33 years and counting... devoted Harry's game is pitching his tent]

A PUB landlord could be Wimbledon’s biggest fan — having camped out for tickets for 33 years in a row.
-
Harry Taylor, 51, has pitched his tent outside the tennis tournament every year since 1992 and says he has made lifelong friends through the experience.
The dedicated fan, who owns the Red Lion Inn in Bridge, Kent, has never been deterred from attending — even through extreme weather and injury.
After three decades, he is very prepared — with a professional “glamping” set-up and a membership at a local gym so he can shower.
This year, Harry joined the queue 48 hours early, at around 8.30am on Saturday. He was number 17 in line, which gained him a Centre Court ticket for the first day. Harry said: "This is my 33rd year so I am very experienced. I am the longest queuer left. The rest are all at about 20."
