Paddy Reuben, a devoted fan of the New Zealand Warriors, recalls his first encounter with the team back in 1995.
He and a friend managed to scale a rail-side fence at Carlaw Park to catch a glimpse of the team playing the Canberra Raiders.
Despite the danger of passing trains, Reuben was captivated by the experience and has remained a loyal supporter ever since.
Over the past decade, the Warriors have experienced a rollercoaster ride of disappointing seasons.
