St. George Illawarra Dragons welcomed back home to Jubillee stadium by an extra noisy crowd!
World Record breaking attempt immediately prior to kick off raising money for the St. George Foundation

St.George Bank invites its customers and fans to make a lot more noise than usual at the highly anticipated St George Illawarra Dragons v Cronulla Sharks game on Sunday, 29 March, as the Bank hands out 10,000 kazoos and calls for five minutes of ‘noise’ for a Guinness World Record attempt.

More than 10,000 kazoos will be distributed at the game and fans will be asked to join in a rousing rendition of When the Saints Go Marching In during a five-minute period immediately prior to kick off at 3.05pm.

If successful, the crowd will make history and will be recognised by the Guinness Book of World Records as the biggest ‘kazoo orchestra’ ever, breaking the previous world record of 3,800 kazoo players set in November 2007 at the Bob Jones University in South Carolina, USA.

St.George CEO Greg Bartlett said that this was also an opportunity to celebrate the Dragons’ first match back at its home ground with the official re-opening of the WIN Jubilee sports stadium after a year of extensive renovations.

“St. George has long supported the Dragons – it’s a part of our heritage and we hold this link with immense pride.

“We are thrilled to help celebrate the return of the Dragons back home to where they belong! The team is such an important and integral part of the St George community so we are expecting people will love getting involved in such a fun event.” he said.

“In the spirit of celebrating the warmth of our community, St.George Bank will also donate $1 to the St.George Foundation for every person who is recorded as contributing to the world record. In addition, Dragon fans can also donate to the St.George Foundation, which, over the years, has raised money to support many Australian not-for-profit organisations that run projects and initiatives to help children and teenagers with special needs,” said Mr Bartlett.

The Dragons v Sharks game on Sunday, March 29 will kick off at 3.05pm at WIN Jubilee Stadium, with the Guinness World Record attempt starting at approximately 2.55pm.
