last night at the ‘new’ eden park (nz vs france game)…
temporary structure below where i seat!
great atmosphere, felt so different than watching on tv…. where’s my commentary?
angry security telling the crowd to stop the mexican wave, why?!
after game, outside the stadium, i smell alcohol and tobacco…
RWC is here, never been a big fan of rugby and i don’t know what i’m exciting about, the crowd? game? or the bad traffic?! but i got myself a ticket and going to the opening party tonight!! Go ABs! >:)
