A sevens-induced munter infestation hit Wellington over Waitangi weekend according to digerati reports:

Downtown, trying to avoid munters. Just overheard: he’s wasted as, bro – @hadyngreen

Trying to figure out a place I can flee to today to avoid the munt – @robyngallagher

will have to brave the railway station soon. Psyching myself up for Olympic-class munter-dodging – @badtom

There was even a diagram to try and make sense of it all. Here’s a re-enactment:

Don’t let This Kind Of Thing happen in Auckland, team. We’ve already sold Hamilton the dummy on the V8s, the leaden-footed Rugby World Cup preparations could yet bear fruit and, godwilling, we won’t have to worry about that pesky America’s cup for while, either. If YOU see any money spinning events featuring crowds of people with pockets stuffed with disposable income having a good time approaching Auckland, let us or your local city council fuss budget know *immediately*.
