  (HIST30060) Empty Footy Games and Empty Supermarket Shelves

  (HIST30060) As an avid footy fan, it was upsetting and very strange to see the 2020 AFL season starting without being able to attend the game at the MCG, or there be anyone in the seats when watching it on tv. This post reflects this strange moment in AFL history, but also the coinciding rush on supermarkets, particularly toilet paper, leaving lots of shortages and empty supermarket shelves. I still don't understand why seemingly everyone in Victoria and Australia decided they needed to stock up on toilet paper, but it was definitely an aspect of a very strange and stressful period at the start of the pandemic.

  The COVID-19 pandemic caused Americans to stock up on toiletries due to the chance of these items not being available if quarantine was to occur. The image is in black and white to symbolize the hard times the world is currently facing. #REL101
