Rugby fans put on show of their own UNION-TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER
February 10, 2008
DOWNTOWN SAN DIEGO – At the USA Sevens rugby tournament, which concluded its two-day run at Petco Park Sunday, 16 national teams compete in a head-thumping, rib-busting, blood-spilling sport. You can't expect everyone to conduct themselves with class.
Actually, you can on the field.
Off the field, you're likely to run into the Semiahoo Old Boys rugby club from Vancouver, British Columbia. "Our custom is to dress up in something that gives us a lot of appeal when we are out and about," said Andy Blackburn, the head SOB. "Once, we all dressed up as Elvis. This time, we're the purple pimps."
