Red faces all round as cylinder contains body parts, not turf
SRNZPA: There were red faces at the All Blacks' farewell at Auckland Airport last night. The team was presented a cylinder supposedly filled with turf cuttings from all 1071 of their predecessors home grounds. But when the container was opened, it was discovered to actually contain cuttings of the 1071 All Blacks themselves.
"Ohhhhhhhhh, that makes a bit more sense" said Adidas Cylinder Ambassador Peter Harvey-Withers. "That fax DID get a bit smudged, but I never double checked. I got some funny looks going into all those cemeteries with a shovel and saw, let me tell you. What a turn-up, eh?".
