Did You Know?
Braces, or suspenders, were almost universally worn due to the high cut of men's trousers. Belts did not become common until the 1920s. — MJ

Attending the Match

Attending the match is made affordable to all—though like many things in life, you get what you pay for. Seating can be found in both public and private boxes.

PUBLIC BOXES:

For only a sickle, working class individuals can snag themselves a seat in a box with five long benches, designed to fit seven bodies but ticketed as if they fit eight, are positioned one behind the other without any staging, making the frontmost bench the place to be. These are generally a bit below the level of play, causing a fair amount of neck-craning for those in attendance. The only food present is what's been brought in by spectators, and Merlin help you if you need the toilet.

For a galleon, those of the middle class can buy seat in a box just below or right at the level of play, with five padded benches seating six apiece have been staggered so that, barring a very tall individual, no views will be obscured. Your perks include a vanishing house for individuals to do thier business, and every so often, a scraggly-looking vendor will pop in with sweets for sale.

For four galleons, you can have a seat with other members of the upper class can purchase a seat in one of the plusher boxes, where individual cushioned chair[s] and complementary opera quidditch glasses provide an excellent view of the action. The discreet, plumbed bathroom is an added bonus, as is the small, never-ending spread of sandwiches, cakes, and punch in the corner. These boxes are all at the ideal altitude for viewing the game.

available group threads


PRIVATE BOXES:
Private boxes are both finite and pricey—more than merely multiplying the ticket cost by 20-30 seats in a box.. There are eight MC-calibre privates and ten UC-calibre ones available on a first come, first served basis. Private boxes are available first come, first served.
