All Blacks take in Chicago Bulls game

All Blacks taking it all in on their time in Chicago

The All Blacks have taken time out of their busy Chicago schedule to attend a Chicago Bulls game on Sunday afternoon (NZT).

In a video posted on Instagram by recalled lock Steven Luatua, a portion of the Haka is played on the big screen at the United Centre before cutting to a selection of the All Blacks players in the crowd.

The visibly relaxed but slightly embarrassed players are met by a warm if not polite applause by the stadium crowd in what is a welcome to Chicago by the stadium.

Their presence in the city is very much a low key one with Chicago enjoying a flawless start to the NBA season and their baseball team locked in a heated World Series for the first time in 70 years.

The All Blacks are in Chicago for the first of a four-leg northern hemisphere tour starting with Ireland at Soldier Field next Sunday (NZT). They will then move onto Rome, Dublin before finishing up against France in Paris.
