A diehard Wales supporter has been given a refund on their $A182 ticket after complaining about an embarrassingly bad view from her seat.
Jane Petterson took to social media during Wales' Six Nations match against Wales in Cardiff over the restricted view she had at Principality Stadium.
"When you go to a theatre you get an advisory note that (your) seat has a restricted view. Principality Stadium and the Welsh Rugby Union had no such scruples in taking £93 from me for this view. As a lifelong rugby follower I expected to actually see the match," Petterson tweeted.

Her tweet soon caught the attention of hundreds of rugby fans, equally outraged about the seating location.
"An absolute disgrace … Daylight robbery!" a Twitter user replied.
Adding salt to the wound, Wales were defeated by France 27-23.
Welsh Rugby Union later got in touch with Petterson and offered her a partial refund, which caught her by surprise.
"Wow, completely mindblown at the power of twitter! Welsh Rugby Union called today," Petterson said.
"Said there'd been a 'pricing error' with my seat and they refunded me $100! Have suggested that they show the actual seat view and charge less for that seat in future. Cheers for all the support."
