[WELL DONE TO JEN, STEVE, MINKI, SV AND STU]

It’s the 2012 Cape Town Tens tournament this weekend, and by all accounts it will be even more exciting than previous years. Especially since they’re packing it into two days, rather than three. That means we won’t have to witness broken (physically, emotionally) men hobbling along on the Sunday, barely able to determine in what direction they’re going!

They’re even giving away a Golf GTi. Check this out (competition below):

The popular Castle Cape Town Tens rugby event, brainchild of Bob Skinstad and Rob Fleck, is just around the corner! It takes place on Friday and Saturday, 3 and 4 February, and will be hosted at the Hamilton Rugby Club for the fourth consecutive year. This year’s Tens promises to be a highlight of the year with an exciting music line-up, appearances from local and international rugby legends, competitions and giveaways, and a new addition, an exciting rugby expo.

2012 boasts an incredible line-up of live entertainment including the popular group Goodluck, The Graeme Watkins Project, The Lightyears and Me and Mr Brown. With three rugby fields, beer and food tents, kiddies play areas, as well as a host of rugby legends and SA personalities, there is plenty to experience both on and off the rugby field for the whole family. Enjoy a drink with mates in the beer tent while watching the rugby action and the kids will be entertained at the same time in the play area.

Promising to be bigger and better than before, this year the number of teams has been increased from 56 to 72, with four divisions – a heavy and light Beer League, The Vets League and the more competitive Premier League. Rugby legends this year include international stars Leon Lloyd, Malcolm O’Kelly, Justin Marshall and David Rees, and local stars Jake Boer, Breyton Paulse, John Allen and Pieter Muller.

An amazing prize on offer this year is a brand-new Golf GTI to the value of R365 000, sponsored by Stor-Age. Contestants will test their rugby skills kicking for the post to determine the lucky winner.

This year’s Castle Cape Town Tens is proudly brought to you by Castle, Canterbury, Powerade and the City of Cape Town.

Tickets are on sale at R70 per person via Computicket HERE. Kids under 12 are free.

WINNER IS NOLUTHANDO – well done!

I’ve just drawn a diagram to explain something to you. You will see there is a circle with the words “Inner Circle” written inside it. That is a lot like a circle of trust. It’s where you want to be. But unfortunately, at the moment, you’re not. As you will see by the arrow showing where you are. You’re outside the Inner Circle. Not ideal. A lot of awesome people and things are inside the Inner Circle, including South Africa’s leading digital radio station, 2oceansvibe Radio.

Let me explain what this is about:

SA’s leading sunglasses retailer and curators of all things glamorous and cool, will be hosting the Inner Circle Luxury tent at the Kenilworth Racecourse infield on 28 January 2012.

The Sunglass Hut Inner Circle ticket will sell for R1500 – this not only gives you entertainment for the day, but also a R2000 Sunglass Hut gift card redeemable on the day to complement race day outfits. Think Ray-Ban, Dolce & Gabanna, Stella McCartney, Versace, it’s the perfect accompaniment to even the most flamboyant ensemble.

The J&B Met is one of the premier events and if you want to see and be seen, join Sunglass Hut for what promises to be the party of the year. Your exclusive ticket worth R1500 qualifies you for an unrivalled stylish event which includes:
Inner Circle ticket includes (R1500.00):

• J&B Met entry ticket
• VIP parking (1 space per couple)
• Bedouin style marquee
• Chic lounge environment
• VIP toilets, live feed of races & tote facilities
• Complimentary non-premium bar between 11h00 & 19h00
• (Premium brands will be available for sale)
• Buffet catering – lunch and light dinner
• Entertainment
• Live broadcast by 2Oceansvibe radio

PLUS: Sunglass Hut Gift Card to the value of R2000, redeemable on race day.

The Sunglass Hut Inner Circle event is set to become the J&B Met’s most sought after ticket. If you want to celebrate horseracing in premium style, purchase one of 200 limited tickets.

Email events@sunglasshut.co.za for more info.

Ok, so that’s pretty much a no-brainer. You buy the ticket and they give you a gift voucher worth more than the ticket. HAHA! Do you know how many shades you can buy for R2,000 or less? I’ll tell you – TONS! I have many many pairs of Sunglasses and I can tell you for an absolute fact that a pair of Ray-Ban Wayfarers are under two grand. Just by way of example.

This is basically a joke. If you’re smart you’ll get your ticket now before they change their minds!

Just to fill you in on who Tim Tebow is, he is God’s current gift to American Football. And I mean that in more ways than one. In particular, he is a highly-religious man and often thanks God in interviews for his performance as quarterback for the Denver Broncos. That is quite normal amongst successful public figures, but Tebow has been known to take it further:

In 2010, a new rule for the next NCAA football season, dubbed “The Tebow Rule” by media because it would have affected him, banned messages on eye paint. During his college football career, Tebow frequently wore references to biblical verses on his eye black. In the 2009 BCS Championship Game, he wore John 3:16 on his eye black; the verse was the highest-ranked Google search term over the next 24 hours, generating over 90 million searches. Additionally, later, when Tebow switched to another verse, there were 3.43 million searches of “Tim Tebow” and “Proverbs 3:5-6″ together. Tebow stated of the searches “It just goes to show you the influence and the platform that you have as a student-athlete and as a quarterback at Florida” [more here]

You get the picture.

It is for reasons like this, that top US talk show host, Jimmy Fallon, dressed up as a David Bowie / Tim Tebow hybrid and sang a re-hashed version of “Major Tom.”

It’s a quality performance, whether you know anything about Tim Tebow or not.
