We arrive at Ellis Park. Excitement is high. We’re part of a throng of expectant fans streaming into the zone. First we must pass security. Gidon has a backpack filled with illegal substances. Egg sandwiches, water and lord knows what else. It’s a tense moment as he passes through the electronic device and is accosted by an affable security fellow who would clearly rather be one of the beautiful game worshippers. “I’m sure you don’t have anything we need to worry about in your bag do you sir?” “Absolutely not,” says Gidon. “Well you’re in then,” says affable security fellow.
Meanwhile, Eytan and Ilan, Gidon’s young sons are being patted down thoroughly by an ex Boss agent two feet away. Indeed, this man is single handedly protecting us from the dangers these two clearly dangerous scallywags might wreak on an unsuspecting public. I thank my lucky stars we’re in such good hands.
