Whom to stalk in IPL?

Hooting. Howling. Hat-trick.
I watched the repeat telecast of last evening's match. Today's match was about to begin in the next hour.
I turned the volume down when my friend gave me a ring 'I'll enter the stadium in about 20 minutes. Whom do I stalk?', she asked frantically.
Usually before an IPL match and all the excitement - by default - embedded within it starts,  most sapiens who have gone to see it ask;
'Hey, you have the camera, no?'
 'Hey honey, do you need popcorn now? I'm not getting it in the middle of the match!'
'My eye makeup is alright, no? There are cameras placing people's thopras on the big screen the entire time.'
'Soo soo kiya?'
'Whom do I stalk?' isn't a cliched, conventional or expected question to be asked before an IPL match.

'Stalk the match, silly.' I promptly replied.


'It's going to be crazy. There are match players, celebrities in the V.I.P boxes, I really don't know whom to keep my eyes on. It is like that one incident at a party, a host offered me a tray full of chocolates, there was milk,there was silk, there was guilt, there was dark, there was one with a silver mark; amidst all the guilt I was still deciding which one to choose.' she narrated like a hungry buzzing bee waiting to sting to calm itself.


'So which one did you finally pick?' I asked her.


'All' she said.


'All? You're a greedy guest.' I chuckled.


'All, in my day dream. None, in reality. The host had moved on with her treasure to the other guest who was relishing the one with the silver mark.' she said with a tone of despair. 'I don't want to end up in a similar scene today. I'm going to keep my eyes on only one person. But I don't know whom. I love all.' she added melodramatically.


Before I could talk 'Oh crap, I'm a minute away from entering. I still haven't made up my mind.' She hung up; I thought so or probably the bad signal disconnected the line.


My hyperly-over-hyper friend needed an answer, or she wouldn't be able to enjoy today's match. She had slogged for the tickets. Not to forget 'sleeplessness', 'faking excuses at work', 'screaming' garnished with 'bribing'. I would never utilize all the mentioned '....' to obtain one single piece of paper.


I called her, she wouldn't answer. 15 seconds later her text graced my phone.


'In security check. Plz text me whom to stalk.'


'You have already finished stalking. Now treat yourself by enjoying yourself.' I replied.


'Finished? Treat?' came her prompt text.


'You already stalked your aim to obtain that ticket.' I wrote back.


'You're right. It's done. The fat lady just tore it too. I'm off to enjoy the match' came her calm text.

  3. this reminded me of an incident when i had gone to see an ipl game. there was srk in a stand, shilpa shetty in the other stand, the wonderful players in the middle. (all my fav!). in the first 20 minutes i was literally switching my eyes at full speed, i started feeling tired and realised i couldnt enjoy if i played this switching game. so i decided to only focus on the game ( obviously i automatocaly saw the players) and srk. this way there was lesser switching that my neck had to do. the next day i only watched the match again on tv (repeat) to only see shilpa :)

  13. You could also do cross mailings, lawn sign exchanges, newspaper co-ops, etc.
    The paperwork being requested is not difficult to compile and send in. The
    personal loans (http://broderickobpr.blog.com) that they
    offer do not have prepayment penalties and they also have fixed interest rates that you can afford to pay on monthly basis.

  20. I was curious if you ever thought of changing
    the structure of your site? Its very welkl written;
    I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content
    so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only
    having one or 2 pictures. Maybe you could space it out
    better?
