Rival Medical Schools in London battle it out in their annual rugby football game. Each year, this event involves even the spectators, as sacks of flour are thrown and high power firehoses are used. Final score: one injured, one pub wrecked! This doesn't look like a real riot. Its staged for playtime only. A girl is holding a cylinder and another girl runs up and knocks it out of her arms. In spite of the fun their having, some still do manage to get hurt. A group of students carry away another student. CU A young girl is laying on the ground with blood on the front of her sweater. CU Sex For The Cup 68 sign. High Angle shot rugby players have plaid shirts on playing against guys with dark shirts on. (Looks like good exercise with all that running, The ball they toss around looks more like a basketball rather than a rugby ball.) The guys in the dark shirts are running and tossing the ball around to each other on the field. Meanwhile the guys in the plaid shirts keep up with them trying to get the ball.
