A Passionate Farewell

Shaun Pollock retired from cricket in January 2008. I found this video on youtube of the amazing send off given to him by South Africa fans. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pE_cZjSYs-0

Shaun was an excellent all rounder and deserved every bit of support and praise given to him by the fans. I know I could never adequately express my gratitude for all the enjoyment I have received by watching him play.

I always love seeing the passion of the fans towards their favorite teams and players. To see any group rally so passionately around a given cause, in adoration rather than violence, is very uplifting to the human spirit.
