Description

Two rugby fans are watching television in a pub. The announcer reports 'The government has seized control of the waterfront...' One of the men assumes he is talking about the Middle East but his companion says 'No - Auckland.' Context: Rugby World Cup Minister, Murray McCully, had been under strict orders to do "whatever it takes" to ensure the Rugby World Cup is an outstanding success. The Rugby World Cup Empowerment legislation was invoked so that the Government could take control and run the fan zone. (New Zealand Herald September 14 2011) This happened after problems following the unanticipated huge crowds on the opening evening of the Rugby World Cup.
