This trip to support The Bunnies was one of the best times I've had. The weather in Jax was quite cold and abit rainy on game day. The joy to discover that I could actually follow what was going on made me more excited then anything. Having seen many games on Australian tv, I have to say,' there ain't nothing like the real thing baby' I don't know how these guys do it, they are truely the real Energizer Bunnies.
The OCC guys were just wonderful and quite funny. Another amusing moment came when Kevin Durand walked in with Russell and our section all screamed out "TREE" and he turned, smiled and waved. During the moment of silence for Heath Ledger you could literally hear the rain hitting the grass, as 12,000 plus people observed it.
Kudos to Peter as he keep everything running like a well oiled machine as Russell fielded the press. The second half of the game was a nail biter! so wonderful and exciting.
The team are the nicest guys you'd want to met, ( not to mention some of the best looking men around ) And some can dance pretty darn good as a few hit the dance floor at Marvericks afterward. Marvericks was packed as fans of both teams enjoyed a few drinks.
The whole team came to Marvericks, as did Russell. While the music was abit loud, they were playing good music. There was an attempt to get them to play "Weather" but they wouldn't.
It was a great showing by the Bunnies, I know Russell and Peter were proud of their team, and rightfully so, it was very exciting and great fun and I hope they make this an annual event.
To sum it up, it was good friends, great game, tons of fun and Russells long hair in a ponytail, what more could one ask for?? |
