9/17/2003: World Mudbowl Championships

Undertoad • Sep 17, 2003 12:20 pm

Happy Wednesday! This is a shot from the World Mudbowl Championships, which took place recently in North Conway, New Hampshire. Eight New England teams fought to win the bowl which has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for charity.

It's "two-hand touch" American football. For our worldly visitors, this is the same as the regular game, except that you officially stop the ball carrier if you touch him with both hands. As opposed to tackling the ball carrier, where you bring him to the ground completely. In the mud it doesn't look like there's much difference...

Silly New Englanders. How can it be the WORLD championship when they're all from this little patch of the world?

That's not mud. It's liquid feces.

Looks more like they are playing "Get as dirty as possible"... which sounds rather fun, actually...

That is a very cool photograph.

You're right there, warch. That's one in a million.

It's the World championships because non-New Englanders are naturally inferior. Therefore the best N.E. team IS the World champ. :D

Not a sport I would ever participate in. Why does everything have to end up looking like "liquid Poo" dave? Why the fascination?:confused:

dave • Sep 17, 2003 6:55 pm

There's no fascination. It's the first time I've mentioned it. And the reason I did is because it was the subject of another IotD. And it wasn't "liquid Poo". It was liquid feces. If you're in any way offended, I recommend removing the bug from your ass.

Leah • Sep 17, 2003 7:11 pm

Not offended dave, not at all. Also there's no bug up my ass just to set the record straight. :p

ndetroit • Sep 17, 2003 7:52 pm

and by "bug", he actually means "liquid feces" ..

*cough*..

dave was actually referring to this enchanting thread from a few days ago:

Ya'll are all so personal, sounds like you know each other in the real world....

Saraax • Sep 18, 2003 12:24 am

Leah • Sep 18, 2003 1:39 am

Some body forget to tell me that this isn't the real world. Oops.:haha:

A local fraternity does the same thing here at Dartmouth, just down the road from North Conway. Here's my shot from the school paper

Nice. I should think a really good BELT would be the most important equipment here.

(That's belt as in holdin' up yer trousas, not belt as in belt of scotch.)

xoxoxoBruce • Sep 18, 2003 6:09 pm

Either, or better yet both, UT.:D
