Look out for Cameron Henderson in the South Stand in a decade or so. With his father, Russel, as a role model, there's no telling what the rugby-mad kid will come up with to stand out among the bikinis, superheroes and assorted riffraff.
Henderson, a loss adjuster by trade and Scottish born 13-year resident of Hong Kong, was guiding his son through the masses under the East Stand in a feathery chicken suit, drawing crowds and cheers and plenty of requests for photos.
'It's sensible on Friday and Sunday, and costumes on the Saturday,' he said, snapping a pose with yet another passerby.
Henderson's wife had left for the day, so he'd vacated the South Stand to care for Cameron. He said all he remembered about most of the costumes was the heat beneath them.
'But I seem to hold up OK - from what I remember.' The chicken suit has special resonance this year, as it was made by a friend who is not well.
Cameron said with a slight smile that his father 'looks funny' in the costume but he's more interested in the rugby. He came one year as Zorro, but this year has his rugby shirt on.
'I just love rugby,' he said.
