It was an awesome experience, with money well spent for short vacation from Singapore.
In addition, I met many fans from Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Europe, Japan and China.
This time, I stayed at Bukit Bintang where I can take the monorail and transfer to one of the LRT direct to Bukit Jalil, which cost about RM5 one way.
The player hotel is the Istana hotel which is located near the Pavilion Mall/Changkat Bukit Bintang area.
The spectator area is blacked out and it can be dangerous walking around in the dark to find a seat.
Some of the national team jerseys are sold in the stadium.
I must say Victor have very nicely design shirts. Of course, I bought a few.
I bought the cheaper exclusive Malaysia Open shirt.
Pretty nice souvenir, nice looking shirt.
The racquets sold at the stadium. It is a bit pricey that I didn't buy any.
The best part was I get to get my items autographed by the players.
Ticket prices are reasonable before the semi-finals. I paid cash at the ticket booth at the stadium.
Fan engagement at the stadium.
Funny thing is at the player hotels, at the lobby there were many fans camping outside to take selfie with the players and getting their autographs.
I managed to take a lot of pictures, but the low light makes it challenging to get a nice money shot.
All and all, an enjoyable experience for my 4th Malaysia Open. A memorable badminton holiday.
