..."why are they flying high? because there's no one up there to shoot them down"...

DLSU - ADMU part 5. Sudden death sunday. Gate attendance a whopping 23,000, beating the previously held 20,000 people back in DLSU - ADMU finals game when ADMU broke the 5-peat bid by DLSU. Upper B tickets were being sold by scalpers for 1,200, while patron seats came to as much as 6,000 (and some people actually buy them...)... i sold mine to esme and joe, esme gave the price of 500 for both upper a tickets, in addition, reserving good seats for us..


joe: dude, you're not wearing blue!
volt: my dad wore my green shirt. see?
joe: are you medium? i'll buy you a green shirt once my parents get here.


and he did. mei uniform na ko sa DLSU games. ateneo kept chanting "wrong spelling" while la salle chanted "NU" so as not to be outdone... it was a seesaw battle, runs made by DLSU to start the first, but run made by Ateneo to end it, so score was close. Ateneo held the lead for a while, but after an offensive outburst, DLSU got the lead back.

eto na. halftime break. in spurts, Ateneans chanted "wrong spelling" to the DLSU pep squad. once Ateneo was up, someone from the middle of the DLSU crowd rolled open a huge tarp which was about 4 feet tall and was held by about 10 people in length... it read:

"#392 #488 'nuf said!"

the rowdy Ateneo crowd was humbled for a few moments... and thought of another chant: "Suspended!!" sayang... di ko agad naisip un banner ko...

"Suspended nga kami, nag-CHAMPION ba KAYO?"

anyway, in the game of runs, Ateneo made their final push through free throws, while la salle kept it close by missing their charities... but just when it seemed DLSU can't make a shot, Cholo Villanueva came through with crucial baskets that gave cushion to the DLSU lead. i saw the title for this blog in form of a shirt of a girl in front of me... the game wasn't over til it's over, as Baclao made a 3-pointer to cut the lead to 2.. casio made good on both his free throws which basically gave the win to DLSU...


3 - 2 is the final count for the season 70 showdown between the two teams... 3 should be greater than 2, but only 2 games mattered most....


after-game party showed Rasa's Araneta filled with overjoyed La Sallites outside while dejected Ateneans were either inside or at Dencio's... their cheers when Atenean friends went over? "Go NU!!!" or "Ang cold cold nya!!!".. haha...

UAAP basketball... makes grownups act their most childish.... haha....


La Salle Uncle (no, not the manager): dpat pala next game lower box bilhin natin dahil UE kalaban
voLt: tama! malamang di nila kaya bumili ng tickets para dun!
chorus + high five: nyahahahahaahahahahaha....
