Sport: Cricket: The Ashes: England v. Australia at Lords: Frustrated crowds at the Test Match threw cushions onto the pitch and into memberIs boxes when play was halted early because of bad light. What looked like the start of an ugly incident was turned into good humour when Godfrey Evans, clutching a gin and tonic, appeared on the balcony of the memberIs boxes and joked with the crowd. Despite several taking several direct hits and near misses Godfrey did not spill a drop and soon had the crowd laughing. July 1981

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 1981 Ashes Test Match at Lords, we witness a moment of frustration turning into pure amusement. As play was halted early due to bad light, the disappointed crowds expressed their discontent by throwing cushions onto the pitch and even into member's boxes. What could have escalated into an ugly incident took an unexpected turn when Godfrey Evans emerged on the balcony of one of these exclusive boxes. With a gin and tonic in hand, Godfrey fearlessly faced the crowd with a mischievous grin. Despite being bombarded with direct hits and near misses from flying cushions, he managed to keep his drink intact without spilling a single drop. His composure and quick wit soon had everyone in stitches as laughter filled the air. This photograph captures not only a memorable moment during that July day in 1981 but also showcases how humor can diffuse tension and bring people together. The image serves as a reminder that even in moments of disappointment or frustration, there is always room for lightheartedness and joy. As we delve into this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints, it transports us back to an era where sportsmanship extended beyond just playing on the field. It reminds us that amidst fierce competition lies camaraderie amongst supporters and spectators alike – creating cherished memories that withstand the test of time.
