Does anyone know what row the seating on the top deck of the southern stand goes back to?

the air is very thin up there..... best be bringing an oxygen tank. . . .

a sleeping bag and a few sherpa's should get you up there in time for the game

row a-z
then starts at AA-ZZ
think SS is the last row .

my mate was up there last week and had to come down and stand.
1st game back for 20 yrs. from the states.
saw a photo of the "new Southern stand and didnt think it was that high.
he now suffers vertigo.

and he's been to some of the biggest stadium in the world around USA and swears thats the highest he's ever been .

number as in bay number:?
bays same as other areas- just the number of seats in the row increases- GSS- 1- 27 bay numbers
Ponsford 28- 36
Northern 50- 57/58?

Rows go in Alphabet-
A at front - as is M level- to Z then they double- AA BB etc.
will be the same in the upper levels,
have only walked up there once in teh Ponsford stand- and needed both hands to make it with no crowd.... didn;'t note what letters it got to.

Make sure you go to the toilet before the journey up.

was about to say that;;;;;;;;;; and if you end up middle of row- and have to squeeze past anyone

I look at the MCC where people of any age may end up up there -- after queueing since dawn.
