Crows semi-final tickets sell out after fans camp out overnight

Adelaide Oval is set to host a second consecutive sold-out crowd this Friday night as the Crows face Hawthorn in their sudden-death semi-final. 

The scramble for tickets saw dedicated fans camping out overnight despite the cold, with breakfast burgers shared as the queue grew. 

"It's been a long night, cold bloody night," supporter John Thompson said.

The demand extended beyond the Entertainment Centre, with fans vying for tickets online at home and in workplaces.

In the end, general admission tickets were exhausted just 20 minutes after being released at 3pm.

The high demand has resulted in significant costs for Hawthorn supporters travelling from Melbourne to Adelaide, with flights costing more than $1000. 

A similar situation could face Adelaide fans should the Crows win on Friday night.
