In a surprising twist to the usual stadium experience, a TikTok video has gone viral, showing a woman engrossed in her smartphone, watching online shows at a football match.
The video, posted by @ni4lll, has rapidly gained traction with over 166,000 views. It was captured during the recent JDT vs Terengganu football match on December 8th, 2023, at Bukit Jalil Stadium.
Choosing streaming over live football
The 16-second clip showcases the typical matchday environment, with fans eagerly watching the game.
However, the focus then shifts to a woman who, rather than following the match, is seen enjoying a meal while watching an online show on her smartphone.
The video’s caption ponders the purpose of her attendance at the stadium, suggesting she might have been there under some obligation.
“I’m tired of thinking what is the purpose of her coming here to the stadium. Maybe she was forced to go.”
Netizens reaction
Netizens have been quick to react, filling the comment section with a mix of amusement and relatable anecdotes.
One user humorously identified with the woman, saying, “Just like me. I go to the stadium and don’t even watch the match. I just want the environment. Want to take pictures and videos to post on social media.”
Another comment offered a different perspective: “What’s weird about it? Maybe she just wanted to accompany her husband and boyfriend. Not everyone is interested in football matches.”
Additionally, one user remarked on the practical side, noting, “The line there is so fast.”
While some may see this as a missed opportunity to engage with the live experience, others view it as a personal choice and a reflection of diverse interests and reasons for attending public events.
