Why are they concerned with spectator safety, no-one from Christchurch goes to the games because "it's toooooooo cold".

Bunch of sooks.

Fortunately the big baby says nothing about chainsaws.

Now just waiting for some glorious River Folk bogan to park up outside the ground and blast the digital cowbell through some obnoxiously large car sound system.

We’ve got ourselves a good old fashioned ding dong battle for the 2025 finale. Chiefs will take the title on Saturday.

Crusaders CEO Cowbell Banning Confession

--NZ Herald--

Cantab Death Star CEO Darth Mansbridge has today confessed to the real reason behind the sudden banning of cowbells, an accoutrement synonymous with Waikato Rugby, ahead of the Super Rugby Pacific Grand Final between the Crusaders and the Chiefs this Saturday.

“We have made the decision to ban cowbells at Apollo Projects Stadium for the Super Rugby Pacific Grand Final between the Crusaders and the Chiefs to ensure complete silence for our children of the corn in the stands as they concentrate on trying to catch the rugby football when it is kicked into touch. It is crucial for all us Cantabs that we can hear the dozens of Cantab cheers when the ball is successfully caught by a Crusaders fan. It is our only pleasure in life " Crusaders CEO Colin Mansbridge said in a statement.

Hundreds of phones with a portable speaker playing the cowbells could be just as annoying

Heaven forbid some noise was made at the museum.

I would have thought the glass tallies sold at NZ rugby grounds was more dangerous.
