H-A-I-D-A, Did Haida win t’day?
The Totem Football League (TFL) is a 5-a-side American Football tournament between floors in the residence that choose to sign up. On Saturday I woke up and went to breakfast just about the time they were kicking off (1pm). I ate on the balcony so I could watch over Totem’s back lawn and see them play. I think this might be their last game of the season. Despite being a great team (including massive football players Ben and Justice who were at the Thunderbird Homecoming Game), I don’t think it’s been going too well. The first game or two were forefitted as Haida 6 were hungover or asleep, the last game they had 4 people constantly playing but won.
This time we made it to the game against a Shuswap team. I cheered my floor-mates on from the balcony as I ate some beef stew with mash potatoe and carrots. I got into the cheering a bit so went down to the field to help cheer them on. H-A -I-D-A, Haida’s gonna win today! Go Haida, Go Haida!
I really got into taking photos of the game, so there are a lot here though most people probably won’t be interested. Remember to click the first thumbnail then click (or press right on the keyboard) through all the photos and read the captions. I managed to survive the whole game without really knowing the rules of “football”. Feet are occasionaly used and I think we won in the end, or our cheer said we did just to be silly. I’m sure someone will comment below on the actual score and our tounament standing, or at least comment on their love of Ben’s cheerleading!
