The rubgy finals would have been held at Loftus Stadium, here in Pretoria; but because of the up coming World Cup Soccer, they weren't allowed to mess up the grass. So, it was shifted to Orlando Stadium in Soweto. Soweto is a 'township' type place where us white people generally just dont go. This was a perfect opportunity to get everyone to just join the vibe, ignore all the differences, and just get along and have a great time. It was an excellent kick off to the whole World Cup Soccer atmosphere!! Afrit hired a bus, and a heap of people went to the game. Fantastic!!
Lots of busses on the way to the stadium

All around the stadium is "Shebeens". This is when the town people open up their houses to sell alchohol and food, like braaied meat.
Like the World Cup Soccer, this was a 'once in a lifetime' experience!
