These are wonderful threads to connect a nation together. Just recall any day of India –Pakistan match. People would love those games not because they are games, but because the excitement around them. I am sure the fathers of the games, had put in lot of thought in to design, implement and encourage these games for they also serve the purpose of integrating a nation.
The Joy brought with these games is amazing. People love a breath-taking match than a mere one side game. Any game whose result you can predict become a just a count in some team’s win/lose list.
Remember the Mexican waves that storm in the stadiums, believe me, it is a lot more fun being a part of that than just watching it over a TV sitting on your couch and munching some junk potatoes.
I recall the awesome final of India Pakistan T20 world cup match. It was really amazing.
People were out on streets and dancing, literally!
I don’t see any other occasion or event that can bring in this kind of oneness in a nation.
Long Live Sports & Games.
Long Live Sports personnel.
And,
Long Live the Spirit!
