Description

Shows a rat with the face of Borat who is wearing a mankini and who pronounces that Sevens is a game played with odd-shaped balls. The text says that Wellington Sevens introduces 'rude code' and refers to the fact that the 'mankini' costume was banned as too 'rude'. Borat was a film created by Sacha Baron Cohen and the character 'Borat' was played by him. In the film he wears a kind of male bikini dubbed a 'mankini' which is very revealing and was therefore banned as a costume option at the Wellington Sevens where the fans dress up.
