Backdated post-- Live Tennis Match 30 Dec 07

A backdated post.. Was rummaging through my photos, and came upon the photos..
The story 0f the free tickets goes...

It was a usual Sunday when Ed will come over to my house and just slack around.. We will usually shop around Junction 8 in the afternoon.... While checking out the Nike shop, Observant Ed realise that the outlet is giving out free admission tickets to the Maria Sharapova match that evening with just any purchase...

Just nice, I got myself a Nike pouch at $40++ and we got 2 tickets.. But the clause is that admission is not guaranteed and it is on a first come first serve basis..

So we got home and kiasu us, g0t ready at about 430pm heading to our destination (Indoor stadium at Kallang).. my goodness, it was raining heavily while we were queuing outside since 6pm.. After an hr wait, we finally got in! We got quite a decent seat where we can really see the STARS... a pity, ed did not manage to get home and get the 10x optical zoom camera..

This being my first time watching a live tennis match.. Was initally quite bored at the start.. But I am really amazed that Maria can make such an impactful sound when she do the serving and smacking... The final outcome: Maria won after an intense fight!

The closest photo that I can get Maria from where I seat... (in the bottom left She's dressed in a maroon top )
