Watching the World Cup in Cebu
ITS just hours before the greatest sporting spectacle of the world opens – and no it’s not the NBA finals – but the 2006 Germany World Cup and the Pinoy football fans are again expected to troop to their favorite watering holes to catch up the live games.
Among the establishments who will air the games starting at midnight tonight are Marriot Hotel, Marco Polo and Table 7.
On the other hand, the Waterfront Hotel will release an advisory later this week regarding their World Cup activities.
According to Dolly Belo of Marriot, they will be showing the games at their Pool bar and the Palm Lounge starting tomorrow.
Meanwhile, the Cebu Football Association, led by Jonathan Maximo is currently planning a tie-up with Marriot for tomorrow’s opening.
“There’s one being organized by the Philippine Football Federation but it is in Manila, so we are also planning one here,” Maximo said.
For a minimum of 10 persons, a group can also ask for a function room inclusive of food, chips and nuts for every order of draft beer.
Not to be outdone, the newly opened Marco Polo Plaza Hotel is also offering a complimentary drink for every five orders at their Al Fresco restaurant, where the fans can relax and enjoy.
Table 7 at the Ayala Lagoon Area have also come up with a series of promo for the World Cup, which will last until next month, and will also air the games live.
And here’s the best news, all three establishments won’t be charging any entrance fee.

those information are great. I was watching the last games in Batchers, which is beside the Banilad town center. It reminds me on a pub, even though i've never been in any real one ;) however, I heard that ShangriLa hotel also screens the games but i'm not sure about entrance fee...
cheers from mactan
