GPS Pre-Test Luncheon

I guess we've had too much fun and have not kept up with the blog posts. Don't worry! We will catch everybody up on our time in Brisbane.

As most of you know, the first match of the British and Irish Lions Series against the Wallabies was last Saturday. The GPS rugby club, hosted a luncheon as a fundraiser the day before the match (Friday) that was filled with entertainment. There was an auction, a comedian, and a panel of guest speakers that have played for the British and Irish Lions. There was one speaker from each representing country: Andy Nichols (Scotland), Lewis Moody (England), Rob Henderson (Ireland), and Shane Williams (Wales) .

It was amazing to hear the stories from these players. Each of them explained how they would prepare for for the Lions tour and shared some funny off the field stories. The Australian comediean (Vince Sorrenti) was very funny as well, unsurprisingly making some jokes about America. Afterwards, we had the chance to go out with the GPS rugby boys in Brisbane, which is obviously a great time as well.
