    The name should have been SACHIN. The mark would have been more than 1,100 in no time.

    • +5

      or anyone with the last name Singh

      • might as well say every Li or Lee in Australia.

        • +5

          No, I'm your alter ego. Mostly I post at night when you think we're asleep.

          It's kind of a Tyler Durdan thing, but instead of beating people up we beat prices down.

          Btw stop doing that with our hand.

        • you guys suck

    Finally some recognition…

      Your time to shine!

    It costs $91.10 to change your legal name in Victoria: http://online.justice.vic.gov.au/CA2574F700805DE7/page/Listi…

    The two tickets are valued at $100 according to the T&C. So this is effectively an 8.9% discount for those not named Matt. :P

    • +3

      aah but then you need to change your name back or deal with the hassle of changing your name on everything.

    • +3

      That's right, it's a $182.20 return ticket. No deal!

  • +6

    dude, change ur avatar pic, i spent like 30 seconds starting at the deal wondering how the WWE was affiliated with it, then i had a brain fart revelation.

  • +1

  • My room mate is Matt!! I don't like cricket though :(

  • +3

    • I'm a matt, and it's always ammusing to answer to mums talking to their kids :D

    My name is not Matt. I'm tempted to neg this for racism.

    • +1

  • -1

    Anyone tryed to get the tickets who isnt called matt? Wat they gunna do check ur id? My i just changed my dogs name to matt. Hes gettin some free cricket tickets now

    • You need the matt to show some form of ID at the ground before the game. license, birth certificate, etc.

  • +3

    All Matt's out there, make sure you read the T&C's before getting the tickets. In short:
    a) You must get there around 8-8:30am and NO later to register and get the tickets, they wont be given out later than this.
    b) You need to sit with all the other 'Matt's' for a good 30mins in a special allocated spot before moving back to sit with your mate anywhere you wish (within Southern Stand)
    c) You get a free T-Shirt to wear for the world record attempt part 8-9am, but it states you must wear it for the whole day.
    d) You have to be willing to have your photo taken etc…
    e) You must present ID to prove you are named Matthew.
