Those who experienced the Hendrix Ultimate Experience experienced quite the experience. As the sun rose over the battlefields of Burns Park a team-nay, a family-emerged from the mist with their battle axes reflecting the morning light. With a belligerent battle cry the teams stormed the fields to take on their opponents, which included local rivals as well as foreigners from the Land of 10,000 Lakes.

Donuts were had by all.

The highlight of the tournament for the Hendrix men was when they had their way with the OSU men, coming from behind to finish them off. Jay Stravinsky thrust himself vertically into the air, much like a pencil, crying, "This win was more succulent than the ambrosia nectar of the gods." Neil Kopper nodded knowingly.

The women also drank from the chalice of victory. Ginger Turner had her first taste of the libation manifested in her perfect premier point positively proving her prowess as a pivotal player. Following the victorious final game against the worthy women of Carleton an inside source heard Lauren Johnson saying, "We played like graceful gazelles gambling across the grassy ground." Neil Kopper nodded knowingly.

Not everything was sunshine and gumdrops as frustrations flared occasionally during the tournament. The multitude of spectators gawked at the first visor throw of 2004 and the first ever bandanna throw-hereafter recorded in the history books as bad-danna. Andrew Hardaway reveals his apathetic attitude when he expounded his philosophy: "I don't mind if people drop end zone passes thrown directly at their chests in no wind. My favorite thing is when my teammates change the force because I get to run more. I'm really just out here for the exercise. I like losing-it builds character." Neil Kopper nodded knowingly. B*****s!
