mcdonaldisation of the football experience
today i watched soccer with kunhui, mark and his gf rochelle at hougang green mall's 24 hr mcdonald's. i must say that it was a refreshing experience, compared to watching at kopitiams/pubs.
1. mcdonald’s for the first time was actually crowded. not the normal crowded. but crowded as in every available space had pple either sitting down or standing to watch. it was amazing how the staff could just bring in chairs and put at any space for pple to sit. even outside the store, they actually borrowed chairs from a neighbouring store for the spectators to watch.
2. it was the first time i watched soccer with kids and families. that is to say aunties. it's rather comic as they laughed at things which they thought were silly and they screamed at the slightest opportunity. haha. think mcdonald’s had provided these young boys to watch soccer in a comfortable environment, as compared to pubs/kopitiams.
it's kinda late, so i'll keep it short.
i'm loving it!
