Overjoyed 7-year-old wins Herald on Sunday tickets to Lions v ABs match.
One lucky young fan is about to go to his first All Blacks game after he won a ticket to see the British and Irish Lions play as part of the Herald on Sunday and Jockey's "everyday supporter" competition.
Now Tauranga 7-year-old Zac Simeon is about to see the All Blacks play for the first time after his father, Matt, entered the competition.
And with Zac's debut set for the first test of the Lions tour at Eden Park on June 24, it's sure to be a day the youngster will never forget.
Rugby-mad Zac - who had a cake featuring his favourite player Brodie Retallick made for his sixth birthday - is thrilled he will get to see the boys in black play for the first time, Matt said.
"I asked my wife first but she said she couldn't go because Zac would love it too much," he told the Herald on Sunday.
"Zac's pretty excited. There were some big yells and screams when he found out we'd won."
While it will be Zac's first All Blacks match, the winner of the Wellington tickets is a long-time fan.
Brent Druskovich said his "Pop" Tom had been taking him to Eden Park since 1974 - when he was a 5 years old.
After winning the Herald on Sunday competition for two tickets to the Lions' Wellington game, he will finally get to watch the rugby at Westpac Stadium for the first time.
After almost 50 years of loyal support from the stands, Druskovich will return the favour and take "Pop" to the match.
"Although I am not yet there I am almost up to my 50th season of going," Brent said.
"We have travelled to Hamilton, Whangarei and Albany before to support our teams - Auckland, the Blues and the All Blacks, but we have never been to Westpac Stadium together for rugby. Pop has been for the Sevens and I have supported the Wellington Phoenix there - because support should be for all New Zealand teams."
