You probably think that some Scottish soccer team playing East Forthbollixhsire Academicals is an "event".

ProudDUB's Handy Dandy Guide to the Parnell Pass: Chapter 45 - Is it Worth It?
1. If you have a Parnell Pass, you get in free to all Dublin club games, in both codes, be they in Parnell Park, or in other club grounds. So do the sums yourself, of how many games you went to from April 2015 to April 2016, at a tenner a head. That is what you will save if you buy a PP. The PP only covers the Dublin club champo, not the Leinster club champo or the semi finals & final.
2. You get in to next years home league games for free, in both codes, be they in PP or in Croke Park. (Away leagues games, you have to pay for.) So figure out how much you spent paying into league games this year and that is what you'll save on next years league games. Bear in mind that we only have 3 home games next year.
If you are a PP holder, you just have to show your card to get into Parnell Park. However, for games at Croker Park, you need an actual paper ticket. You have to go into the Dorset St ticket office to pick up that free ticket. It is one master ticket, that does for all of our home games. You don't have to go in before every game. The Dorset St office is only open Tue-Fri. Unfortunately, you can't collect your ticket on match days. If you have a terrace PP, but you don't want to stand on the Hill in the cold, you just have ask for a stand master ticket & they will give you one. I do that every year. Unlike one mad eegit here, who was paying for tickets he could have got for free. (Let it out BD, let it out, you'll feel better afterwards.
)
3. The PP is not valid for any O'Byrne Cup games, regardless of where they are held, away league games, or the league semi finals, or final.
4. The PP entitles you to buy one ticket for each of our summer champo games (in both codes) from the Dublin Co Board. Where you buy it is entirely up to you. You can go into their Dorset St ticket office if you want, or you can just buy them online or at your local Supervalu. There is no merit in either way. There is no difference in price. I have always been able to get perfectly acceptable Hogan Stand tix online. Mind you, I book way in advance, so dunno how good/bad they are if you leave it 'till the last minute. If you go into the Dorset St office, you can select seats in specific sections and rows. You can't if you buy online or in Supervalu.
5. All Ireland Final ticket. If we make the final, you are entitled to buy an AI final ticket if you have a PP. As the AI final tickets do not go on sale to the general public, you have to go into Dorset St to pick this up, the week before the game. If you have a terrace PP, you'll get a Hill Ticket. If you have a stand PP, you'll get a ticket that could be anywhere in one of the stands. There does not seem to be one set spot for stand PP holders, the way there is for season ticket holders. During the AI champo, you can not ask for and get a stand ticket, if you only have a terrace PP. They are stricter on this in the summer, than they are during the league, presumably because the crowds are bigger.
So that is about it. Some people only buy the PP, as it saves them the hassle of trying to get an AI final ticket, if we make it that far. If they go to no club or league games, that is probably not good value for money. If you do go to club and/or league games, it is. Every one is different really.0 -

No fair play the question arises annually - I might even sticky that post once we have the concise entitlements nailed down
I'd preface my seating arrangement by saying I'm nearly always late into the Ticket Office - work commitments make it difficult to get in before the Friday and in the days when the Ticket office weren't as stringent (for the likes of the noughties semis) a number of passes could be redeemed by the one person aka me Dad
we were always in the Lower Cusack. Last time out I was in the Upper with the 10 year ticket holders sitting beside one of the Dubs brothers - was gas having to self censor your utterings :rolleyes: 0 -

Hah. First Dublin match I was at was hurlers playing Cork in 1973. Joey Towell, Matt Allen, Rehinshes maybe ? JBM. Cummins, Coghlan in red.
So don't need lectures about how to get to see them. Thanks all the same 0
