The Haka is also completely overused by incredibly drunk kiwi tourists in Europe. Nothing sucks like a middle aged pasty white man jumping up on a table in a London bar after a few, taking his shirt off and performing the most pathetic example of a Haka known to man.

The mere notion of envisaging it is sickening :yuck:

For those interested, the words, translation (approx) and the story (as some believe it to be) behind the Ka Mate haka are here.... (www.rugbysongs.net)
