It's not the blind date they hoped for but two Wellington women have found a couple of men to watch the Super Rugby final with.
Hurricanes fans Suzie Carrig and Felicity Mortimer, both in their mid 30s, auctioned two tickets to tomorrow's match on Trade Me - joking over a few wines that it could be the "perfect blind date".
"As much as we would like a couple of really nice, professional, Hurricane-supporting single guys to enjoy the night with us, the most important thing is the winner of this auction is fun and doesn't mind us yelling, swearing and drinking, cause we will be sitting right next to you," the Trade Me listing said.
The auction closed last night and the winner, for $460, was a 52-year-old married man who will bring along his 20-year-old son.
His relationship status hasn't crossed Ms Carrig's find.
