GRAND FINAL WEEK

World’s tallest man at premiership definitely not 5 blokes sharing one ticket

Grand Final Week

As the Steel City Standard grapples with the best way to give away a single ticket to Sunday’s premiership (yes, we are serious) it seems others in the Hunter are also being pushed to extreme levels of creativity and trickery to watch the game in person.

When our reporters attempted to contact the unusually tall man to firstly, ask whether he could fit one more, but then whether or not he was really just 5 blokes standing on each other’s shoulder’s, a head emerged from the coat and said tersely:

“There are a lot more of us then there are of them. No warrant no search.”

We, I mean I, know my rights.” #nrlgrandfinal #newcastle #newcastleknights #newy

Satire, obviously.The Steel City Standard is a satirical publication. The stories here are made up for a laugh and are not statements of fact.
