DO THEY DO THIS EVERY TIME THEY LOSE?



A country that gives us footballers who feel the need to whip off their shirts and do scary yet kind of cool tribal dances needs to be heralded. So, New Zealand, this is us herald-ing.

TIET TMI du Jour: To answer our own question, we're guessing they don't. We saw NZ's junior team play live once. They lost and they didn't do the haka then ... this must've been an impromptu thing? Or maybe it's an oly-whites/all-whites thing? And why are they doing it after the match? If we cared enough we'd look this up...

Wikipedia on the haka

The haka can actually be used in situations other than a war dance - in this case congratulations on a battle well fought. And honestly I'm just glad they did it - the haka is so freaking hot. Particularly with shirtless rugby players. Mmm, sexy polynesian men.
No. 2 is enjoying that way too much.
Eliza - I had no clue they did it afterwards. I knew the rugby boys did it though. Urgh, it's just testosterone-filled loveliness when the rugby lads do it.

It is just SO pretty...and I'm loving the tongue action as well.
