When I received an invitation from SAA to the final of the World Cup Rugby at Ellis Park, I was really not sure if it was worth travelling 16 hours to see a I 1/2 hour match that I could probably see much better in my own living room!!! Luckily my gut feeling got the better of me, I suppose, and Tm now in the plane on my way home after participating in a "Great Historical" sports event. Only by being there could one really feel the fantastic atmosphere and experience what the New South Africa really means." The excitement could be felt throughout the city with thousands of fans making their way to the ground all dressed up in crazy hats carrying flags of all sizes (only the New South African flag of course!). There were stands on street corners "painting" the new flag on people's faces, and, of course, folks gathered around their traditional "Braaivleis" drinking and smiling. Inside the ground the 70,000 crowd were wildly excited as they greeted the two teams who took to the field. To hear 70,000 people shouting "Nelson, Nelson" as that great man entered what was formerly the bastion and stronghold of white South African supremacy, is a moment never to be forgotten.
