WHADDAHELL! City officials gathered by the grills for the opening of the 2006 Bangus Festival are seemingly unconscious of the hell-like scene created when the coals in the grills were lit, lending an eerie glow to the city plaza revelers. Only the double horns, it seems, are missing to complete the Dante’s Inferno tableau. Next time, forbid cameras to record this scene, please – or there’d be hell to pay! (PStar Photo By Butch F.
