View Full Version : French Open: Who's going?
Loopy 10-17-2007, 09:57 AM Well, I'll be there, probably starting with the qualifications.
Who will be there? We can make a nice BC grouping.
I'll bring my videocam to record some matches too, especially the Wednesday matches :p
ianmercer89 10-17-2007, 11:39 AM i wanto go!! do you have tickets yet ifyou didhow and where and when can i get some i've been trying now for ages? how much is the trip costing you out of interst. any cheap hotels you can reommend? ian
Loopy 10-17-2007, 12:24 PM Well, I'm staying with my bro for some months for work, and I've been here for a few weeks. I didn't get tickets yet, I'll probably just buy them at the door. I very much doubt it'll be a sellout on the week. Maybe the weekend.
I don't know any hotel in paris, but I know a brand of cheap hotel. It's called Hotel Formule 1. These hotels are all standard, it's like living in a lego cube (joking). But they are quite okay for the price you pay.
MING PARIS 10-17-2007, 02:45 PM for saturday and sunday ticket A are sold out,
I have one ticket B for saturday 25euros and 2 b for local players at 20euro to sell
I am going too!MING
ianmercer89 10-17-2007, 02:48 PM i just ordered mine online. do they get sent in the post or pick up from the stadium on the day?
Syaoran_Style 10-17-2007, 03:05 PM I'm also going =)
Hope to meet you all there !
Dapperdan 10-28-2007, 11:53 AM First Post here Just to Say I'm going to, for the Friday and Saturday matches. Very much looking forward to it.
Can anyone recommend a good Badminton Store in Paris to? I'm thinking of doing some shopping!
Loopy 10-29-2007, 05:03 AM I'm just going for the weekdays, tuedays to maybe Friday.
Probably, they will put an in-store in the stadium. And maybe new prototype rackets :p
JustBad 10-29-2007, 05:10 AM There is no good badminton store in Paris, it really sucks...
To find stores, you have to ride outside the city. It's a shame :(
rexymania 10-29-2007, 06:34 AM iiiiiiiii..................test............
rexymania 10-29-2007, 06:35 AM hope rexy will continue until 2020.................

:crying:
That's disappointing. I hope they have an tournament store or something I need a bag! :D
I'll try to go Thursday to!
huangkwokhau 10-29-2007, 09:02 AM You guys should all get together and take pics for us here..too bad that I cant go to French....very tempted though!
robin7 10-29-2007, 09:42 AM I guess fastdrop will be there.
fastdrop 10-29-2007, 02:25 PM I guess fastdrop will be there.
I'm already in Paris. I also talked to Ming Paris for my ticket. The weather today is not very cooperative. It has been raining the whole day. I might see Ming tonite, if not, we will meet tomorrow morning at the Stadium. I hope it will be as enjoyable as the Denmark Open even without Hau-ge. He is on his way back to Hongkong. We had a grand time in Odense with Yannie.
I just hope both WCH and LCW can play. Win or loss does not really matter to me. Just want to see them play. They are always winners for me.:)

..please take pics with the local BC Paris/France members, if you guys are able to meet up & decide to do a mini get-together...There should be a few of them there (eg. Syaoran Style, Ekinox06210, ianmercer to name a few)..:cool:..Hope the weather will get better, fastdrop:cool:
*Hau-ge, i know it's a bit down the yrs, but you can try in 2010 where the World Championships will be held there..;):cool:

:p..you never know, i might be there also..:D;)
huangkwokhau 10-29-2007, 03:12 PM I am still in the lounge....will take off in 20 minutes...
Syaoran_Style 10-29-2007, 03:24 PM OMG my poor Fastdrop .. yeah it rained all day long, First time since august maybe !
I went to the hall today and saw some players warming up ! I was extremely delighted to see all the posters in the street with Taufik Hidayat. First time i see that in france ! ahaha It was really impressive !
In my opinion, the hall looks quite small compare to some big stadium in Asia. But in france they never liked to do BIG things, for instance in Paris we don't have any big buildings like Taipei 101, pretronas tower etc etc lol (we just have the eiffel tower ahah ).
Well hope to meet u there fastdrop and all the others coming =p
Loopy 10-29-2007, 05:24 PM Where are we meeting tomorrow (ie. Tuesday) ??
In the courtroom entrance?
I'll probably wear a black cap.
MING PARIS 10-29-2007, 05:38 PM ten oclock
at the entrance
MING
