The funny round thing that made 25 men run after it..
The 32 international teams that start off the every 4 years once kick off
The large colorful human mob that goes wild..
The time when the internet traffic ironically becomes slower after Starhub and Singtel TV charges $70 to $90 for a month of football frenzy.
World Cup is such such a big thing.
The official WC 2010 song
Waka Waka (This time for Africa)
The song that was used in the Coca Cola ad..
K'NAAN - Wavin' Flag (Coca-Cola Celebration Mix)
*****
A snippet from 1998,
When autobiographies were such a hit among the graduating classes.
When I was utterly and hopelessly addicted to WC 1998..
Back then,
I religiously woke up in the middle of the night to packs and containers of Pringles and Pocky bought or won from "bets" with my brothers and cousins.
Memorised the names of every single player from the Brazil and Holland team..
And hated the France team just because they beat Brazil in the finals..
Those were the times...
And that addiction is back to stay..
All thanks to that Man U fan
-.-
P/S: Why must Brazil meet Holland at such an early stage..??!!
