Info
Event
Holiday Sports Festival
The event takes place in a big convention center where the auto show takes place every year. The place is packed with every kind of sport out there, and you can try them. Tens of thousands of people come through there.
50+ kickers come from all over North America. We shred, 4 square, try other sports and games, then eat good Chicago pizza and sandwiches, and make up really fun ghetto games like left hand throw and crotch fire, and wander around the dark empty McCormick Center and play footbag golf...
wake up - eat pancakes and repeat.
Competition
Day 1: 2 Square
Day 2: Circle Contest, Request Combo
Day 3: Sick 1/3 hosted by Zac and Matt
Hotel
Hyatt McCormick (312-567-1234) http://mccormickplace.hyatt.com
