Crates

Does anyone remember people bringing in milk crates for kids to stand on to be able to see.
I saw some used at Anfield

In my young days it was going to the back corner of the Beehole and Longside, where you could find a loose brick or soon dig one out of the ground to stand/balance on. If you did right, you'd place the brick right upto the step at the end of the game to minimalist the chance of someone tripping on it.
