AND HERE'S WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT IT:

" Just wanted to say thanks for a great time at the Aussie game when I was in Melbourne.  I had a great time.

I was over in Melbourne on business by myself and I'm a huge American football fan.  I love to try new things so I thought it would be fun to take in some of the local sporting events.  I thought the idea of going with someone that new the rules and the game itself was a great concept.  I didn't hesitate!  It was the highlight of my trip and I would recommend it to anyone in Australia or traveling to Melbourne.
Anthony was a great host and we had a great time.  Once back in the States, I kept up with the games through the internet. Thanks again for the great time.
Michael Paul" October 2005
