...young Australian barely made it out of the Sari Club alive. Reese Schouse, dressed in a green short sleeved collared shirt and khaki shorts, had been drinking beers inside with three friends. The Aussies, all in their early twenties, were in Bali from Adelaide to play a rugby exhibition match. Inside Sari Club, Schouse remembers hearing two blasts.
