Get Broomballed

The last scheduled Broomball event of the year is going down tonight, 10-11:30pm on the rink at Freeman. First timers are welcome and as always participants must wear clean shoes with no salt on the soles. You know what happens when you put salt on ice.

Think broomball is weaksauce? Try this tidbit from the Wikipedia article on Broomball on for size:

"Recent research indicates that a sport known as knattleikr was played in Iceland in the 18th century that was similar to broomball. The sport was almost considered warfare, with the occasional death not uncommon, and games could involve whole villages and lasted up to fourteen days"
Convinced? Then go. Or join the US Broomball Association. Or get some obscene broomball equipment. Or something.

Date: Sunday, February 25th
Time: 10:00pm - 11:30pm
Location: Freeman Spurrier-Snyder Rink (no salt on shoes)

BROOMBALL is BACK, BABY!

Broomball, the game made for gym class enthusiasts everywhere, is back.

It's going down TONIGHT at the ice rink at Freeman. All you need to bring with your fine self are a pair of sneakers that (this is important) do not have salt from the roads on them as, obviously, salt would fuck up the ice and then there'd be hell to pay.

Date: TONIGHT, Sunday, January 28
Time: 8:45pm
Place: Ice Rink
