Safaricom 7s

Kenyans love their rugby and Safaricom 7s provides an adrenaline-rushing experience for rugby lovers. It is a 3 day festival with games flowing back to back from Friday to the finals on Sunday. I haven’t missed the finals for the past 3 days. The ticket goes for KES1500 and covers for three days. It is usually held in the RFUEA Grounds along Ngong Road about 8km from the city center. On all the days, the crowd is packed but especially on Sunday. The tournament is usually on an elimination basis. The best of the best battle it out for a chance at the finals and the cash prize. I enjoy the energy that is usually on the stands. Fans with their team jerseys celebrating at the top of their lungs. Lots of beer and music. There is nothing quite like it.
