Western Province Rugby have issued a public apology for the actions of a few players during the provincial rugby side’s ticker tape through Cape Town following their victory over the Sharks in the 2012 Currie Cup Final. A number of players tossed R50 notes to fans who had lined up to catch a glimpse of the team on Tuesday afternoon.

News24 had more:

WP Rugby Union president Thelo Wakefield apologised for the incident, explaining that upon stopping in Khayelitsha on the third leg of the parade, part of the crowd had appealed to players on the bus for money suggesting they were hungry.

Wakefield said: “It was maybe a little naive of the players involved, but their intentions were good. There was certainly no negative intention, only positive. If it was perceived in any other way, we apologise.”

Bawlers.
