Special Olympics
02 23 2010For Mike Sayre’s birthday, a bunch of folk got together and went to a local park to play uber-competetive Olympic sports like bocce ball and croquet and ladder golf. Two person teams competed, adopting countries to represent. Ben Newton & I came in second to last overall, competing as Brooklyn. “What?! Brooklynn’s a country! If Ice Dancing counts as a sport, then Brooklynn counts as a country!”

Congratulations to Nick & Tania (in the turquoise jerseys at the back), who took the ultimate prize as Khazakhstan. But with the amount of fun and beer we had that day, every one of us were winners! The only losers were the children whose parents had to scurry them out of the park when we arrived.
