What to expect when visiting a Rugby match

Of course there is the biltong guy dressed in the colours of the club...


Then there are the 'braaiers', the people who arrive early so that they can braai between the cars on the field that is designated as parking area for the occasion. The people in this picture have a nice little corner for themselves, but that is unique. Normally is happens behind the car so that there is easy access to the meat and drinks in the boot of the car.

For the non-braaiers there is the wors sales person to fill the hungry (beer) bellies


Since it is not allowed to bring alcohol into the stadium, people have come up with resourceful ways to get there hands on brandy-coke, a drink that is as vital to the game as the ball itself.
Little plastic bags filled with booze are stuffed in places like the hood of a jacket. In the stadium it is mixed with coke. This method requires somewhat of a steady hand.


After the game there is again an opportunity to braai !!!
