Festival of football Sports Illustrated senior writer Gary Smith spent three days in August enjoying a footy-fest in Sydney with two natives. He didn't have much luck convincing his mates that the NFL game measured up to two Australian brands, but he gained a new appreciation for rugby and the Aussie rules variety. Our photo essay follows Gary, Ribs and Nash on their rough-and-tumble adventure, and includes excerpts from Smith's "Aussie Rules" story, which originally appeared in the Aug. 16, 1999 issue of SI.
