Special Group Joy and Safety in Stadiums – GEASE-FLA

Vice-Presidency of Planning

Report No. 40/08

NOTE:

We apologize to those who follow us for the delay in releasing this report.

Due to technical problems we were unable to release it in a timely manner.

1) TICKET SALES

We emphasize the importance of having guides at the ticket offices, because even with the ticket sales scheme being widely publicized in newspapers and on the radio, a large number of fans were uninformed about it.

Understanding that a considerable portion of fans do not have the habit or the possibility of accessing the media, we consider it essential to use efficient visual programming and the use of guides.

We also encourage fans to arrive at least two hours in advance to avoid crowds. Fans purchasing half-price tickets should bring the required documents with them. Please note that purchases for children under 14 can only be made with the presence of a legal guardian, who must have the child's ID or birth certificate. If they are not related, the guardian must bring a legal guardianship document issued by the Juvenile Court.

We once again remind fans to avoid buying tickets from scalpers to avoid embarrassment. Currently, the ticket sales process is computerized. Therefore, our professionals can determine the card's origin using the card's identification number.

We also remind you that minor fans over 14 years old who purchase a half-price ticket must have an identity document and a document proving that they are studying (tuition fee slip or certificate proving that they are attending school, when public).

2) PUBLIC ACCESS TO THE STADIUM

Traffic at the entrances to Maracanã Stadium was a bit heavier after 16:00 p.m. Those arriving by subway had no problems, despite the heavy traffic. This mode of transportation is certainly the most convenient and safest.

3) STADIUM ENTRANCE

Entry continues to be confusing, starting two hours before kickoff. The lack of visual guidance and guides makes it difficult for fans to access the stadium.

4) PUBLIC

O public was from 37.074 payers quality 40.259 gifts. TO income was R$ 679.117,00.

Game Summary/Boardboard:

http://www.cbf.com.br/flamengoxvasco

Medical Department - 33 cases were recorded, 5 for sutures and 6 for trauma and abrasions and 1 knee dislocation.

The Medical Department urges fans taking medication for hypertension, diabetes, or various other conditions to come properly medicated or bring their own. A football match is a thrilling experience! So, it's best to come prepared and prepared!

SUDERJ –

Damaged chairs:

21 yellow ones on the Vasco fans' side, 5 yellow ones on the Flamengo fans' side and 5 white ones.

We ask for help from the organized fan groups located in the yellow sector to advise fans about the consequences of this act, which is being observed through cameras.

Any fan caught vandalizing stadium property will be detained and brought to summary trial. Fans from organized fan groups may be punished.

JECRIM – There were two incidents: one for an obscene act and one for a crime against the popular economy.

5) ORGANIZED FANS

We remind fans that Maracanã's internal and external monitoring system is fully operational. Therefore, all acts of harm to property and citizens are being monitored and recorded and will be used as evidence against the offenders.

Fans, think before taking any harmful action!

6) MAIN OCCURRENCES

After two years of hard work and dedication to improving the quality of fan service, GEASE-FLA feels rewarded by the recognition granted by the foremost authority on the subject, Mr. Marco Aurélio Klein. We believe that with your participation, we can finally achieve the results we aspire to and the respect this work deserves.

7) PARKING

We remind fans once again that anyone who parks on the sidewalks of the stadium's side streets runs a significant risk of having their car towed. Parking attendants, upon seeing the tow trucks, disappear unpunished. Be aware!

O UERJ parking lot is a good option, but fans should arrive early. Other options include Rua General Canabarro and cross streets, the Extras parking lot on Rua Mariz e Barros and Av. Maracanã, and the underground parking lot of the Administrative Center (Piranhão).

Previously, residents of the streets adjacent to Eurico Rabelo Street had to deal only with the problem of parking attendants, who would instruct drivers to park in the most unlikely places possible. Often, residents could only enter their homes through the garage if a tow truck was called. But now, on top of that, another issue arises.

Law enforcement has been curbing street vendor activity in the surrounding area, but apparently this means banning them from selling on Eurico Rabelo Street, Maracanã Avenue, and part of Radial Oeste Avenue. The solution is simple, then: the cross streets now have a plethora of street vendors who have moved there. This problem used to be quite common only on Isidro de Figueiredo Street, which is no longer the case.

8) TRAFFIC IN THE SURROUNDING AREA

After the game, cars on Rua São Francisco Xavier and Rua Prof. Manuel de Abreu moved in slow motion. In other words, traffic was very chaotic.

9) GEASE ACTIONS

GEASE-FLA has joined the World Diabetes Day campaign, which will take place on November 14th. Visit www.diamundialdodiabetes.org.br to learn how to participate!

GEASE-FLA has entered into an unprecedented partnership with the Brazilian Red Cross, RJ branch, to train volunteers in first aid and provide guidance to fans in the event of incidents in stadiums.

GEASE-Fla has already made the results of the survey with fans available on its website www.gease-fla.com.br.

We are in contact with SUDERJ and GEPE, seeking alternatives that provide fans attending the game with basic comfort conditions. We believe that the right to purchased seats is a key factor in finding adequate logistics, and we know that these agencies have the necessary expertise.

We remind you twistedr, especially those accompanied by minors, who seek to buy the ticket in advance or, if you do it on the day of the game, arrive early to avoid crowds. ticket offices and turnstiles. O GEASE-FLA, in partnership with FLATV and SUDERJ, is looking to entertain fans who arrive early with videos and goals.

O fan who wants to send messages, whether complaints, reports, questions or suggestions regarding the Flamengo games at Maracanã, can do it, accessing the website of GEASE-FLA (www.gease-fla.com.br) and clicking on Ombudsman Office. O GEASE-FLA will be happy to clarify any doubts and provide the necessary information.

Attention to fans who wish to participate as volunteers at Maracanã. Show your interest by visiting our website (www.gease-fla.com.br), clicking on “volunteers” and registering.
