Entry to the rugby is normally €10, for the Braai Army troops, it is 1/2 price €5 and you will also get a FREE beer. If you wish to pay the full price, please do, you will also get a FREE beer. It is a cash bar, so please make sure to have some cash in hand. Peroni Beer is sponsoring the event, €5/pint and all the proceeds go toward the young players fund. Yesterday we met with the Director of Rugby who informed us that there might be a TV crew, this could then be shown on the BIG TV before or during the match tomorrow. So let us all come in the Green and Gold and show that we not only enjoy having a good time, but we are also here to help local rugby.
Please keep in mind that we are ambassadors for South Africa, the Springboks and the Braai Army, smile, be friendly and have a good time. If someone causes kak with you or your don't like what is going on, just walk away.
