That seemed to just about sum up the crowd at the first Black Caps match in Queenstown in more than nine years.
The 5855-strong audience to the deciding twenty20 between New Zealand and Sri Lanka welcomed back men’s test cricket on Saturday and were treated to what many could only describe as "a bloody good arvo" as they left Sir John Davies Oval.
Invercargill’s Kyle McKenzie and his mates provided much of the off-pitch entertainment, with Mr McKenzie dressed in his whites — both cricket and wedding — to celebrate his stag party.
On the other side of the pitch, a host of Sri Lanka fans donning colourful wigs, waving flags and having an all-round good time kept the energy pumping throughout both innings.
There were whispers of a super-over from Sri Lankans as the last few balls became intense, but as the Black Caps pulled through, the visitors’ fans were still smiling.
