The FIBA Experience

I am not a real basketball fan but I did enjoy the FIBA Asia games at the MOA Arena. Thanks to my mom and brother for the tickets. HAHA. I think I'm gonna be watching a lot of basketball now. Oh God, please take these distractions away from me. My classmates told be that the PBA Governor's Cup will start this Wednesday or Sunday(not sure) and I might get hooked up too.

We only got GenAd tickets so we have to go to the venue early to secure seats. Long lines welcomed us at 5pm. Luckily, we were still able to be seated by the courtside.

This is how we got the view. But really, it's not bad. You can still have a clear view of the game. Honestly, I liked to seat on this part, because all the people were so supportive, they start cheering and everyone else follows. Those seated at the reserved ones were not that active(not all, though).

They start with prayers as soon as they entered the court. 

I'm not a professional photographer, but I almost got this shot right there. Thanks to the balloons *sarcasm*. 

Seeing them cry after winning over South Korea makes my heart melt.

The BALLOONS. When we saw people giving away these on the other blocks, we ran for it as if our lives depend on it.

During the Gilas Pilipinas vs Kazakhstan match. This is just one of my three selfie shots. I wasn't able to take more because I was only with my brother. He's no fun with it.

I almost backed out on watching the semis because I have a Sunday class and it starts at 8am with an exam, but then my cousin-in-law said that she's coming with us So I still went. I wasn't able to review for my exam but thank GOD 'cause it was multiple choice. 

Unluckily, I wasn't able to have tickets for the finals night. I just watched it at home, and Gilas Pilipinas lost. But they gave one good fight against Iran. Still proud they took home the Silver. At least they're going to Spain. 

Till my next basketball adventure! XOXO. :)
