I went to Wanderers Grounds a couple years ago. It was a Tuesday night game that was rain delayed by an hour, so I just took an Uber from my AirBnB to the game. I would like to go back during a game where the stadium is full and the weather is good to get a better experience but I enjoyed it.

My ticket was in 106 which was close to the supporters end without being in the supporters end. Hung out pregame with the person who ran Block 108 Ultras and got to hear some good stories about some of the supporter drama they've had over the years. Vibe was decent but it felt like more of a hockey crowd to me compared to Spruce. Both supporters groups chanted over each other all game. Some in the crowd were aghast at the "#### you Kieran Baskett" chants which I got a chuckle out of. Don't know if that matters to most but I'm interested in that type of thing as I like to hear what other supporters groups do at games.

The stadium was pretty bare bones when I went. Just some bleachers on a grass field. There was a bar in the corner by the supporters and a couple food trucks. Beers were discounted before the game. There's no running water so enjoy the portapotties. I think they've made a few changes but not in the bathroom / food /drink side of things.

The stadium is close to downtown so I think a lot of people go somewhere downtown and then walk up the hill to the stadium. Think there are a bunch of pubs and restaurants a 10 minute walk away.
