Stade Rochelais: The story behind the photo showing the Old Port in jubilation, which floods social media

After a long day of celebrations, Stade Rochelais Captain Gregory Alldritt posted the image taken by Jean-Christophe Sounalet on Instagram Sunday evening. The crowd is dotted with flags representing the colors of the caravel clubs, and gathered around the Old Port players' bus. Many have taken the cliche to social media, just like the player of France XV.

Greg Alldritt posted this photo. It is huge.

Jean-Christophe Sounalet captured this moment from the small terrace at the top of La Tour de Nesle Hotel. He had made arrangements with the owner to have access to this unoccupied terrace. He was able, from the top, to capture the towers and Duperre quay. This photo will be a part of the city's history.
