A long morning at Parc B: securing my 2025/26 “Pelouse” season pass

Hello steemains,

When the club posted this reminder that season-ticket sales were continuing Monday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM at the Hassan Belkhoja Complex (Parc B) for 200 Tunisian dinars per person, it felt like the start of a little ritual that every committed fan secretly loves, because beyond the simple transaction there is the promise of a full year of entrances, routines, songs, and shared breaths in the same bowl of light, and that promise is exactly what pulled me out the door.

Arriving at Parc B under a clean, bright sky, I stood by the wall where the words ESPERANCE SPORTIVE are cut into the stone, and, while the morning heat slowly collected on the pavement, I felt that quiet mixture of pride and impatience that always comes right before you take care of something that matters, the kind of administrative errand that somehow does not feel administrative at all because it’s wrapped in colors you have loved for years.

Before joining the line I stopped at the memorial mural for Hédi Berkhissa, alongside the portrait of a supporter, and in that short moment the day seemed to stretch backward into the club’s history, reminding me that our tickets and scarves and songs are merely today’s chapters in a longer story of courage and devotion, and that going to the stadium is not just entertainment but also an act of remembrance.

Moving along the perimeter, I passed the long façade where ESPERANCE SPORTIVE DE TUNIS is spelled out in sober metal letters, and those few words, simple and almost austere, delivered the feeling that this place is both a home for today’s teams and an archive for everything that came before them, so that every visit is half appointment and half pilgrimage.

Once my turn came and my payment was processed, I did what every supporter does without even thinking about it held the Pelouse season pass up toward the crest on the gate and took the ritual photo because the card is more than plastic, it is a key that opens not only the turnstiles but also an entire calendar of Saturdays and nights and midweek surprises, where the noise begins in the chest and ends somewhere high above the Curva.

The front of the card printed for the 2025/2026 season and personalized with my name feels sturdy and well finished, and as soon as I slid it into my wallet I could already hear the gates at Radès clicking open in my head, because a card like this is not just an entry credential but a companion that accumulates tiny scratches and memories as the months pass.

Before the final printing was completed I was given a handwritten receipt confirming the 200 DT payment, which is a small but comforting piece of paper that says the process is underway and that patience—together with a bottle of water while the sun does its work—is all that remains between you and a season of homecomings.

Because some readers track their spending in Steem, I used the given rate of 1 DT = 2.47 STEEM, which means the Pelouse season pass priced at 200 DT represents an equivalent of 200 × 2.47 = 494 STEEM, a figure that neatly frames the investment not as a cost but as an advance payment on months of collective joy, spontaneous friendships in the queue, and the comfort of a familiar seat where the chants roll forward like waves.

With the card safely tucked away and the receipt folded in my pocket, I left Parc B already imagining that first walk up the steps when the stadium opens into view and the pitch glows under the lights, and I promised myself that, every time I cross those turnstiles this season, I will remember this morning and the reasons we keep coming back with loyalty, memory, and the simple happiness of being part of something larger than ourselves.
