BAGUIO CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Baguio City Bureau) – You would think that the mere sight of showbiz personality Vice Ganda would be an automatic pass for him to be allowed entry to the exclusive, member-only Baguio Country Club.
But no. Rules are rules.
The “It’s Showtime” host recently shared the incident where the Country Club security refused to let him in even after he pleaded that his main purpose was only to buy some bread, presumably the ever-popular BCC raisin bread.
It seems like nobody ever told Vice Ganda that he could get the bread from the BCC stall at SM Baguio Mall. Same bread. Same price. But no pretentious elite privilege!
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Two of the world’s leading athletic shoe manufacturers are clashing over endorsements by Gilas Philippines, the basketball team in the 2023 FIBA World Cup.
On one hand, Gilas Philippines Coach Chot Reyes has proudly displayed the Nike logo on the shirts he wears in the FIBA games.
But a recent announcement by PUMA that Gilas star player Kai Sotto is its new celebrity endorser has upset Nike.
Nike has threatened to pull all of its endorsements and financial support for Gilas unless the PUMA contract with Sotto is withdrawn and cancelled.
Moral of the story: You can only row your boat in one river or ocean. (“Namamangka sa dalawang dagat”).
