But the Adelaide oval is a cricket ground (the world's best), among other things, so I'm entitled to call it one. ;)

Post 10

you're entitled to call it a pink elephant refinery if you so wish.

But the name is still Adelaide oval

Post 12

There are no pink elephants there, but they do play cricket there. :)

Another long-term Adelaide resident (17 years) adding their 2c worth - I've always known it as "the Adelaide Oval".

psst....up there...yeah, it's the title of the thread.

Yeah, that's okay - I understand you've been in Adelaide for a while now. I got out while I still could. :-D

He's right, I didn't say it wasn't called Adelaide Oval? I just called it a cricket ground (which it also is). ;)

Quote from rec:
I jumped for joy when I saw this photo of the Adelaide cricket ground...

in that case, you're still wrong. you're either calling it 'adelaide cricket ground', or you're saying it's THE adelaide cricket ground, suggesting it's the only one. in both cases you're wrong :P

Post 20

I'm calling it a cricket ground, because that's what it is, despite what the actual name of the cricket ground is. Stupid argument really.

Besides, as far as cricket grounds in Adelaide go, it is the cricket ground. ;)

Post 21

I approve of this rec bashing.

I reckon the tour I did of the Marylebone Cricket Club ground was better.
