There are common words on the wall of a narrow alley in West Java: “Persib Aing” or “Persib is mine”. On the other side, there are many people put on Persib jersey than Manchester United. There is West Java, and Persib is the forever shinning glorified soccer club.
In my opinion, Persib is almost like a religion. People are adoring. No matter it plays bad or good, there are always chant sounded.
The reason for this phenomenon is due to a belief that Persib is culture — not only about soccer. West Java People is loving Persb because his father loves too. His father also loves it because of his parents. Loving Persib is like a must.
