783969 2009-06-20 07:14:00 Why do the ignorant Auckland journalists insist on referring to the Westpac Stadium in Wellington as the "Cake Tin"? :(

Am I alone in my disgust at this practice?

Are they jealous that we have a decent stadium and they don't?

783976 2009-06-20 08:25:00 Calm down son. People all around the country call it the Cake Tin. Its pretty ironic that you label us ignorant but hate the 'label' given to your stadium.
