Chennai: The whistle has always had a special association with Chennai, not just the Super Kings.
While the fans' whistles have kept five time winners and reigning champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) going, another whistle has kept the city running for decades - that of the bus conductor’s.
Through a special partnership with the Metropolitan Transport Corporation (Chennai) (MTC), the Chennai Super Kings will be providing 8000 quality metal whistles to bus conductors around the city, replacing the existing plastic whistles.
It's also a small step towards reduction in plastic usage as the metal whistles last long.
"Plenty of fans have already benefitted from our special partnership with MTC this season, wherein fans with match tickets can travel free on buses on match days. We're glad to put smiles on the faces of public and the bus conductors", he said, according to a CSK release here on Monday.
Chennai Super Kings have a special partnership with MTC this season to enhance fan convenience and experience during the home matches at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chepauk.
Fans with tickets for Chennai Super Kings’ home matches can travel in MTC buses (non A/C) at no additional cost from three hours prior to the start of the match, with the match tickets doubling up as the travel tickets.
