Another opportunity to see an SP not in your usual neck of the woods was the method used by one of our number who used the alias anonyorks.
Like me, he was also a keen follower of a football team - I don't know which one - and he posted that he always looked forward to the third round of the F.A. Cup because it might mean his team was playing away on a ground where he'd never seen them play before. (Although I never met him, that's another thing that, beside punting, we had in common; sad or what?!) He'd do a Search of the locality of the game and, hopefully, find that he could combine pleasure with pleasure by finding a 'win-win situation!
I thought I'd try something similar a few years ago when my team had a midweek League game in the West Midlands. I checked out the Reviews on here of the local SPs and arranged to meet one who seemed to 'tick my boxes' on the morning after the game.
At least my team won the night before! I remember after I'd posted my Review, that some of the local punters pointed out that a reason why there hadn't been any recent Reviews - the most recent was at least a couple of years old - was that her Service had gone downhill latterly.
