Most women loathe it. The punters in that demographic however love it.
Orchard Road gets remarkably quieter during the evening, and now even on rainy days (well, if you haven't heard the news, it flooded like at least a foot high along the main stretch lately). Men skip family plans, using up whatever concessions or bag bribes they have offered to their wives, girlfriendss or family, all in pursuit of their passion. The restaurants, bars and coffeeshops reports a higher income.
All for that one month.
What are we talking about?
22 men running after one ball.
In some matches, there can be 22 multi-millionaires. It's the world cup.
And i'm not loving it. Maybe because i'm part of the deployment. I see the uglier side to things, and the demands by other humankind get real fugly. So much so that it makes me respect the customer service reps a whole lot more. So now that deployment is well on its way, i'm planning for the days ahead.
With bated breath, i sit planning my road, as i wait for the rush for the EPL, and a whole brand new slew of complaints.
Be nice, people!
