35 years ago my mates gave me this bottle of Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey for my 21st birthday under strict instructions that it was not to be opened until Richmond won its next Premiership!

That year my girlfriend (and bride to be) and l bizarrely went on the Harry Bietzel Grand Final Footy Weekend trip to Launceston, watching the game, and loss to Carlton, on a big screen in a noisy pub.

This year I'd love her to accompany me to the Grand Final to watch the mighty Tigers take on Adelaide but as a Restricted MCC Member this is the only day of the year she can't access the members reserve (first world problems I know)!


Does anyone out there have (or know of someone who may have) a MCC guest pass that may not be in use next Saturday?

I'd be more than happy to pay the annual fee to renew the pass if that's all it took!

Please share if you know someone that may hold a pass that will possibly be idle this Saturday and would like to see a huge Tiger fanatic share the day with his bride of almost 35 years!

You never know you may also have the opportunity to share some very special Bourbon if things go our way on the day!

Go Tiges!
