You may have heard about Red Socks around America's Cup race time.
The story behind why New Zealanders are red socks crazy goes like this:
In 1995 Peter Blakes wife gave him a pair of red socks as a good luck charm for the race.
Everytime Peter Blake wore the socks his boat won their race.
On the one day that Peter Blake didn't wear his red socks his boat lost!
Since that year New Zealanders have worn red socks to support Team New Zealand during their Americas Cup races.
