last year and some muppet Collingwood supporter was slagging us off in the urinals, I nearly peeed on him.
You have to pay for everything these days, I'll save my whinging about having to pay for reading the HS website.
