Hello Everyone!
To start off the blog I figured I'd start with a quick recap of our last event. "Midnight Ultimate Frizbee" Unfortunately due to the type of the event "glow in the dark, at midnight" I don't have any pictures to post but, the event was a blast. We had approx 40 people show up for a great game. As soon as everyone arrived I asked Jeff-O to divide the teams evenly and pass out the glowing wrist bands but, after he made the teams "even" I have to admit, I was doubting my teams ability to have a fighting chance but we ended up doing ok. Just as we began the game a cool crisp air came off the lake bringing the usual monroe fog, making it ideal conditions for our game. Most of the game all we could see were blurs of red and blue as we all rushed by each other scrambling for the frizbee. The game was a blast and remained a tie until the very last play and we all survived with only a couple minor injuries. Lydia walked away proudly with a trophy of a swollen lip from a frizbee to the face and in a desperate scramble for a floater, Christina and I collided with a mind numbing, audible "Crack" as our shins slammed together. After a good couple minutes of limping around I think we were both ok, though the tennisball size bruise/bump on my shin might disagree. Another exciting twist was the unexpected shower we all received when the soccer field's sprinklers turned on for the last hour, most of were soaked by the end. All in all, it was a huge success and that event continues to be one of my all time favorites every year. The game ended right at midnight with a stunning, diving catch from Jake right into the end zone and sliding another 10 feet through the mud. Thanks everyone for coming, I'll see you this tuesday at my moms house for the Superhero Marathon! 8 hours of consecutive Spiderman movies with breaks only for food. It's from 12:00pm-8:00pm and bring $10.00 for food. See you there!
Shink!
