What does not amuse me is the prospect that they might make students buy those tickets.
Let's see if they can suppress the reports if that happens.

80,000... 350 schools.
229 tickets per school?

I have no objection to the promotion of the local youth sporting scene.... but the students ought to be given the choice as to whether or not they want to go.

Yeah, but if that happens, you can count on the local media putting a different spin on it, i.e., "YOG tickets sell like hotcakes as students and parents trip over themselves to snap them up." -

80000 is less than half of the available tickets.then again, most people I know either don't know about the yog or don't give a shit.

Before or after cooking?
In any event, that's a lot of meat, even for 40 individuals.

Well, I predict the YOG to be a washout.
Right now I see the damn YOG buses on campus every day.... they hired the same bus company that provides the buses for NUS shuttle services.
The way they handled the whole YOG bus issue is one big f**kup.... by emblazoning the windscreens with 'GIVE WAY' in large bold characters, and threatening motorists who don't give way with fines, what kind of message are they sending out?
Would it kill them to just put out a press statement to kindly ask motorists to give way to YOG buses where possible? Sheesh.

only worry is ever since tat ultra rainy week, it's not really eating well.
