Wednesday 2nd of October, our friend drags us to the Varsity Rugby games. She just joined the rugby society in Man Met and it's the opportunity to have an overview of her future team. Such a good idea ! The Varsity Rugby games are the opening game of the season if I'm not wrong. We paint our face blue and yellow, the colours of our uni, we hear chants and try to understand what they say... which doesn't turn out to be very classy, but who cares ! It's part of the fun, and this is why we came here.
We are also made aware of the fierce competition between the two unis. One one side, we have Man Uni (black and purple). They're not the same as us, for sure. They have the good seats but as a consequence, they can barely stand, they can't smoke, etc. Their cheerleaders cheerlead and so on. On the other side, there's Man Met, people drink, smoke, eat, chant and even throw beer on the field (ok, I admit it, that's not so fun), and the cheerleaders drink, smoke and eat just as anybody else on that side of the field. People from both unis were running half naked or naked and there's nobody to stop them. We had a real good time.
Mercredi 2 octobre, jeux d'ouverture de la saison de rugby. Une amie s'est inscrite au club de rugby à la fac et elle veut voir à quoi ressemble sa future équipe. Quelle bonne idée ! On se peint le visage en bleu et jaune, les couleurs de la Man Met, les gens chantent, on essaye de comprendre les paroles qui s'avèrent ne pas être très classe, mais peut importe on est là pour s'amuser. On découvre qu'il y a une compétition redoutable entre les deux universités. Personne ne se parle au bar. Et on constate que la Man Uni (en noir et violet)est bien différente de Man Met. Ils ont les jolis gradins, etc. Nous, on chante, on fume, on boit. Certain jettent leur bière sur les adversaires (pas très fairplay). Mais au final, on a passé une super journée !
because I somehow find them interesting.
