As many of you surely remember, last year's Cornell Footbag Jam was the definition of good times. Free housing at a frat house, a world class juggling show (the WJF world champ performed), excellent tourney venue (astroturf!), good parties and high level shred all made it an event to remember. And by high level shred, I mean Dave Clavens, Jorden Moir, Chris Dean, Willie Digges, Pete Bowler, Matt Cross, Ianek Regimbald, Danny Petrick, and even some players who are too cool for BAP were all there, shredding like maniacs.
So, by popular demand, the Cornell Footbag Club (Bear Feet) is proud to announce:
The Second Cornell Footbag Jam
will be going down this year!
Details:
WHEN: October 27th and 28th. That's the last weekend in October.
WHERE: Cornell University, Ithaca, NY. This is 6 hours from Boston, 5 hours from NYC, 6 hours from Montreal, and reasonably close to a whole bunch of other towns. If you live in the NorthEast, you have no excuse not to be here.
WHY:Because it was awesome last year, and you either:
a. Had a blast last year and want to experience that joy again.
b. Missed it, kicked yourself for it, and begged us to host it again so you could try and redeem yourself.
WHO: You! The Cornell Footbag club! And a special guest in the juggling show, whose name eludes me, but he can juggle 3 balls on his feet and 3 on his hands at the same time. I've seen video, he's awesome. You should come to watch him in the juggling show. We may be able to convince him to play some footbag too. I'll post an attendance list as the dates draw nearer.
WHERE DO I SLEEP:We can provide housing for a lot of people, but the earlier you contact us and commit, the better your chance of getting space.
WHAT: There will be a few events, but mostly this will be a laid-back, fun footbag jam. There will also be a juggling show, similar to last year's, except I hear that the footbag act will be a lot better. Some guy from Ireland is performing. There will be lots of shredding on both days. I can also pretty much guarantee a 4 square tournament and Sick Trick. We're also considering running Circle Comp and 2 square.
Get hype!
