Then he and Joe and Panoy of Sunken Pleasure (tourney runners-up) did this:





Danced in one pair of shorts. Five Ultimate, where would we be without you?

And Big Brother, as LARPers, didn't win the party because...? (Amos and his Southwest China team danced three straight hours in diapers...)

POSTSCRIPT: Congratulations to me, who had a greatest on my first point (down 2-1 to Tianjin Speed), then followed with a toe-the-line catch for score; a Callahan in Gm 2 and a layout catch for score on Universe Point; and a stomach virus. Yes, a stomach virus. Let the correlation or causation debate begin.
