It started in Cape Town. At the opening night of Kevin Hart’s South African tour, Siya Kolisi, the Springbok World Cup-winning captain, presented the comedian with a Bok jersey as a gesture of appreciation and support.
The jersey served as a reminder of the spirit and unity that the Springboks and their supporters have come to embody.
According to Times Live, the gift was a huge surprise for Hart, who was obviously taken aback by the gesture.
