COMP #4 – SHUTTLE FLIGHT HOME
Each team had to get back to the 50 yard line, together, which every route they would like. Both team took off the same, treacherous route, down a briar filled hill, over the muddy plains then all hell broke broke loose!
YHC looked back at the American’s were attacking the Russians. There was screaming and Dog’s getting into the action, Bloodhound about took off Leaky’s arms, Hombre was dragging George across the asphalt parking lot, Lara Croft and Homeboy were dropping atomic elbows on the Leaky trying to get their sandbag back. Bo got excited and was taking it out on Hombre :). Order was restored when Harp and Aisle 7 got back to the Royal Rumble, with the Americans sneaking away….
* TEAM AMERICA WAS VICTORIOUS; USA 3 RUSSIANS 1
* The American’s all received Moon Pie’s for their place in history!
