Rugby World Cup tickets are practically flying off the shelves as rugby lovers around the world rush to make sure they don’t miss out on any games. The quarterfinal match between France and the Springboks is perhaps one of the most anticipated matches of the World Cup and has already sold out. One person who was absolutely dismayed by this is South African comedian Jason Goliath who is currently holidaying in Italy with his wife.
Heading online, the funny guy shared how disappointed he was and quickly started begging anyone who could help to please plug him with two tickets. Surprisingly enough, he got the tickets.

Tickets to the quarterfinal match between the Springboks and France retailed between R1 500 to just above R6 000.
Despite the price tag, they were sold out pretty quickly.
Jason Goliath, who is currently enjoying a vacation with his wife, is one of many who failed to get his hands on tickets.
With nothing to lose, he decided to take to social media to ask any big corporation to kindly get him some tickets.

“Your boy is in Europe [sic] which means close to Paris, I can get there easy if your brand has quarterfinal tickets for the South Africa game. Maybe you’re not even going and you want to give your tickets away, or sell them worst case scenario. But imagine me at the quarterfinal, South Africa Rugby World Cup game, doing content for your brand,” was the comedian’s plea.
Mission accomplished
The clip wasn’t even up for a long time when the funny guy was back online and sharing the good news — he had gotten the tickets!
“This is the face of a babalaased (hungover) person, but this is also the happiest person in Italy because I put it out there into the universe. My wife said ‘highly unlikely, you’re wasting your time, you’re embarrassing even’ she mentioned,” he said.
“I’ll give you one guess, as to who’s going to the Rugby World Cup quarterfinal. Proving, that if you put something out there believing and dala (do) what you must, nothing is impossible. So yes, I’m babalaased (hungover) on a maximum level, but yes, I’m happy on a maximum level because these eyes will watch Siya Kolisi and ouens [guys] play against France in France,” said Jason who is obviously over the moon.
