Last weekend we had our 2nd Flip Cup Tournament, and it could not have gone any better!

We had 12 amazing teams, with great costumes, fun attitudes, and great flipping skills. Plus, we had a killer bar, Blue Cue, as our host.

The event ran from 1:00pm until almost 5pm, and the winners had more than their share of beer, needing eight matches (Best of 11) to win it all.

Xoso will be collecting toys for donation to the "Toys for Tots" organization, a non-profit organization run by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve.

If you'd like to help out, please bring in a new, unwrapped toy to the Boys and Girls Club (on 12th and G Street) between Sunday, December 5th, and Wednesday, December 15th. Ask the front desk for assistance or bring it into the gymnasium during a Xoso game.

MISSION:

Good morning kickballers!

Sorry for the late notice; we've been debating postponing kickball today due to the incoming storm and have finally decided that it will be much more fun to kick off the season next week in the sun. With winds over 20mph and rain increasing throughout the afternoon it wouldn't be nice to bring you all out of your warm homes and make you drive in this weather.

We're pushing the season back one week, so if you plan your game times weeks in advance, make note!

Thanks for coming out to our big Pirates vs. Ninjas pub crawl last Saturday! It's hard to say how many people there were total, since different factions moved on ahead and others stayed behind. Estimates have ranged anywhere from 100 to 200. Regardless, everyone had a blast.

We had pirate ships, ninja turtles, pirate/ninjas, and even Chun Li from Street Fighter. Check out the photos and re-live the night!
