 Ok, not athletic, just live
table football! by timtregenza
Ticket availability varies considerably, depending on opposition and the position of Athletic in the League.
In general
1) Games against Basque opposition (Osasuna, Alaves, Real Sociedad) are difficult to get into
2) Games against Barcelona and Real Madrid are hard to get into except when they are made "club days" (i.e. when Members have to pay for their tickets too.
3) Other games are noramlly available.
Tickets are available from BBK cashpoints with full qwerty keyboards. You do not have to be a member of BBK to use this option. Alternatively go to the ticket office at San Mames. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

The teams that go to San Mames don´t play against a football team; they play against a Nation. Leave a Comment

If you find yourself in Bilbao during the season, go and watch a game of Atletic de Bilbao, it has great atmosphere. Leave a Comment Theme: Sports Watching

If you are in Bilbao for a while, you may well want to have a swim (or be invited to play a sport).
Around Bilbao there are a number of polideportivos (sports centres) owned by the Council. They have a common electronic booking process (online).
To swim, you just pay for an entrance to the facilities, for other things (e.g. football) you have to pay for the pitch/court as well.
If you are going more than once it is best to buy a "Bono" of 5 or 10 entrances. A single entrance is over 5 Euro, but a bono of 10 makes the cost of entry about 3 Euro an entrance. Leave a Comment

if you come over to Bilbao on a weekend and Athetic Club plays at home, g to Licenciado Poza street a while before the match starts (specially if it´s saturday evening) and go for a couple of drinks in the numerous bars surrounf¡ding San Mames Stadium (known as The Cathedral), you´ll mmeet the local people in their favourite passion: football&bars!!!!!
