    Strangle question, but a serious one.
    What (NZ) time did the Lions v All Blacks game kick-off on June 26 1993, when the Lions won the second test in Wellington?

    I don't know, but ..

    Back then NZ grounds did not have floodlights, so it probably kicked-off afternoon local time. My memory of watching those games is that they were played in sunlight.

    That game in particular was definitely played in sunlight (was on ESPN classic yesterday). My memory of watching these games is that they were on in the middle of the night, around 2/3am kind of time. On ITV if I remember rightly.
