Almost 120,000 heavy drinkers and rugby enthusiasts pack the stands at the annual Hong Kong Rugby Sevens - a three day tournament that forms the backbone of social life in the former British colony.
Whilst international rugby is played out before them, those lucky enough - or brave enough - to be in the South Stand drink and party to within an inch of their lives.
Recently-retired Ireland and British Lions legend Brian O'Driscoll got in on the action this year, crowd-surfing his way across the mayhem.

World leaders have been known to grace the South Stand for a slice of the action. Everyone's favourite tyrant, Kim Jong-un, joined in the party and refreshed himself with a well-executed long arm beer.

We'll see you next year, Honkers!
