The quintessential Aussie experience:
A meat pie with tomato sauce
in one hand and a cold beer in the other
At the Aussie Rules Football finals with your brother
And every man and his dog.
Cheers crooned from the crowd,
‘Carn the Lions! ‘Carn the Swanies!
'Carn the pies! ‘Carn the doggies!
Which way will it go,
No one knows.
That's the thrill, that's the chase,
That's what it means to be Aussie in case!

Australia had the AFL Grand Final yesterday, the streets were quiet as everyone was glued to their TV, device or in their local pub cheering with a brood of others. Brisbane Lions won even after the Sydney Swans were on top of the ladder for most of the season.
