Draw for the semi & final tickets for RWC

Post by craftynick »

Just wondering did anybody else get to buy any of these in the Ticketmaster draw & if so which did you go for??

I got 2 for semi-final 1 - is anyone else going to this??

Also have tickets for all the Ireland pool games - is anyone else going to the 2 in Paris & can anyone else give me some travel advice for Paris as me & little sis are planning on staying up for the 12 days but have never been before - anyone want to take us under their wing

:lol:

Thanks

You can't use the words cheap and Paris in the same sentence crafty :lol:
Keep out of the residential suburbs unless you know where you are going, they can be very dodgy :terror:

see thats the problem - never been to paris so trying to find out which are the dodgy/residential suburbs to avoid - obviously we are going for cheap as chips!!!!

as we also have 2 semi tickets were hoping to sell them for a few €s which will probably pay for our accommadtion - but it would be good to stay near other irish fans if possible in paris

The sacre cour is located just up from the place de clichy which houses a lot of nightclubs and the world famous Moulin Rouge and a very good place to stay in Paris, and is in walking distance of the Champs Elysees(or however it is spelt)
And as the player tried to take the field, the marching band refused to yield and do you recall what was revealed........
