My Kind of Tournament


On Friday we headed over to the "Rock, Paper, Scissors Throw Down," a tournament where no skills are required-only luck. Uncle Mike was in charge of the tournament. His college group was trying to set a Guinness World Book Record with the most participants in a Rock, Paper, Scissor tournament; and we went to support him (the final count of participants was 828). Everyone lined up and faced off against the opponent opposite them-with the winner being the one who won two out of three times. There were Rock, Paper, Scissor judges to judge each throw down. Nate, Caleb and Lauren all made it through the first round. Caleb and Lauren got knocked out in the second round, and Nate was eliminated in the third round. I thought they might be disappointed that they didn't win the grand prize ($3,000), but they were just glad to have beaten a college student at least once. Afterwards Tricia kept challenging them to RPS matches, to see if she could beat them. Keep practicing Tricia.

This is hilarious. I have never heard of a RPS tournament. I bet you all had a blast.
