Well, what a weekend! What more could a Geelong ex-pat ask for? A Geelong Premiership win, a record winning margin, beating the team of which 70% at my work are supporters of and of course, followed up by a long night on the turps.
I watched the game from Skilled Stadium before heading down into town. The noise of 1000s of horns going off was almost deafening. The town was going crazy, with people climbing on roofs, lightpoles and rooftops.
I ended up heading down to the elbow at at about 8pm and stayed there for the rest of the night till it shut (about 4am). It was packed, with atleast 50% of everyone wearing GFC gurnseys. The Cats theme song was the feature song of the night, being played on average 1 out of 5 times.
All in all, what a night! Anyone here game enough to open the lid on back to back yet...? :P
