Commentators and fans are begging Beauden Barrett for an early return to his Blues side after last week's loss to the Chiefs at Eden Park.
Barrett, who is on sabbatical, watched the Kansas City Chiefs play the San Francisco 49ers at the Super Bowl.
This year he has been to Thailand with his wife Hannah, and to Fiji to celebrate their first wedding anniversary, followed up by this latest lads' trip to the States.
Among his gang were Rich Lister Mark Francis, former All Black team mate Israel Dagg and property developer Kurt Gibbons; the latter two, who holiday often with Barrett, had an investment property build planned with him in Queenstown a few years back but that hasn't come to fruition.
Francis' girlfriend Dominique Wisniewski and Gibbons' wife, The Crowd Goes Wild presenter Makere Gibbons, are close friends.
