Got my ticket, with extra one

It’s just three days away from a national holiday here in the Philippines as once again, boxing icon Manny Pacquiao takes on Joshua Clottey of Ghana on Saturday (Sunday PHI time). In the last three fights of Manny, I watched all of these in Gaisano Mall Cinema along J.P. Laurel Ave. here in Davao City. And early this week, I was thinking of trying it somewhere else for a change. But, just as I was about to decide, I saw an ad in Gaisano Grand Citimall in Ilustre St. (Formerly JS Gaisano Ilustre) that they are showing it live on their cinema. All you have to do is buy any combination of Head and Shoulders products and for every P150 of purchase, you have one ticket. Great deal, right? So, I didn’t think twice anymore and grab a couple of tickets right away. The other one was supposedly intended for my big bro but he told me he could not go with me. And so is my father. Thus, I got an extra one here.

Everytime Manny Pacquiao has a boxing match, almost everybody here in the Philippines are glued on the seats as nobody would like to miss a single action. So on my way to Gaisano Mall Cinema last Sunday for the much anticipated battle between Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto of Puerto Rico, I took a few shots along the major thoroughfares of Davao City. Remember, I took these photos on the central business district of Davao around two hours before the main event and you’ll notice that the city became virtually a ghost town.
