Yeah.. ..the place looks full; that's one thing to be happy about...Hmm, hope there was air conditioning inside the hall....Anyone permitted to smoke inside, during the tourney??..If so, i can't imagine the people bearing thru cigarette puffs & inhaling the smoke..
Hmm, i see.. ..must be like during the recent WC, then...Although people didn't smoke inside the actual playing hall, but they were smoking just outside, in the hallway..
No AC inside the building... We were just hoping for the rain to start, then the stadium suddenly becomes colder... otherwise, hot hot hot... As the background noise, we hear Javanese music being played by the audience with their their thundersticks... Only in Indonesia!
Check out this photo I found... Cool photo of Yoke! I think these scenes were from the Quarterfinals...
Maria Febe in Kejurnas She has gotten so thin... She needs to eat more hamburgers & fries or something, ha ha ha...
Got it.. ..wow, must be like a sauna in there...That's what i call "old skool" INA Kejurnas; no AC, no fans, just pure humid and hot weather..
Self Portrait I like the self portrait of our BC Hero who endured the heat and the smoke to bring us these pics! Keep it up taufik-ist! Nice to know your namesake remains the champ!
ha..ha ...we spent 2 or 3 bottles each( 500 ml) of green tea ... maybe the temp. of inside stadium was 35 - 40 degrees of celcius
thank.. loh... those days were my finest days of my whole days of this year .. i could take a pic with some world class players and also stood side by side with them .. and i met with the legendary hau-ge and krisna
Olde Skool INA Kejurnas Hot temperature... humid weather... hot weather suddenly turn into rain and thunder outside the stadium... loud-enthusiastic-opinionated fans... fans making collective music in during points... screaming girls when their favorite male athlete make difficult lunges... scalpers overcharging tickets... organizers allowing more spectators without any concern for stampede or fire risks... enthusiastic fans scrambling to buy shirts and rackets at discounted prices... fans hugging and kissing their favorite athletes (like Luluk and Sony..., somehow they appeal well to the Solo masses... )... however, let's also include this... badminton played with world level skills... badminton played with passion... badminton played with pride... badminton played with wit, tactics, and mental warfare... [you should see how young Tommy intentionally want to make Taufik angry and loose focus] badminton played with tricks shots... badminton played with deception-moves... badminton played with natural talent, individual flair, and showmanship... ...truly "olde skool" INA Kejurnas...
I delighted that you enjoyed yourself so much! Keep up the fond memories and keep going...even to other neighbouring countries... to be with your 'legendary' heroes.
Hau-ge and I are 'legendary'? Maybe 'legendary fans'?!? We do know a lot of the INA national players by now...
he..he sorry for misundertanding .. what i meant is [yes you're right] legendary fans.. hauge is willing to fly to other countries to watch badminton tournaments and to give us pics, reports, a live score and krisna, you have very good and 'deep' knowledge about ina badminton and and you are also willing to 'sacrifice' yourself to get married with 4 china WS in order to improve ina ws division if it is possible.. those make you become legendary fans..he..he
After you have met me, do you think Wang Lin, Wang Yihan, etc. will choose to marry me or follow Li Yongbo? I think I can provide them with love and lifestyle that Li Yongbo never can... Furthermore, in China, in order to play for as the 1st priority team, they have to wait until Xie Xinfang, Zhang Ning, Zhu Lin, and Lu Lan retire... In INA, they will play as INA's 1st team immediately...
