What an unforgettable experience watching the Springboks triumph over the All Blacks on American soil.
An impressive 67,000 spectators packed the stadium in Baltimore, making it the biggest rugby match in United States history. Baltimore was transformed into a sea of green and gold as Springbok supporters travelled from across the country to witness rugby’s greatest rivalry.
For South Africans living in America, this was far more than a match. It was the largest gathering of South Africans in US history, a powerful celebration of our people, culture and shared love for the Springboks, thousands of miles from home.
For one unforgettable day, Baltimore felt like home. The songs, the flags, the unmistakable spirit, proof that wherever South Africans gather, green and gold unites us.
To everyone who travelled from across the United States and beyond to be part of this historic occasion, thank you for making it truly special.
Congratulations to our Springboks. You have made South Africans across America and around the world immensely proud.
History was made in Baltimore, and SACCUSA was proud to be part of it.
