But the Maori haka – that stuff is REAL.

I played American Football and drank copious amounts of VB with some of the guys. They have an amazing culture and are real competitors. On average, they are also HUGE and fast. Awesome to see lax taking off in NZ… Australia has a legit team so it should only have been a matter of time. The Maori are one of the largest native populations to still exist after British colonization and I could see them picking up lacrosse as a new favorite sport without a doubt.
