Kiwi fans fly high with the All Blacks in London
100 Kiwis ride the London Eye wth the All Blacks thanks to Telecom and ScottonTour.co.nz
One hundred UK based Kiwi All Blacks fans circled the London Eye with members of the All Blacks’ touring squad in London on Thursday (UK Time). The fans won the opportunity to get up close with the team through Telecom’s fan website scottontour.co.nz
Scottontour host Scott McLaren who, along with cameraman Kerry, is currently on the Telecom Northern Tour alongside, and sometimes amongst, the All Blacks says the event was one of the highlights of his trip so far.
“Being able to get these die-hard All Blacks fans an up close and personal experience with the team has been magic. The All Blacks have got a huge fan base in the UK and this competition lets them show fellow supporters around the world how proud they are of their team.”
