The Pull

This last weekend I was at The Pull, which is a 111 year old tradition at my college. This year was pretty wild as the Odd Year team won in a pretty definitive way. Pull's usually 3 hrs long and at the end of the Pull they measure to see which side has taken more rope. Well this year the sophomore team won in 67 mins. It was quite the sight. I was one of the lucky one's that got to coach a team, that was pretty special. The others I coached with make an effort to attend every year and most of us haven't missed one yet. This year was the 10th anniversary of my team winning the Pull, so it was pretty special for me to see this team win in such a legendary way. Every year I look forward to this weekend. It's a chance for us to get together and remember the good times we had when we had the responsibility of passing on this great tradition to the next generation. I'm sure we will continue on with this tradition for as long as possible, so if you're ever in at the Pull look for me on the banks of the Black River.
