We didn't experience such aside from the fact that we had to walk from the hall to the galleon under the heat of the sun. Well I presume that was the first time NCCA hosted the event but yes, that is not an exemption for not having a reliable crowd control system.MariaKristelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15311449675626388273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4697438448928583434.post-6825169668434379722010-10-10T02:49:18.258+08:002010-10-10T02:49:18.258+08:00i went on the last day of viewing, and i bet i was...i went on the last day of viewing, and i bet i wasn't the only one who can attest to the ineptitude and stupidity of the organizers. for one, i had to stand in line for 8 hours -- yes, 8 freaking hours! -- just to see galeon andalucia. during that time, i've been subjected to stampedes and rowdy crowds, thanks in large part to a non-existent crowd control system. second, all of us regular visitors had to be under the scorching noontime sun followed by heavy rains, and once it was over, dun pa lang nilabas ng staff ng port area ang silong. third, there is virtually zero system to keep everything in check. and then when it came to view the ship -- 8 freaking hours later without food or water and all sweaty -- we were gladly informed na di na pwedeng umakyat ng ship, and that we had to be content taking pictures na lang for 5 minutes sa concrete ground sa pier 13. super effin stupid ang event na ito. i wasted a whole day, from 7 am to 5 pm, for nothing. seriously, whoever is in charge of this event should be jailed, and NCCA should never be entrusted with event-organizing because obviously it lacks decent brainpower to execute such a simple task. heck, even the queues at Pulp Summer Slam are way better than the hell i've been subjected to just to view this galeon.Keni Keta Mediahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11884149081096548971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4697438448928583434.post-1939172545118624252010-10-08T11:31:06.586+08:002010-10-08T11:31:06.586+08:00Hello!
