Ben Sigmund Facts

Permalink Permalink
over 15 years ago · edited over 13 years ago
After the legendary performance of Ben Sigmund on Sunday (best I've ever witnessed him play personally, and that was even if he hadn't score the last gasp winner), I mentioned that I think of him as the Chuck Norris of NZ Football.

I'm rolling with this one and have started compiling a list of Ben Sigmund Facts, which I'm hoping people will help to add to.

I'm hoping to get some prizes from interested sponsors to give away to some of the better contributions, with extra marks awarded for originality and footballing relevance.

Feel free to have a look on Twitter at @Siggy2010Facts where the facts will be compiled.

I'll get something started up on Facebook too if this gains momentum.

At the moment there is only one Fact (Ben Sigmund doesn't mark players - he permanently stamps them), but feel free to tweet using your own account with the hashtag: #BenSigmundFacts and I'll RT out your Tweets.

Or if you aren't Twitter enabled, then post your Facts here and I can forward them to the Twitterverse.ahmad2010-12-07 19:52:04

It has been scientifically proven that a team of Ben Sigmunds would win the world cup.

?
its a bit sh*t, I know.
But he's my favourite player, so I needed to say something.

siggy used to be known as the the Landcrab, not the sea monster. But last Sunday he had a monster of a game. He is a legend and I wont be calling for him to be dropped. This season I've watched him not only having to do his job but covering someone else far too often.
Proud to have attended the first 175 Consecutive "Home" Wellington Phoenix "A League" Games !!

Ben Sigmund once played against Chuck Norris in goal. Siggie's unstoppable header was met by a Norris roundhouse kick so powerful that the two canceled each other out and ripped a hole in the fabric of space/time, into an alternate universe where Ben Sigmund is a Hollywood action star and Chuck Norris plays in the Nix back four.

It has been pointed out that Siggy's pace, strength and determination on the field may be linked with unusually high levels of testosterone. This proves the theory that Siggy has three testicles.

He has also initiated the play which lead to Fallon scoring the winning goal vs Bahrain as well as getting a goal+assist last weekend.

Some say under his kit he is actually a T100 and that he sleeps standing up with both eyes open. We just know him as The Sig.

Its no longer a problem.

Last night I had a dream that Siggy missed the cook strait ferry so he just swam it. I think reading this thread had something to do with my mind coming up with that.

Some say that his sweat can be used to clean precious metals, and that if he felt like it, he could fire Terry Serepisos. We just know him as The Sig.

Some say that recently pigs in Mexico started to die of something called "Sigflu", and that he's had to give up binge drinking since it's nearly hit $2 a litre. All we know, is that he's called.. "The Sig"

Siggy is the only man that is acceptable for men to dream about.
