ULTIMATE FRISBEE
COLLEGE WORLD SERIES
The first spring season of the Tour Guy segment has come to a close and I think if you watch the Awards video I put together, you’ll probably gather that my spring didn’t suck. I was lucky enough to shoot at a number of different events (as you can see to the right), hang out with a wide range of people, and, of course, travel all over the place.
The Spring Awards video basically just highlights different ridiculous moments along the way and is a good way to kill three minutes and change. Really, who doesn’t want to relive the wonder that is me dancing around in a wrestling singlet on one of the national championship mats?
Here’s a brief rundown of what I learned this spring:
-
1.Duke: Wet, muddy, drunken, smelly. Duke kids aren’t the worst ever, Cameron Indoor is insane. Dickie V lightly shoved me.
-
2.Wrestling: Fans very serious, not smart to look at their ears too long, nearly all of them could snap me.
-
3.Hockey: Waves of North Dakota fans, playoff beards, and questionable face paint.
-
4.Eating: I finished respectably, which I’m pretty proud of, yet it’s somewhat troubling. FYI: I’m sub four and a half minutes on two pounds of fries.
-
5.Ultimate: One of the most fun events I’ve done, just because it was so open and laid back. Yes, a lot of hippes, but deep down, everyone loves a good hippy.
-
6.CWS: Favorite stop of the spring. Much bigger party atmosphere and tailgating than I thought there’d be in Omaha. The first weekend is completely out of control. I’m glad I got here before the new stadium in 2011.
-
7.Olympic Trials: The most informed fans of the spring, watching perhaps the most meaningful event of my spring season. Eugene is the perfect place for the Trials. Be ready to clap in unison until your hands bleed. Oh, and racewalking still looks silly.
