I just realized in looking over my blog, that I mistakenly forgot to publish this.
The All Blacks, an international rugby union team of New Zealand, perform a haka immediately prior to international matches. A Haka is a traditional dance form of the Māori of New Zealand. It is a posture dance with shouted accompaniment, performed by a group according to Wikipedia. They also go on to state, that it is not only groups of men that perform it, groups of women, children, and a mixture of people have chanted a haka for many different events. It is an amazing site to watch. Although the Haka is sometimes considered to be intimidating, teams that don't give The All Blacks the respect of watching it and "standing up" to it, seem to be beaten by a healthy margin.
