Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose.
Well, it looks like we lost this one team. We didn’t make it into the Olympics and as President of the International Federation of Snowball Throwing, I’ll take full responsibility. Apparently there’s an official process for being part of the Olympics. Me sending a few emails to contactus@(insert various URLs here) didn’t quite have the intended result.
I love snowball throwing for so many reasons and by the looks of the petition, I’m not alone. I’m confident that someday there will be a gold medal awarded and I’m going to hold out hope that it will be awarded to me.
The bad news is there won’t be any official medals awarded for snowball throwing in Vancouver. The good news is that we don’t need to wait another four years to participate in snowball throwing. In fact, I think I’m going to go get my ‘throw on’ before I watch the Opening Ceremony. As I’ve always said, this movement can’t be stopped.
Snowball Throwers Unite!
Thanks for leading a great effort. Keep your head up, Josh.
Josh, you are such a special boy. Good luck with that GA snowball throwing venture. Hope you got a lot of practice in last weekend, since it’s unlikely we’ll see snow again for another decade.
