Locked Up in Cape Town

from Proper True Yarn Hosted by Proper True Yarn: Comedy, Storytelling, Adventure

On a rugby league tour to South Africa, Jonny Raithby thought the biggest danger was sharks in the harbour—until unmarked cops threw him and his mates into the back of a van. With bloodied legs, a drunken swim, and a midnight ride through the dark, things went from funny to terrifying fast. From near-death in a cell to bribery, strip club chaos, and the harsh reality of overseas police, this yarn is one of Jonny’s scariest yet. 📞 Get involved🎤 Send a voice message to the boys.
