MEN CHOKE IN FRONT OF LARGE CROWD 80,000 spectators watched helplessly yesterday as 15 sportsmen choked in front of them, apparently after being force-fed a large slice of humble pie. A doctor attending the scene said that the men had a medical history of this sort of thing: apparently it also happened in 2000 in Edinburgh, Wembley in 1999 and Landsdowne in 2001. Mj BTW There is a theory that Rugby while its invention is credited to WW Ellis, is unlikely to simply have been invented. Rather it was a more gradual progression and evolution of the ancient Irish game of Cáid )popular in Kerry and Cork. So why wouldn't we have one. Rugby is after all an IRISH game ;-). Looking forward to seeing Ireland win next year in Croke Park
