YOUR VOTE decides the 2009 GNC (Ngamer vs Thingy!)
« on: November 12, 2009, 04:22:00 am »
The third annual Grand National Championship will be taking place very shortly (possibly just 10 days from now, if we can work out the scheduling), and it will see current Champ Ngamer attempting to defend his title against the #1 Contender and Virginia RMC winner Thingy aka Brick aka Scott.

Eight of the nine events that will make up this GNC have been selected, but we couldn't agree on what to add as the final challenge and so we decided to put it to a vote!  Whatever option gets the most support in the next 48 hours will be selected!

So, which event would you most like to see Ng and Thingy compete against one another in
?  Your options are

* Obstacle Course - this is pretty open ended... could be something like 1 lap around the track on a bike, then a backwards run, then an army crawl across the field.  or could do things more like at a park... like monkey bars then run up a big slide and jump off, or something

* Tennis - a short 1v1 games using standard rules... be warned though that neither of us have played for many years, and were never very good in the first place!

* Fumble Drill - we both start on the ground, Jimbo would throw the football in the air and the first to run over and "recover the fumble" would be the winner.  we would do about 5 throws to try to reduce the luck factor of bad bounces

* Darts - think both of us have played this a little bit but certainly aren't experts.  I have a board downstairs so it would be no trouble to do, just not sure how entertaining it would be to watch

* Hula Hoop - um.... most rotations in a minute or something?  (I don't know, Thingy insisted on this being an option for some reason, doesn't seem like it would be that fun to watch)

* Jimbo Rush Defense - each of us would "kick off to" and then attempt to tackle Jim three times.  whoever allowed him to gain the least amount of total yards would be the winner

So go right ahead and pick your favorite of those 6 options!  The winning choice will join the following eight events, as seen under this spoiler tag:

Spoiler
    * Sumo Wrestling (best of 3)    
    * Soccer Penalty Kicks (both take 5 kicks while the other is in goal)    
    * Football Toss - Accuracy (will try to hit targets at distances of 10-15-20 etc yards)    
    * 40 Yard Dash    
    * Basketball Shots - "Around the World" (have to hit shots for all over the court within a short time limit)    
    * Arm Wrestling    
    * Jumping Events (long jump, broad jump, and vertical leap)    
    * 400 Meter Marathon  

EDIT - New to the GNC?  Here's the breakdown of the last two!

This isn't even a question... Jimbo Rush Defense it is!

Technically the 2007 GNC was more recent than the '06 GNC.

I vote for Darts. Jimbo Rush Defense is too dangerous.  I would do it if we all wore thick clothes such as: winter jackets, carharts/other wintery pants....

I vote we swap out the 40yd dash with Chin Ups, as that seems to be an important feature of GNC!

My thoughts on an Iowa vs Wisc GNC went immediately to

cow tipping or cow milking

corn husking
