Men and women, young and old, had their eyes glued to the tv sets and every now and then explosions of glee could be heard as the Pacman smothered his Mexican antagonist with one-two-three combinations.


The fight was a worldwide sports phenomenon. But here in the Philippines, it was not just a phenomenon - it was a national craze.
