The Maori All Blacks got acquainted with Chicago on Monday, racing around the city like they were on the show The Amazing Race.

That's how it was billed, and certainly, that association would have been endorsed by Phil Koeghan, host of The Amazing Race tv show and fellow New Zealander.

Koeghan was present when the Maori All Blacks and the All Blacks played in Chicago two years ago. This time, it's the rugby players who are entering his world.

The players got to see some of the cities impressive public art, and cover the massive city. Seems like they didn't do that much racing though.

As one player said: "Sort of different thank being in New Zealand, eh? All these towers hanging around."

 Yup, that's pretty much it.
