Saturday night was almost the equivalent to our Superbowl. I went to Waxy O'Connors, the Irish Pub on the corner, to watch the Super 14 Championship rubgy match. The Super 14 consists of teams from South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand. It was between the Pretoria Blue Bulls (Blou Bulle in Afrikaans) and the New Zealand Chiefs.
The place was packed, we called ahead to get reservations so that we could sit outside and watch the game on the big screen. They previously had a nice flat screen tv that they carried in and out everyday so that no one would steal it. The big screen was nice and much easier to see than the tv.
The Bulls won 61-17, they killed the Chiefs! It was a blowout! Everyone was cheering for the Bulls, they beat the Sharks (Durban's team) two weeks earlier. The Bulls beat the Sharks in the finals last year.
I did order some wings to eat, but they weren't nearly as good as Coach's. They don't have ranch dressing to dip them in either...or blue cheese. I was able to enjoy a nice American brew...MGD--it's as close as you can get to a Bud Light.
