ENGLISH RUGBY CLUB SETS RECORD FOR LONGEST GAME

A fitting tribute to a pal who died.  This is how a rugby club does it!

Dateline Hoylake, England – Former members of a Rugby club reunited to play a world record breaking game which lasted 33 hours!  Members of this team ranged in age from 39 to 59 years old.  Imagine 33 hours 33 minutes, and 33 seconds of moving the ball back and forth in earnest friendly competition.

The record-setter was played in honour of the memory of a former team mate, Dan Miller, who succumbed to a heart attack in June of 2020.  He was only 43 years old.

Friendship is forever.  I’m Max, and that’s the way I see it!
