Vuvuzela

Wunderman Sydney's social committee hosted another games night on Thursday, this time with an in-house Foosball comp in honour of the World Cup Fever that has gripped the agency recently. While vuvuzelas were banned from the event, the Wunderkids came for the early start (which means an early knock-off from work), the drinks, the cheese plate and pizza. And the game, of course.

Eight teams picked a country to represent, and after the bookie's favourite, Spain (Paolo and Will), was knocked out of the comp in the first round, the spectators were hoping for a trans-Tasman clash between Australia (Rabbit and Nat E) and New Zealand (Amanda and Paul). But Australia fell to England (Soph and James) leading to a best-of-three grand final battle between the old empire and the young colony – England vs. New Zealand. In just two rounds the kiwis scored 10-8 and 10-9, besting the lions and claiming the trophy.

(There is a video of the night, but this freakin' blog won't upload it).
