Four patrons to watch Champions League in Turkey

Four lucky patrons of the Piccadilly Casino at Osu last Saturday won all-expenses-paid trips to watch the UEFA Champions League match between Galatasaray and Arsenal on December 9, 2014, at the Türk Telekom Arena in Istanbul, Turkey.

Among the four, two of the patrons, Jerry Quainoo and Mark Ankrah, were selected in a draw at the Ladbrokes Sports Betting Centre, while Kafui Buatsi and Janet Yuso were chosen from the Slot and Tables centres at Osu.

The General Manager of Piccadily Casino, Tolga Tirpan, told the Daily Graphic that the package for the four lucky winners included tickets from Ghana to Turkey and back, match tickets, a three-day stay in a five-star hotel as well as $250 spending money.

Mr Tirpan said: “All that the four winners needed is a valid passport, the rest will be catered for by Piccadilly. We organise such give-aways to reward and delight our loyal customers for their support.

“This is the first Champions League draw here at Piccadilly and we chose Galatasaray versus Arsenal because of the strong links my outfit and Ghanaians have with both clubs”.

An excited-looking Kafui Buatsi, who is among the four lucky winners, explained that although he was a Chelsea fan he was looking forward to visiting the Galatasaray stadium, which is considered to have the loudest crowd in the Guiness World Book of Records.
