How come it looked like 80% of the stadium was Indo Guyanese? What happened to the rest of the population?
On social media it is quite different with the whole of Guyana celebrating.

Why don't you recruit Mulla bin Emir and the two of you can launch a full investigation into the matter?

In reply to deanjones Something I observed...
2023-09-25 18:52:50
About 45% of the Guyanese in the ground came from foreign. People went to the US and Canada, worked like dogs, achieved and saved their money. If they want to return and spend their money to have fun, why is their racial mix a problem? You spend your money how you like. You worked for it. End of story.
Some people here need to get a life. Most of the NFL and NBA major stars are black. What is the dominant skin colour in the stands?

My close brethren and I were discussing this today. For the record, he is Indo-Guyanese - and is still in shock.

But both the NFL and this display speak volumes about pricing locals out of games.
Allyuh cut di crap. There are dangerous signs for all to see. Ignore dem at our collective peril.
2023-09-25 19:13:47
I thot that the man was bringing up Hety belly again!!!! .
I observed the same in the Trini crowds but when I attended in St Kitts I realised that the camera men were focussing on certain parts of the crowd. Go figure!! Doesnt bother me. The bigger the turn out, the bigger the party and hopefully the bigger the support for other forms of cricket in the future!

Is he in shock that Guyana won? Or is he in shock that he's Indian and you're his friend? Or that most of the fans in stadium are Indian?

If the stands were full of black faces there would be people on this forum who would not raise an eyebrow.
2023-09-25 20:25:47
In Guyana, it seems as if everythign is about race.
You win and it about race
You lose and it is about race
I suppose the Brits did a great job before deh eft.

You said it.
How do you look for something like that without it being possible that doing that is racist?

and were they mark up.

In reply to Chrissy
I get priced out of most pro sports in the US. I sure plenty people who can't afford it go to those games. I can afford it, but paying that price is just too much. I don't understand it when you say "it will be to our collective peril"
Lots more bigger fish to fry that who attends sporting events...it's disposable income
2023-09-25 20:45:35
I am a big Knicks fan, but I have only attended one Knick game in the last 3 years, and the tickets were a gift...some yall need to stop making this about race
Lots of those overseas folks at the games also saw this as an opportunity to return home...vacation time
2023-09-25 21:07:02
GT peeps gouge the visitors, especially returning nationals. Why alyuh charging US$$? For example,Corona 6 US in ground and no banks beer inside either.
2023-09-25 21:25:06
How come most of the people at the dancehall and reggae concerts in Guyana are Blacks and the shows are more expensive than cricket. What happened one segment get priced out of the market?
That's right y'all like to see problems where there is none.
Caribbean people need to beware, the Mulatto and Creole Class still exist are are dangerous.

and were they mark up.
$20 USD if you bought on-line (from the event organizers).
$100-$500 USD if you bought from scalpers.
2023-09-25 22:00:46
yeah, fall into the trap of division by race. Nobody wins, so in the meantime feel free to exercise your right to free speech but please use responsibly for the good of all.

Well Guyana is 39% East Indian and 31% Afro Guyanese so that may be why. The demographics are a bit different to TT where the numbers of those two races are virtually equal

These clowns don't know I am Indo Guyanese also. They only see the jump and wine up session but don't see what is simmering below it.
