I haven’t noticed any difference where I live other than that people are excited and talking about rugby more than usual. I don’t live near any of the venues though, so I imagine things might be a little wilder around Tokyo, Yokohama, and Osaka.

One of the National players is from the city I live in, so people are pretty excited here; especially since Japan bear Ireland the other day.

I read a couple articles about slight traffic/transport problems due to the Rugby World Cup, and bars stocking up on beer. Other than that, I don’t think it’s too wild. I could be wrong though.

Apparently, they’ve got a two hour long all you can drink beer train rolling around Tokyo somewhere that is a temporary thing for the Rugby World Cup. I imagine that gets a little out of hand.

It can be a source of problems without the rugby;-) The Japanese nomihoudai (all you can drink option) can really knock you on your ass. Especially when you first come over here and can’t comprehend anything other than what a golden opportunity you have to get absolutely plastered.
