I actually saw a team haka before a match when I played in California. it's impressive and it attracts all the fans from nearby fields at large tournaments.

I've had a team of guys (not the All Blacks-except for one guy who was trying out) do the hakka for #1 here... right in my face... up CLOSE...

It makes the hair stand up on your arms... and hope you don't meet those guys in a dark alley.

Talk about a warm kiwi reception :o)

We all had dinner after they scared the living daylights out of me.

I love to watch the close-ups of the opposing team while the All Blacks do the Haka. They feign indifference or contempt, but it is written on their faces that they are a) intimidated and b) envious.
