The Rugby Test |

Two New Zealanders had flown over for the deciding Bledisoe Cup Rugby Test to be fought at the Sydney Football Stadium. This was a once in a lifetime trip, and long in advance they had procured the scarce tickets in the Western grandstand adjoining the half way line. But tragedy struck two days before the test when one of them developed a sudden acute pain in the scrotum. The next day they presented to casualty where the intern examined the unfortunate man. "You have bilateral torsion of the testes. I'm afraid we're going to have to operate, and we'll have to take your testicles." "No bloody way, bugger that" said the Kiwi, who insisted on a New Zealander's opinion. The Surgical Registrar was from Bondi, which was close enough, and was called to see the man. "Look mate, you have torsion of the testes", he said. "We'll have to operate and we'll have to take your balls." "My balls!", said the Kiwi. "That's all right then. That other bastard wanted to take my test tickets!" |
