Football viewing centers help to promote this unity and oneness and then is no doubt that this centers is a melting pot of different characters.............. .. Without much ado, let me present to you 12 kinds of persons/fans/characters you are likely to encounter in a football viewing center.
(2) THE CHAMELEON FANS: They support whichever team wins, they may come to the viewing center as a Chelsea fan and leave as a man city fan (hoes ain't loyal).
(3) THE SLEEPERS: They come to the center all vibrant and enthusiastic, 20minutes into the match they are snoring already, they only wake when they hear the shouts of goooooaaaaaalllll!! And go back to their slumber (odi egwu)!
(4) THE LOYALISTS/FANATICS/DIE HARD FANS :They exude passion and emotion, have unwavering support for their team, they never badmouth any player or manager in their team no matter the situation even if they are losing 10-0.....you will hear words like "we are still in the game", "it is not over until it is over" (Egbon... . E don over jare).
(5) THE ANALYSTS/STATISTICIANS: They can analyze a match better than supersport anchor Robert Marawa, they question every decision taken by the referees, linesman even managers. They back up their claims with flawless stats. They make remarks like..... .. . "that wasn't a deliberate handball in the box, the referee shouldn't have awarded a penalty" (I wonder how they know it wasn't deliberate), "last season, Kante won 57% of his tackles, has a passing accuracy of 84%, and made a total of 1234 passes(jesu !, I wonder how they keep track of this).
(6) THE CLUB BASHERS: They are the comedian of the center, any football viewing center without them is redundant, they will always give you a reason to laugh even if your club is on the losing side, and they can troll your club like madt.
(7)THE GAMBLERS: Nairabetters, 9jabetters, merrybetters, 360betters fall into this category, it is only this category that can rejoice when his team loses. They make statements like "Oboy, my bet Don cast" "I play this game x2.. . Oooo"
( THE FOOTBALL ENCYCLOPAEDIAS: They can tell you the names of almost all the leagues and clubs in the world, from the English Premier League down to the Azerbaijanese league, they can still tell u the year the clubs was formed, the biography of footballers and that of even their spouse (I dey fear this people).
(9)THE ECONOMISTS: They apply the concept of opportunity cost before going to watch matches. They say things like "the second half na where dem dey score goal pass, so I go watch only second half and save #20 instead of wasting #50.
(10) THE BALANCE SHEET REVIEWERS: They know the assets and liabilities of virtually all their favorite footballers, their salary structure, and weekly wages. They can give you the value in Naira, Dollar, and Pounds (I salute this category).
(11) THE MUTE SQUAD: They sit with their arms folded, eyes glued to the screen, no talking, they show no passion nor emotion. Sometimes I wonder if they are watching the game or the game is watching them.
(12) THE MOCKERS: They are different from the BASHERS in the sense that they are just there to laugh at anyone whose team is losing (e dey pain sha...). The sound and style of their laughter is what hurt most.
