FOOTY, PIE, BEER….
And then there’s the cost of food and drinks — two elements that form part and parcel of the football experience.
At the MCG, a meat pie will cost you $4.10, but at Adelaide Oval you’ll be expected to fork out $5.30.
Beers are also more expensive, although only marginally.

Getting into the nitty gritty; What does it cost for us to go and watch a season of AFL?
First of all, let’s have a look at the location of each game, and we are going to base the costs on a EAGLES support-
er.
Games at home for 2017 – 11; Price of Admission $475
Away Games for 2017 – 10; Ave Admission Price $38 x 10 = $380
Airfares Rtn to Perth – Ave $740 x 10 = $7,400
Accommodation – Budget (2nights) x 10 = 2,900
So, to get to every game; total cost = $11,155
Pie and 4 beers at each game (ave cost); $35per game = $735
So for an Eagles fan the bill to go and watch every game not including the finals is; $11,890
Cost to fly to Vietnam – stay for the whole season, including Grand final and watch EVERY game –
Every Team and an apartment for the entire trip
Airfare Perth – HCMC Rtn $840 (or less)
Apartment 8 months (ave cost) 6,000,000₫ = 48,000,000₫ = $2,791
5 beers and a pie each game = $250 (or less)
Choice of venues to watch all Sports – endless
Total cost in Australia: $11,890
Total cost in Vietnam: $ 3,881
Difference:
$ 8,009
You save over $8,000 just watching the footy!
