The NZ PM thought that showing off the intellectual prowess of some of NZ’s favourite people could instil a bit of pride in the country. The PM organises a shindig at Eden Park and free entry to the event means the stadium is packed to the rafters. In front of thousands of kiwi’s, the PM calls Richie McCaw to the stage. The crowd cheers wildly and the PM and Richie exchange some banter. Finally the PM asks;

“Ruchie, cen you tull me, what 12 985 – 1349 uz without using a calculator?”

Richie uses his fingers, takes off his shoes and finally says “11 143”.

The PM sighs and says “Sorry Ruchie, that’s not correct”.

But the crowd starts chanting “Guve hum another chence, guve hum another chence!”

So the PM quickly thinks of another one.

“Ruchie, cen you tull me, what 1 244 x 2 uz without using a calculator?”

Richie again uses his fingers and toes, and finally says “2 844”.

The PM sighs again and says “Sorry Ruchie, that’s not correct either”.

Again the crowd starts chanting “Guve hum another chence, guve hum another chence!”

The PM goes with the flow and quickly thinks of a final one.

“Ruchie, cen you tull me, what 100/20 uz without using a calculator?”

Richie smiles proudly and says into the microphone “5!”.

The PM smiles and looks out to the crowd that starts chanting “Guve hum another chence, guve hum another chence!”
