So there will be some of us that are overseas (yeah WTF?) for the big dance, we will be scattered wide and far, this is the thread for us to share where we are, what we will be doing to celebrate/commiserate and feel like we are part of the tribe.

And most importantly if we are near each other where we can meet to share this momentous occasion together.

I'll be in Seattle, 6.30pm on Friday night local time, I'll be joining the local Aussie rules team, the Seattle grizzlies at their grand final function and fund raiser. - I've never met them before, but hopefully we will be new best mates by the final siren.

So post your where and what you'll be doing, and most importantly how you will celebrating!



And for the record I've given my GF ticket to my uncle who is much longer suffering than I am, so +50 karma points!

Thanks for that. I will be in Hangzhou at a place called College Bar.

There is a Geelong supporters group here, so naturally they are all going for us.
I maxed out my 23kg on teaching materials and didn't bring any of my footy jumpers ( hot and muggy here )
Going to see if I can score a French flag for the day.

I've been in Dubai for the Prelim but fly out tonight for all the GF week celebrations - including tickets for the game!!!

Have been wearing my Dogs gear for the pst week (needs a wash) and can't believe the support here for us!
