I live in London, should I go to the match?
I just haven't got around to it yet.
(If you tell me that I should go, would it be weird to bring pom poms?)
it would be funny if you got tickets for the blitz tiebreak and either player wins one of the final 2 classical games thereby avoiding the blitz part!
Heather, it has been said by one far wiser than I that at the end of your life, you regret the things you didn't do more than the things you did. Though, it is to be hoped, I am not near the end of my life, I am old enough to realize how correct that statement is. One example is that I was staying at the Waldorf in New York (on business--I could never afford to pay for that place myself) while Karpov and Kasparov were playing their 1990 WC match there. I debated going to one of the games and decided not to do so. How I wish now that I had gone.
Bottom line (we Americans like to say that): if you would truly like to go, then go. If you are ambivalent, then go. If you don't really want to go, then don't go. I would only counsel you to ask yourself if you will one day regret missing the opportunity.
Cottonsock has inherited yet another thread! 😁
