No, as I live in the Tron('The City of the future, today!'). But attend all Auckland and Hamilton matches, also manage to get to a handful of games at the cake tin each year. 

I have an amazing ability to find my way out of mazes. I'm pathological.

Yes and no. I live in Palmerston North and been a season ticket holder for the last seven years. Decided to buy Nix Six pack this year as I didn't think I would make it to all games plus the two games being moved. I'll be getting to eight games this season. Only doing Saturday games due to getting home so late but will go to final Sunday home game as it falls on Easter weekend.

No as I live in Qld. Have been to a few in Wellington but have for the last 10 years  traveled around Oz watching the Nix  and on average watched 7/8 games a year. Only place I never went to was Perth.

Decided not to do it this season but the way we are playing I might regret it.

Yes, I attend every match in New Zealand and let nothing stop me short of a Wedding.  In fact I've missed 3 matches in the last 8 years, 2 of them because I was best man at a Wedding (+1 in Dunedin).  This weekend I'll be attending with a broken foot (cast came off yesterday) and my foot in a moonboot

No, I've only been to one Nix game at the cake tin. Our first A-League game ever (2007), against Victory (2-2), while I lived in Blenheim.

Since then, been to almost every single Nix game in Melbourne, as I spent 8 years there.

Also saw them once in Brisbane (in 2008 - we lost 3-2, after being up 1-0 and 2-1).

Been to the games played at QBE and Mt Smart, since I moved to Auckland in 2016. And will obviously be going to Eden Park next month.

Not anymore. Didn't miss a game for 7 odd years but since the birth of my sun I've had to pick and choose which games I go to. Now that he's getting a bit older I'm finally returning to the cake tin on a more regular basis. The added bonus is that he likes coming with me and has already watched 2 Nix games, the infamous Heraf game v Japan and a bunch of TW games too!

I went to every Westpac match for the 1st 8 years. I was obsessed in the 1st few years and missed my cousin's wedding for a game, which I now regret. These days I go to a game if I'm in town and someone else will join me. But I've kept my season membership every year so they're getting my money anyway.

Been going since the first game when I was 5 years old. I used to sit in silver back then, right next to the Fever Zone. Got hooked on both the Nix and the chanting and the rest is history. Nothing outside Wellington though

Fantastic to see more and more young fans coming out. I'm at UoA myself and I certainly wish that the university-aged demographic was better represented in football in the country, I've been hard pressed to find someone my age at Kiwitea Street

To answer the question though, no, I'm a ACFC regular but attend Nix games whenever they come up here, and go to the occasional Westpac game.
