This year I had my first experience of rugby 7s. A bunch of us went to the London 7s, at Twickenham Stadium, and I absolutely loved it!
If you were wandering around South West London this weekend asking yourself: 'Why is everyone dressed as animals?' the answer was this year’s Rugby 7s theme - Safari. Primark most definitely profited greatly from its animal print ‘onesie’ products - I am quite sure that at least 70% of ticket holders had made a purchase!
On the way to the stadium, one lady couldn't believe what she was seeing. She looked very confused and we explained to her about the event and theme. She eventually clocked and it became clear why she had been following a tiger all the way from Cambridge!
The rugby games were short and fast paced, which makes for easy watching, and it's easy enough to wander around to meet other people you know there too.
The train ride back from Twickenham was packed with chanting fans and crowd surfing. Yes crowd surfing on a train, as well as many party-goers finding comfort in the luggage racks!
