Reminder
A non-official Pub Meetup is happening on Friday at Rudi's in San Francisco, to cheer on the All Whites in what might be their last match in this World Cup,
They're not out yet though, they still have a 3% chance to advance, and sports is known for unexpected results!

Rudi's has a great range of adult beverages, and also a great menu, but we've been asked to see how many of our attendees will be ordering the phenomenal fish and chips, so that they order enough to not run out, which is what happened the last time we turned up en masse.

Happy Monday Kiwis and mates...

Last night's All Whites result wasn't the best, so we're going to have an impromptu Pub Meetup again this Friday at Rudi's, to give them our support in the last game of the Round Robin section of the FIFA World Cup.

The actual game doesn't kick off until 8PM this time, but we'll be at Rudi's from about 7-ish for Happy Hour.

Rudi's is at 3108 16th Street (cross St is Valencia), in San Francisco's Mission district. The bar has a large range of alchoholic and non-alcoholic bevarages, and a full menu, including one of the best Fish and Chips in town....

Speaking of which, we ate the fish dry about half-way through the evening, SO...
If you even think you might order the "Fush and Chups" on Friday, can you please make a comment below, and we'll pass on the info, as Rudi doesn't want to run out this time...

See Ya Friday, Come On You All Whites!

We had a great time at our pub meetup at Rudi's in San Francisco last night, with some new faces as well (which is great to see)
It was a great game, and the Kiwis nearly got a win, but a draw is better than a loss.
We even saw our good friend Nico supporting the team, at the match, on the live broadcast!
Photos in our photo section shortly.

The FIFA World Cup 2026 started the initial Round Robin period today, in Mexico, Canada, and mainly the USA, with Mexico handling the South Africans easily enough in a 2-0 result, in Mexico too!
