The Teutuls from Orange County Choppers (OCC) and the TV series American Chopper showed up and presented a very special motorcycle to Crowe. Famous golfer Greg Norman and surfer Lane Beachley were also present. Despite the rainy weather, the stadium was packed. The fans got to experience an exciting game of world class rugby.
