Mysuru: As Royal Challengers Bengaluru, popularly known by its moniker ‘RCB’ won the 18th edition of Indian Premier League (IPL) beating Punjab Kings (PBKS) the fan frenzy exploded with full force in the city yesterday night.
Unlike other nights, when the city goes to sleep ahead of midnight, most of the city was awake, with people, irrespective of young and old, men and women, especially youngsters, glued to the TV screens, with the chants of ‘RCB..RCB...RCB...’ reverberating the serene environs, with a foot tapping music played in the background. Huge LED screens had been erected at public places like Bhootal Grounds in Vidyaranyapuram, D. Devaraja Urs road, Ramanuja Road 14th cross, Bogadi Road and several other places, with diehard fans of cricket, needless to say that of RCB, gathering to watch the nail-biting clash on a big screen, with a bated breath. The chairs had been arranged on one side of the road, so that the normal traffic remains undisturbed amid cricket fever, that had gripped the whole of the city.
