A NOISY crowd of 50 or so expats were at Champs Sports Bar on Saturday (November 24) for the England vs South African rugby game.The hosts, the Budapest Rugby Watching and Beer Drinking Association, are also attracting corporate sponsors.
"Two companies have approached us and asked if they can sponsor these events. We’ve been given Ft100,000 by Paddy Brosnan at Richardson and Partners and Mark Muss at Interdean.Interconex has put up another Ft100,000. So, we’re printing 100 T-shirts which we will be given away," said Keith Parker, one of the founders of the association.
"We would like to issue a challenge to all US expatriates to join us on Saturday, December 1 at Champs for an interesting game of rugby.... USA v South Africa," said BRWBDA Secretary Bruce Anderson.
"For Budapest-based Americans who do not understand the rules, there will be plenty of Brits at hand to help out," said Anderson. "Kick off is at 8pm and we guarantee it will be fun."
