No-sex plan risks groans of displeasure from All Black fans

No-sex plan risks groans of displeasure from All Black fans

It is all part of an advertising campaign to start next week on the official All Blacks’ website, sponsored by Telecom New Zealand.

Fans who sign up for the “Abstain for the All Blacks” campaign will receive black rubber finger-rings to show their support for the national side during the six-week cup series. Posters with the slogan, “Touch, pause and don’t engage” are set to appear in bus shelters, but plans were ditched to place signs above urinals in bars and restaurants urging men to “Think of your mum in a bikini — Abstain for the All Blacks.”
