Nice easy one.

Top of my list is a curtain raiser. VFL, TAC Cup, whatever.

Second is a return to the old pre-match entertainment of Princes Park at Carlton home games.

This would include:

- Captain Carlton cutting laps of the 'G in a hovercraft, followed by him punting little footballs into the stands, sending said areas of the stand into a frenzy

- 16 bit graphic reproductions of the players profile shots as a pre game preview touting the possible match-ups with 'Hot, Hot, Hot' playing in the background.

- A shuffle of 'Blue' by Eifel 65 and 'The People' by the Music playing at all times.

Any other things?

But I bet he was worth a stack of $$$$$$$$$$ - I still remember buying peanuts from him most weeks in the Heatley Stand, he had that real deep voice

"Peanuts"............, "Peanuts"

A true character :thumbsup:

The pre-recorded club song matching the song sung by the players.

Or preferably, the song sung by the players matching the pre-recorded song.

Little known fact about the Peanut Man is that he used to work for the "Liberated Newsagency" in the City during the week pedalling all the latest in legal (and probably illegal) pornography and marital aids. :wink:

Clearly from my generation :thumbsup:

I will always associate 'The People' by the Music to the old days at Princes Park when they would blast it out pre-game.

Coffee order pre game..give e'm your seat no. and pay.
Then they deliver to your seat.
Those queues are unbelievable at quarter or half time.

Raffle to go on and toss the coin at home games.
That means incentive to go early..and probably sell a fair few tickets for the club.

So either way, he got you emptying your nutsack.

Now there's a man who knew his true mission in life.

Replace 'my kids' with 'Standing in the Pratt Stand with a full strength beer' and +1.
