There is a TV in the bar.
There's always a TV in the bar, but it's not always on.
Now it is, and it is showing two groups of men in colourful shorts and shirts (each group wearing the same colours so you can distinguish them) on a green lawn, in an arena full of thousands of people tooting horns.
There is commentary, sometimes excited, but not enough for Urquhart (who is watching in great fascination) to understand what is really going on.
He's drinking beer from a bottle, and keeps watching.
Eventually, he'll make sense of this.
