"Turkey Bowl". In San Diego for Thanksgiving. I found out from my brother about the "Turkey Bowl" flag-football pickup games get together last minute and wasn't prepared for it. It was a big event with 42 people playing. 6 teams were formed randomly, 7 on each team, 6 on the field with 1 sub per team. It was all dudes playing with the exception of 2 ladies.
Our team did well. We played 3 games. Won 1 and lost 2 but we were competitive in all the games. I knew half of the guys on my team so it took a little a bit adjusting to how the other guys who I didn't know before the game. As a team, we made mistakes here and there on offense and defense but that was just part of playing the game.
The biggest concerned coming into this event for me was if I was in the right physical shape to play all 3 games but I made it unscathed and injury free. My body ached a little bit and I got winded but it's was good. It felt like an intensive cardio workout. Besides from seeing the family for Thanksgiving, this was an extremely fun event.
