A Bar Seven a Side rugby challenge competition. From LtoR:- Steve Bigbeerbelly, Steve Ward, Steve (I'm from St Helens) Smith, Dave Barton, Steve Backoheed, Pete Wozencroft, Nigel Bennet. Spectators watched on hoping for a try to be scored. When a try was scored both teams had to run to the touch line and drink a pint of fine beer. Games were divided into two halves of 8mins and no clean glasses were allowed. This game ended 27 - 24. How many pints of beer where consumed per player? Answers on a postcard to the sports editor please. |
