What contributes to the raucous atmosphere at the Cathay Pacific/HSBC Hong Kong Sevens every year?  The fans.  More specifically, the fans clad in their outrageous costumes at Hong Kong’s most well-known annual sporting event, particularly in the infamous South Stand.  Here is a look at what we captured at Hong Kong Stadium during the 2015 event.

No costume in 2016 topped the clear winner the year before: a Kim Jong-un impersonator, surrounded by comrades and other characters. (photo by Christaan Hart / Meniscus Magazine)
