Bad Story About World Cup 2010

World Cup is a football tournament who awaited most people all over the world, not except in Indonesia. Millions of people in Indonesia loves this sport, they welcome the world cup with enthusiasm. One month prior to the World Cup held in South Africa, all layers of society from the teenagers, adults and even elderly people talking about the same topic every day. From the community in the city, coffee shop beside the road, up to expensive cafes who is visited moneyed people.

World Cup Opening ceremony took place. The maniac of football started in front tv till late night with enthusiast. Reduce the hours of rest, but comparable than the pleasure derived. But it is only for people who live in big cities. For those of us who live in areas far from the capital city of provinces must swallow the bitter pill called "disappointment" since kick off of world cup 2010 begin.

We live in areas far from big city. So, we have to use a special antenna if want watching tv private who broadcasted in our republic. Special antenna which pot-shaped is called parabola. Of course we must to buy with expensive, doubled from UHV antenna.

Tragically with this antenna we can not catch the broadcast the most we wait. Broadcast of football can be seen only for those who buy the products of certain receivers. We have to pay expensive if wanna it.

TV channel that broadcast football is deliberately blocking when the match took place. Reopening access when break time came to show some ad slots, the main sponsor. And we must be satisfied just by watching this TV commercial, because tv stations the only one which broadcast this event is back to block broadcasts when Kick off the second round begins.

World Cup which we wait could not watched at all. We're just part of society most of which have a mediocre life, let alone watch directly in southern Africa to watch directly through the TV just can not.

Perhaps the disappointment our felt much lighter than the South African society, which incidentally hosted the World Cup this year. One time I ever read in a sports media expressions of disappointment from the Society of South Africa that the World Cup is only dedicated rich people and not for poor people because ticket prices are very expensive for their financial capabilities. Maybe it is true that the World Cup spoil city people and rich people only.
