Rugby

Did you see the game tonight? Lions v Chiefs? final score , 65 to 72. Ok so the good old boys lost sure but what a match, look at the stats thats 137 total points in a match lasting 80 mins, thats thats almost one point per 30 seconds. Now thas rugby. Although one must ask about the loins strategy let the other side rack uo points then work reakky hard to catch up, half time , second half same thing and that last tri was agonising they sat on that tri line for what 5 - 10 min. you know chewing the cud, smelling the roses.

Johburg, a word to the wise, take some time get out from your resturants, and clubs on a friday night, pack a pick nick, drink beer, eat billtong and worse rolls and get down to eles park opps sorry my bad coke a cola park, to watch the boys pulvarise each other for 2 hours, you shant regrat it. This was my first vist to the park I must say, and after living in the city ten years, i cany believe its taken me that long to get down there. Sure is in door fontein and the drive in is certainly creative but you siply must go.

There truely is nothing like an evening at the rugby, to cement the true south african experiance. Although one is a little concered about all those anti racism campagiegns, admitidy- there were scant few people of colour in the stadium tonight, for anyone to have been racist towards. Which i feel is a pity. I gues one feels alot of comraderie while yelling at a common enemy, even if its just a game. and our brother from other mothers sure do bring some colour to a rather calvanist sceen. I guess what im saying is, get out from your pubs, your clubs , coffee bars, your shabeens , you local jolls and come on down and check it out one might even be pleasantly surprized at what you can do for less cash that a movie!

All i can say is i'll be back.
