Make sure you post the details of where at the Basin we will meet, for those of us who don't know what you look like.
We may even post photos.
You realise he talks a lot at the cricket? Just so you know.
What am I supposed to do?
Breathe occasionally
As long as nobody tells me to "just appreciate the game"

From Stu at Yeastie Boys, re His Majesty:
Malthouse and Hashigo Zake have one case left each - only other bottle i know of in Wgtn is one I gave to @annikakes for helping on the weekend.
So that's who you need to sweet-talk.

The idea that New Zealand was a dysfunctional, monochrome Polish shipyard populated by grim Jack Mulgans prior to the Rogernomics revolution is one of the most annoyingly pernicious myths there is.
I calls it as I sees it, not as it was. I was at the B&I Lions vs Bay of Plenty match where a rowdy Brit was stared down by a large number of grumpy Kiwis who wanted to the watch the game without any of his "blimmin carry on".

Oh and because it was Wellington I knew people in the seats around me and saw my neighbour on the way out. Man I love this town!

I was taken as a small boy to the mammoth 13-11 encounter at McLean Park between Hawkes Bay and the 1977 Lions and my overwhelming memory of that day now is of noise, of a unique and peculiar roar of the New Zealand provincial rugby crowd.
Don't get me wrong, a rugby crowd will yell, and boo, and shout, and swear. But they don't really do flags or chants. The noises tend to be solely reactionary rather than fill in singing during a build up.

given the ball and a minute to spare alone in front of our goalie. What a klutz.
I missed who it was but the Jets almost scored a fantastic own goal too, if it wasn't for a great save by their goalie

I imagine that David's biding his time. He seems like a thinker when it comes these kind of projects.

I just can't wait to share the grand marquee with a pack of beer-swilling pissed-up yobs
Large public gathering places showing sport for free on big screens tend not to be the place to find the "pissed-up yobs". For that you'll want to watch the game at the very cheapest sports bars and backpacker pubs.
Unless of course that was a generalisation of rugby/sports fans, in which case, get fucked.

True story: I couldn't remember his name, so I googled 'cricket aussie boofhead', and he was the top two hits.
I had to check and that is remarkable.
Good to see the <insert current Aussie enfant terrible> is a wanker chant hasn’t evolved with age.
Also nice to hear the commentators pause as they try to figure out the chant and then realise they should probably try to talk over it.
If this involves lying around on the grass, drinking beers, then I fully support this lifestyle choice.
As Emma says, those are all currently tabled items on the agenda.
