Kolkata have sports culture which no other city in INdia have; They were already aware of Sports club culture and other cities are yet to develop that... so this was no big deal.. they even celebrated Mohan Bagaan win like this although to lesser events..
they are not world champions but only club champions..no need to honor them publicly..this is not world cup of football or hockey or any olympic or grand slam... just timepass...

You cannot understand the sports culture in Kolkata; They have a century old sports club and they even celebrated for Mohan bagan wins...

As if you are saying kolkata is outside India and nobody is aware of what those people likes...Dude I agree if these victory rally for any event which brings proud to the country or forget even state...But it's like domestic cup so its not a big deal buddy....
Mamta distributing gold chains and lockets to the members of KKR. This was never done for the football clubs who have many a times won the national title. This is obnoxious and laughable.
hey we chennai super kings won 2 times IPL and runner up 2 times and even campions leage 1 time ,but we not celebrated like this crazy kolkatta and even their CM

People whose favourite & staple dish is curd rice, will not understand this passion. There is also an underline of frustration, being looked down as a non-performing state.
A lot of Indians will think why so much hyped celebration for a private club; to understand this you have to understand the sports culture in West Bengal; Kolkata is the only city or perhaps one of the two city in INdia if we include Goa(Panjim) where there is already a Sports Club culture; People here just love to talk and involve into sports.They have been celebrating though with smaller events for the football club; remind me of Mohan Bagan when they won ASEAN cup;
So this is not something installed into the people of Kolkata to celebrate KKR win this time; it was already there and all they needed was such a moment. I have been to Kolkata in 2009 on the day when football star Maradona was going to come; I landed at night 11 and Maradona's flight was at 2 am night; however on my 10 km way to home I saw atleast 20 places where people had gathered and they have old village type projector and white cloths on which they were screening childhood documentory and matches of Maradona. I asked my uncle that who organized this is it centrally done and he said no its all the local gully and nukkad people....
Eden Garden was truly a great experience for Cricket; however it has been boiled down recently after Sharad Pawar and N.Srinivasan took over BCCI; they promoted Mumbai and Chennai and somehow the ever exciting Eden got lost...

Vijay, What's wrong with you? Do you think it is your birth right to abuse and insult, that too without any provocation?

You are calling him beggar but you know the real fact. You Bongs are b-e-g-g-a-r-s, who can be seen roaming in Chennai, Hyderabad, Bangalore looking for jobs. Shame on you people.

I guess u have not seen the matches.. atleast 4 matches have full house of 67000 not like Chennai where even the match before the final didnt have full house even when CSK was playing..

i saw most of the matches if you've been following my comments. plus, i also commented in one of my posts on the live board of how the stadium was full . but the point is, most of them supported pune because of ganguly, btw noone's questioning 'eden', we're questioning suddenly feverish support for kkr
