Early starter snaps up first Final ticket

Figure image
Chris Richardson from Enderby became the first Tigers supporter to get her hands on a Guinness Premiership Final ticket at 8.30 this morning, more than seven hours after arriving at Welford Road.

Tickets for the Twickenham clash with London Wasps on May 31 went on sale to season ticket holders today, with Chris at the front of a lengthy line.

“I knew I had to get up early and I couldn’t sleep so I thought I might as well come down to the car park,” said Chris, who was in situ outside the ground since 1.15am. “I knew then that at least I was already down here.

“I sat in the car park and saw three foxes. I had my duvet with me and a cup of coffee and I slept in the car.”

Chris, who has been a season ticket holder for 18 years and plans all her holidays around Tigers, will be hoping for a repeat of last year’s Premiership success, having been at Twickenham for the 44-16 win over Gloucester.
