Pics: Inside the Chicago All Blacks game!

After 34 years the All Blacks rugby team finally made it back to the United States.

We flew in to watch them whip the Eagles 74-6. But it wasn’t about the match for me, it was about the hoopla that surrounded it.

Here are a few photos I took at the sell-out 62,500 strong game at Soldier Field, Chicago…
