Guinness Joins Kenya’s top Fans for an Epic Eldoret Matchday
Eldoret erupted in a weekend-long football fiesta as Guinness, the undisputed champion of epic matchday experiences, transformed Baniyas Square into a haven for over 5,000 passionate fans. This wasn’t just any viewing party; it was a celebration crafted by the fans themselves!
Recognizing that true football fanatics know best, Guinness assembled a dream team – the Guinness Matchday Committee. Led by the enigmatic Chairman G Money and fueled by the expertise of local Eldoret legend Arap Uria, this committee was a powerhouse of passion.
Imagine a dream team with Director of Drinks Analysis, Carol Radull, ensuring perfectly chilled Guinness for every toast. Chief Entertainment Officer, Lotan Salapei, curated a lineup that would keep the energy pumping. Nana Owiti, the Chief Snacks Officer, guaranteed a culinary symphony to accompany the beautiful game. And finally, Chief Vibes Officer Willis Raburu, the resident master of ceremonies, ensured every moment buzzed with excitement.
The result?
An experience that transcended mere viewing. Colossal screens, crystal-clear sound, and a constant flow of delicious food and Guinness were just the foundation. The true magic came from the fans themselves, their cheers echoing through the Eldoret sky.
But the festivities didn’t stop there. Guinness challenged the ultimate football aficionados with the “Clean Sheet Challenge.”
Hosted by the legendary media personality and die-hard Manchester United fan, Maina Kageni, with Mukami Wambora by his side, this trivia battle offered a once-in-a-lifetime prize – an all-expenses-paid trip to witness a live football match in England! The competition was fierce, but Felix Takona Karbolo and Christopher Omung’ala emerged victorious, their football knowledge securing them a dream come true.
Guinness Marketing Manager, Henrietta Reed, addressed the crowd, her voice booming with shared passion,
“We at Guinness are as obsessed with football as our fans! Our mission is to create unforgettable experiences, where your love for the game is the heart and soul of everything we do. This Eldoret Epic Matchday Experience is a shining example of that. We poured our hearts into this, alongside our incredible Matchday Committee, and we can’t wait to craft even more electrifying moments for you in the future.
Stay tuned, football fanatics!”
The weekend pulsed with the rhythm of the beautiful game. Fans roared with excitement during the Newcastle vs. West Ham clash on Saturday, the tension reaching a fever pitch on Sunday as Manchester City and Arsenal battled for the title.
In between the nail-biting action, DJ Tibbz and Lisney kept the energy high on Saturday, while DJ Protégé and the legendary DJ Pierra took over the decks on Sunday.
Bensoul and Bien’s electrifying performances added another layer of unforgettable energy to the already pulsating atmosphere.
The Eldoret Epic Matchday Experience wasn’t just about watching football; it was about celebrating the beautiful game with fellow fans, creating memories that would be cherished for years to come. It was a testament to the power of passion, collaboration, and of course, the magic of a perfectly chilled Guinness.
