Sure, there’s a trophy (it’s usually a painted wooden shield). But the real win is the feeling of being part of something simple and joyful. You’ll leave with a tired smile, maybe a little paint in your hair, and a story to tell on Monday.
So, mark October 12th to 18th on your phone. Go find a red balloon or a blue ribbon. Show up, cheer loud, and don’t worry about looking silly. That’s the whole point—because life’s too short for boring weekends.
See you on the battlefield. Team Blue forever? Or… maybe I’ll switch sides if Red offers better snacks. Just kidding. Mostly.
