What else is there to do on a Saturday in Davenport, Iowa?  Now if we only had a pig to chase around the athletic field......

To complete the montage of pictures, I need someone to post a few pictures of the mud ball fight that brokeout later in the afternoon.  Perhaps, the highlight of the QC games this year!

Throwing couple of the Day Award went to: Steve & Susan Jystads
Best Standing WOB awards went to:
Men's Open Class: Jeff Armstrong
Master's & Lightweights: Jim Spalding

The Throwing Couple of the Day award and the Best standing WOB awards were:

That top picture looks highly reminiscent of the Southern New Hampshire games this year.  By the end of the athletics, we looked around and realized that EVERYONE, including the pipers and vendors, had already left.  We had a blast until we realized we were chilled, and then it was purely a matter of gutting it out.

Judas priest, man!  That's bloody BRILLIANT!!!  Get us a pig, and make teams by class, best time is the winner.
