      The crowd roaring in the stands excited about the fog mishap. Understandable how the goalie might misinterpret the sounds of a partying crowd.

    Why do we need to include a relatable caption when the original one is funny already?

    I’ve heard this story before, but never registered the date: December 25th, 1937. Having played in Boxing Day rugby matches, and considering holiday “sport” matches in general I’m going to make a couple reasonably informed guesses. 1) The goalie was drunk. Quite drunk. Everyone was drunk. 2) Everyone was still on the field … drinking, the goalie just didn’t realise they weren’t playing any more because he couldn’t see them.

    That news header and picture is actually more hilarious than the comment. 😂

    I can’t help but wonder how many extra minutes the photographer was taking to take the best picture before telling the poor guy. 😂

    Edit: Until I noticed the topic only after posting this. 😂
