Aisle E featuring Jazz-Hands Dan...

Last Wednesday, Kyle and some friends competed in an annual dodge ball tournament hosted by a group on campus. The team has actually been together since their first semester and has competed ever since. Actual they won the whole tournament first semester and cam pretty close second. So with their game faces on, they went in for another shot at winning it all.

Now I know you may be wondering what their team name "Aisle E feat. Jazz Hands Dan" actually means. Aisle E is the row where Kyle, Dave, Justin, Greg and Mike have sat in since their first semester. Now Dan normally sits somewhere else, and his name used to be "Killer Dan." There's really no story or reason why they switched the name to Jazz Hands, maybe just to add a little flair to their name...

Their team was the first up in the practice rounds and they totally dominated. Then in their first game, they faced the all-girl team. It was a little tough because 2 of our friends were on the team and one of them definitely had an arm on her! But eventually the guys won. And they kept on winning...until finally they were in the finals with no losses in their record!

They faced off against a pretty competitive team, and one of their teammates I'm pretty sure was 7 feet tall. He was huge! And on top of that, he would knock away or catch any ball flying toward him, and would peg people with such accurate throws! So Aisle E's strategy was to try and get this guy out first... and toward the beginning of the final game, he sent a ball flying at Kyle. And.... he caught it and got the giant out!! The game went on, and there were definitely some nail biting moments, but in the end the winners were:

AISLE E AND JAZZ-HANDS DAN! Congrats guys!

And for those of you who felt very strongly about the Carib baskets in one of the previous posts, you'll love this. At the tournament, they were raffling off prizes, and wouldn't you know one of them is a Carib basket. And not just any basket, one that was just like the picnic basket I liked!! So at about the 5th time of calling names, we hear Kyle Morgan, so Kyle runs to go get his prize. I was just waiting for that basket haha! But he walked back with a piece of paper in his hand... good for 2 movie tickets. So I was a little bummed, but I can live without the basket. But a few seconds later we find out Kyle's friend Lateef got the basket and he said he would trade. So after all that, I got my basket!! And Kyle even carried it all the way home... what an amazing husband I have :)
