After 34 years the All Blacks rugby team finally made it back to the United States.
We flew in to watch them whip the Eagles 74-6. But it wasn’t about the match for me, it was about the hoopla that surrounded it.
Here are a few photos I took at the sell-out 62,500 strong game at Soldier Field, Chicago…

Welcome to Chicago!

No guns allowed…

Crazy fans!

Soldier Field stadium. Imagine a stadium this beautiful in New Zealand. It would be the most iconic building in all the land!

And the crowd goes wild!

The pre-match hoopla at Soldier Field, Chicago

It was 4 degrees in the shade! (Love the cheering American behind me 🙂

Getting ready for the haka

The kiwis are in town!

Go All Blacks! I yelled. The muppets didn’t agree.
