I remember vividly the feeling of anticipation as a kid. Dressed in my team’s colours black and orange, with my hand made poster waiting for our guests to arrive, we sat before our 20cm colour TV…no remote control in those days, watched numerous beer ads, the pre-match games and listened eagerly to the knowledgeable words of the commentators. With bowls of chips, crackers, and French onion dip in hand we cheered every tackle, held our breath with every kick and cried tears of joy when the final whistle blew. Such a precious childhood memory.
This year I have my own little family and although she will be only 6 months on grand final day, I think, what could be a better way to celebrate half a year of life than to watch your first football grand final with family and friends. The colours may be wrong but the jersey will fit perfectly. How will you be celebrating grand final day? Click here to invite your family and friends over for a Grandfinal BBQ this long weekend.
