Brisbane Meet & greet.

[krissy]

Wests Tigers are having a meet & greet in Brisbane for fans to get autographs & photos & a chance to win a signed jersey.
They are charging $70 for adults & $55 for kids.
I don’t know about anyone else but I think that is extreme.

 

[Demps]

Wow, I met all these lads for free over the years.

$70 is a big ask...

Glad u feel the need to defend those who choose to attend.

Raising money for the legal fees to take NRL to court I hope

Lol they’ll only get the Ambush guys show up to that.
Seriously though, what a terrible ripoff.

I don't want anyone who went to feel bad, good on you! I just think it's rich of the club to collect membership fees from out of towners then charge that much and presumably not include a lot.

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

Tigers is unfathomably short sighted. I get it costs to send staff up, but what we need to be doing is establishing goodwill amongst fans, not rorting them to meet the players when many of them have already forked out to travel. Absolutely ludicrous.

Brooks isn't injured, he just didn't want to have to pay the fee.

It’s pretty disgraceful to be honest. Why you’d charge for fan engagement like this is mind boggling. I can’t imagine it would cost that much that the club couldn’t write off as an expense.

Short sighted and terrible optics.

Because the hiring of a venue and putting the food on is not free…

The $55 for kids bit has me feeling just a little angry.

Not so fussed about $70 for a single (usually a man) that can afford it, but kids are what these events should be about. So expecting fans with a kid/s to have to fork out $125++ to get there and attend with an adult is a bit rich.

No fan day is free. But you do them because the long-term benefits outweigh your initial expenses.

I’m only guessing , what about event for charity, anyone know the cause ?

Been to plenty of fan days - very rarely are they done at a venue (that costs money) with free food (that also costs money)
Have been to the out of town meet and greets - they’re usually a great night and you can see why they cost a few bucks..
They’re usually catered with wait staff etc…

Ambush is free, always will be

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

should have been free for fans at least kids free

 

[innsaneink]

Apparently about 100 supporters attended

It’s not a fan day mate, it’s a club function…
They cost money - always have

People doing it tough and those prices don’t help either. Was it meant to be more intimate
