Simon from Backsberg has organised what looks to be a great Friday afternoon. I am not too sure what the afternoon has in store for us,  a more civilised event than some of the intervarsity days Im used I am sure, lots of great wine and decent wine chit chat to boot.  From my hazy recollection of varsity, this has sparked off so many memories of the more social aspect of UCT.

The last time I was at an inter-varsity was in 1999, we had an incredible day on a bus from Marquad Hall out to the Bosch.  With enough beer and super juice ( Gin and Blue Energade…it was a hot day)  and a bright blue UCT shaved into the back of my head we were all set for the big game.  From what  I can remember it was an awesome day of debauchery.

One area the Ikeys always managed to pull one over on the Maties was in the drinking department.  The intervarsity down downs at Fat Boys two nights before the big game swung well in our favour. ( pity the rugby that weekend was one way traffic in favour of the Maties).

I certainly will not  be attempting any of my shenanigans from back in the day, (and no Simon, I am not shaving my head)   I’m slightly out of practise…. but a blast from the UCT past, heres an old pic of one of our inter varsity running days,  the after run social.   Ten beers in ten minutes.  Eish…. 

I cannot wait for this afternoon, for more info check out Simons post on the big day:  UCT vs Maties

I watched Semi Pro last night and this could turn out to be the Mega Bowl!  Except there is no 4th place.   Come on Ikey Tigers!

And in honour of Will I think I will watch Old School tonight.   ‘Were Streaking‘  Classic.
