OYO, a hotel chain is batting for hockey. It published an ad in today's (16 April) Hindustan Times where it offered a flat 45 per cent off for a "safe and sanitised room" if you apply the coupon code "HOCKEY" on its app.
"While India ODs on cricket, other sports will stay buried..." read the caption on OYO's Twitter post and it went on to say, "Use coupon code HOCKEY for 45% off. Hockey because Team India beat Argentina twice in Argentina. Hopefully, we remember Hockey a bit more now."
