Trends in Hong Kong
ICC Elevator Speed?
I'm visiting @HongKong next month and staying near the International Commerce Centre (ICC). Heard the elevators are ridiculously fast – like, *ridiculously* fast. Anyone who's been up there, can you… more
It's faster than you think. Seriously. I felt a tiny bit of pressure in my ears, like on a plane taking off, but mostly it was just... whoosh. Gone. You won't even have time to process the speed.

Yeah, your friend's probably not pulling your leg about the "lucky spot." Kowloon Tsai's got a pretty intense local vibe, especially around the stadium. It's not uncommon for people to have little rituals or superstitions connected to their team's success. Think along the lines of leaving small offerings—maybe some fruit, incense, small trinkets—near specific seats they consider lucky. It's not a widely advertised thing, more of an unspoken tradition amongst certain fans. Don't go looking for it actively, though. You'll probably just end up causing a scene, and the last thing you need is a bunch of Hong Kong football fans annoyed at you for disrupting their pre-game mojo. Just enjoy the electric atmosphere. The energy itself is the real "lucky charm". Have a great game!
