On Friday the 9th of September, the Rugby World Cup Kicked off. It was also the night to celebrate my aunty’s birthday. The opening ceremony was awesome. It got separated in to four parts. I reckon that it looked better on T.V, then live at Eden Park my teacher was stuck on a train.

To kick off the tournament, the MIGHTY ALL BLACKS took on TONGA. I had a feeling that the All Blacks were going to win. But I didn’t know the score was going to be 41 - 10 to the All Blacks. But i thought the Tonga team played pretty well.

The crowd was awesome when they were cheering for their teams. When the teams were doing the HAKA the crowd went CRAZY. People supported really well and some people even dressed up. Although the city struggled with the huge crowd, some people agreed that the opening ceremony was a huge success.
