The crowd held up fingers to signify which contestant's booty they thought bounced the best.

I used to live a few blocks away from Porky’s and remember happening across the awesomeness that was Booty. Stars aligned last night as the old crew (now geographically scattered) hosted a fabulous reunion party complete with a booty-bouncing contest and double dutch jump roping! Check out pics here.

Revolutionaries

70's protest

Recently I’ve gotten bent out of shape because of the homophobia that’s pervaded my life.

2010 RCSA Games: Come get some!

Swallows vs. Extreme

The Swallows swap high-5's with Extreme after dominating them with a final score of 10-0.

The competition is fierce this year as RCSA teams vie for the best standing. I caught several of the afternoon matches on Sunday and will be the first to admit how entertaining they are to watch.

I happen to be around Pioneer Square an hour ago to see Bolivia and others dragging it up; they were waving, posing for and with on-lookers, as well as answering questions.
