Britain's Prince Harry, left, smiles with a Japanese para-athlete training boccia, a precision ball sport, at the Para Arena Saturday, Nov. 2019 in Tokyo. Prince Harry is in Japan to attend the Rugby World Cup final between England and South Africa in Yokohama Saturday
Prince Harry, Tokyo, Japan - 02 Nov 2019
Harry was in Japan for the Rugby World Cup final, and while he was there, he visited with "a Japanese para-athlete training boccia, a precision ball sport," and I assume here he has proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that he cannot juggle.

As you can see, Harry was seated with Fumihito and Kiko; he looks very invested in the match. (It was England v. South Africa; South Africa won.) Question: Is rugby very popular in Japan? (I know the host country is not predicated on popularity, certainly, and rugby isn't very popular in the US, so I am myself unclear on where, exactly, Rugby Is Hot.)

This, too, is how I plan to greet Harry should I run into him in the street. (In actuality, this is former Wales rugby captain Gareth Thomas and they are at a "Terrence Higgins Trust event ahead of a National HIV testing week campaign," a cause near and dear to Harry's heart.)

Terrence Higgins Trust event, Twickenham Stoop, London, UK - 08 Nov 2019
The Duke of Sussex will attend a Terrence Higgins Trust event with former Walesrugby captain Gareth Thomas ahead of National HIV Testing Week at the Twickenham Stoop, home of Premiership Rugby club Harlequins, on Friday 8th November.
National HIV Testing Week, which will run from 16th to 22nd November, aims to increase awareness and acceptance of HIV testing by dispelling the stigma that surrounds the virus. The week, which promotes the benefits of regular testing and treatment for both the individual and the community, also raises the awareness of how quick and easy it is to test for HIV – be it in clinical settings, in primary care, through community-based rapid testing or via postal testing. This helps to improve early diagnosis and treatment of HIV, thus reducing onward transmission.
