No Firearms, but Firewood's OK!

Watching Cricket in South Africa can be summed up as 'relaxed', and there's no better example of that than the Braai (BBQ) area, found in each venue. Fancy coming to the cricket and either using the facilities provided to whip up your own meaty lunch, or being allowed to bring your own BBQ if you wish. Brilliant. This is what following cricket is about; something sorely missing in Australia. Imagine the terror and panic attacks of Australian venue management and security if you fronted to the gates with a BBQ. Christ, you can't even take a bag into the GABBA so it's a great thing Queensland Cricket isn't running the game here!
