Warm Women's World Cup welcome from remote and laid back Dunedin

DUNEDIN, New Zealand — Hanging on the edge of the stunning South Island, in one of the world’s more remote countries, sat a scenic, minor-league sized city founded by Scottish immigrants.

Then, a few weeks ago, one of the world’s biggest sporting events came to town, bringing in thousands of visitors.

Reporter, in a cab: “So, is Dunedin excited for the Women’s World Cup?”

Cab driver: “Yes — and no.”
