Like every Sunday, the Resident Hall Association puts on a program for the fellow dorm kids. This week was me and Josh's turn to to a program and we thought what a great idea it would be to do a relay race! Since the snow has recently been melting, we thought this was a great time to do a naked relay race because of how warm it has been. Ever since we put the promotional signs up last week, students have been talking about this event for quite some time.
The race entailed students to strip down to their skibbies and complete a set of relay oriented tasks. They had to first run across the parking lot, up the muddy hill and put on a freezing cold wet tshirt. Once they did that, they had to high tail it over to the basketball hoop to spin around 10 times and make a basket. Once they scored, they had to run all the way back to the starting point to close in their time. The top 3 winners would be granted gift card prizes to safeway. 1st place - $60 2nd place - $30 3rd place - $10.
At precisely 8:00 sharp, students started to gather in the MPR waiting for the race to start. I was surprised when 20 or so people showed up but I was let down to hear that only 7 wanted to compete. The rest were too chicken to compete. Throughout the entire race, there was 1 spot where kids were slipping and getting all sorts of mud over themselves. I felt kind of bad for how cold it was but it really didn't matter because they were all going for the gold! in the end the top 3 came out victorious and finally can afford some food for a change! When everything was all over, we had hot coco waiting in the MPR for all the freezing contestants that didn't win anything.
All in all the event was a lot of fun and we must wait until next Sunday to see what RHA has in store...
Until nexttime
