Why not barca lost to man utd eh..anyways, most united fans hardly fight in a viewing center atleast, to d best of my knowledge unlike d ogogoro club,very disruptive sets of fans especially in Naija ...

AntiBrutus:


Because you don't understand how young men are trying to make money without doing yahoo yahoo.

twentyk:
how much do you think I'd need to start one.... Just gimme a FIGURE.... Also what are the likely challenges you faced and other things a lay man wouldbt know about the job....

doctokwus:

Na so!
You people just sit down and quote figures out of your head,just like the fallacy that Nigeria is 180-200million people!!At the end when a honest population census is done,without counting goats,dogs and unborn children,we may end up being just 140-150 million
How many matches do u think will have a 100 paying people.
Some matches just 10 people will come out of which 5 maynot even pay.
Secondly the main match days are Saturdays and Champions league night where u may get just about 80-100.

What I have observed so far

It's a lucrative business(I haven't done the math though)

It is stressful (still dont understand the stressful part though, since im only working on specific times)

I have a BIG bet9ja shop not far from me, and have many beer parlors around(but there's still no visible "viewing center for many football lovers here, if there's one I'd be there everytime... I coudnt watch Nigerias match 2 days ago, the guy no open, and I just be like chai)....

bigpicture001:
...that biz is dead on arrival...bet9ja shops all around now show football matches on a free charge...it wil heavily affect your income!!!!

twentyk:
yes sir I fully understand what you saying..... I intend to start with 100 naira as that is the universally accepted amount for live matches anywhere in naija, but I'm starting the nation s cup free of charge to make an impression..... I have no idea of the dstv rates and other unseen expenses, also I know a bros who owns a viewing center and he is never smiling, always angry over one or two things, maybe it's not very lucrative etc.... I just want to know before I jump, what to expect etc.....

Tundexxy:


This is related to those in the Urban area...most betting shop not in city, don't show live match....only virtual

Just say you don't want viewing centres owner to succeed....

20 naira kwa?

adisabarber:


Give me one good reason why I should pay 100 Naira to watch a match in your viewing center when I can buy 100 Naira water and watch it in a bar. I think that is the problem viewing centers have now

twentyk:
i think I got a dope location, it's populated by students and lots of people around not to talk of unavailability of better viewing center.....

This idea originally came due to my frustration of not finding a place to watch live match..... Do you run one

enemyofprogress:
I have jazz that you can plant inside the place that will attract people to the viewing centre no matter the price you ask them to pay. Contact me if you're interested

i gave 100 bucks to the barman here for water so I could catch a match, he declined said unless I buy malt which is 150.....

To your question, I'd take a viewing center over a bar, there's a different feeling in a viewing center compare to a bar on ucl night..... That feeling alone I have greatly missed here, it's lacking and I intend to supply it...im sure there are a lot of people like me

AntiBrutus:

U be guy abi lady



Betting has taken away the fun from football.

Now after a match, rather than hear good analysis like we had in the past...what you will be hearing is "e remain small make I win, but that useless match cut my slip".

agarawu23:
actualy, I bought mine from someone using it before and need cash to travel.

I pay 18k monthly for 3 dstv decoders. Since I ain't there myself, I agreed on a monthly payment.

If you have your space already, u will need to construct, do chair, buy TV at least 2, buy Generator, standing fan, UPS. If you don't have already constructed place to start, budget 300k upwards depending on your taste and capability

Hello NL'ders, I want to have an idea of how lucrative it is to run a Viewing center for live matches.....

I want to use the upcoming Nations Cup as an opportunity to jump start the hustle, I have no idea on how it is to run one, and I'm here , asking business owners, or individuals with experience, ideas, and inside knowledge to give me a little OT in the business.....

P. S, i have a large space, two TV's and getting chairs are not a problem for me...intending to start small with the (nations cup FREE)...

twentyk:
i don't have an alresdy constructed place, but I have a piece of land to do the job, I have a big Gen, TV would be produced, fan also.... I intend to do "free text run on the Nation's cup, I'm new in the area and just want to text waters.... I have envisioned a large turnout expecially when Nigeria is playing and the location is quite a bomb,as it's directly in front of the junction, infact all roads leads to the front of my house... That's d last junction to wherever you coming from and where you get to board another....

My aim is to take advantage of the lack of VC in that area, my believe is if one could supply one there, then you'd be patronized.... But I haven't figured in the bet naija and bear palour peoples.... Infact 3 bear palour surround me
