there's something about ..... stadium

What a beautiful shot of Singapore National Stadium or should I say:
The-Stadium-that-never-get-demolished
or perhaps
The-Stadium-that-always-reopened-after-saying-that-the-last-game-was-indeed-the-last-game.

First... they have commerative events to mark the end of National Stadium.

Then.. they have Australian national team coming to play as a Swansong game in National Stadium.

Then... they have World Cup qualification games played at National Stadium, the last game being really the last game.

Then... they have Brazilian coming to play as warm-up game for Beijing Olympics, saying the game will really be the last game.

This reminds me of Retailers in some ulu ulu place that always hang up banners saying "Closing Down Sales". But they never close down.

I guess this is Singapore Mentality.
