The Orlando clash between the defending Super 14 champs, the Vodacom Bulls and seven time champions, the Crusaders, is now a certain sell-out and should ensure a classic encounter for the first rugby match of this magnitude in the Johannesburg township.
The Bulls announced that a limited amount of tickets were up for sale, after the suite holders got their share on Monday as well. Season ticket holders will need to ensure they take up their tickets by Tuesday, or any remaining tickets will be released to the public.
“Tickets for the Vodacom Super 14 semifinal at Orlando Stadium in Soweto on 22 May 2010 have been sold out,” the Bulls announced in a press statement. “ The tickets for the public were available at Computicket from 09h00 this morning, but sold out in hours.
“Tickets not taken up by season ticket holders by Tuesday 18 May at 16:00 will be released to the public and an announcement in this regard will be communicated as soon as possible.”
At the same time the Bulls released information about the Park and Ride facilities from Supersport Park and Nasrec to ferry spectators to the games.
But after promising fans a “boot braai” at Nasrec, the Bulls have had to relent and now because of regulations at the various venues, no braais will be allowed at either facility.
However, the Bulls have promised a beer tent and entertainment when fans arrive at Orlando. The information about the transportation is as follows:
