The Stadium Experience!!!

Semis of IPL shifted last min to Mumbai....
Weekly off shifted to Wednesday from Thursday and there comes a call: Me getting tickets for Mumbai-Bangalore you have an off so lets go. Ok calls and calls ok done lets go.
Call 2: Can you check for tickets online??
Ok pretty decent seats done...
Left for stadium to find chaos and chaos lots of it. One parking corner to other, one gate to another and Kms long line and a SEA of people. To top it rite from security to Police no one knows a shit as to whats happening. One counters opened and shuts after 2 hrs.. next one open again closes.. Finally no option but to let all in without redeemed tickets..
Got into rebel mode and fought with security and fortunately amongst first few animals to get into the stands.. Pluss guys thank the Helicopter celebrities for shortening their lines..
Once in the stands we got to choose the seats and trust me the best ever ones :P
Our initial frustration was smoothened by the first glimpses of the superstars of the evening and surprisingly we could see every minute details and see Sachin and Kumble and Dravid and Bhajji ..
Play started and wow just too amazing to watch, Oh how could I forget the deafening noises for 5 hours surely deafened by the end. But was it amazing to dance and Jump out on every boundary and the biggies. (The Cheerleaders were also rite there shaking their legs) The stadium all digitalized and the marketing around and the entire Royal blue color and all the Gallis and profanity hitting the highest TRP's and not to forget the cricket in itself..
An experience way too memorable, if only I could manage to go for Finals :)
