SHAMROCK GAMES

Get ready for the Shamrock Games, the most exciting athletic competition in the history of mankind – where competitors from around the globe compete in life-or-death battles which test their wits, athleticism and strength like never before. Or, to put it another way… Get ready for the Shamrock Games, a ridiculous spectacle in which participants test their shame-level like never before. But seriously, there is $2,000 in cold hard cash on the line!

Round out your ShamrockFest day by competing in the Shamrock Games - it is FREE to compete. You can compete as an individual or get a “TEAM” together and try to win the Shamrock Cup. There's no better way to have fun, maybe win some cool cash and quite likely embarrass yourself in front of hundreds of fellow knuckleheads. Here's the skinny…

There Are Four Competitions:

1. Green Balloon Partner Squeeze – 2:30-2:50PM:
   *  Two Person Teams (teams can be comprised of men, women or combination.) Objective:  Partners race through a course with a green balloon squeezed between the two of them. The fastest team through, without popping the balloon, wins. (We provide balloons to minimize cheating ;-)
2. Woman’s Legs in Kilt – 3:50-4:10PM:
   *  Individual Competition for Women.  Objective: Lasses proudly showcase their beautiful legs for an adoring audience…and try to get votes.
3. Best Men’s Legs in Kilt – 4:10-4:30PM:
   *  Individual Competition for Men.  Objective: Lads peacock on stage like buffoons, shamelessly courting votes for their “best legs.”
4. Hula Hoop Contest – 6:10-6:30PM:
   *  The person who can hula the longest wins. It is THAT EASY!

The Prizes:

1st Place: First place finisher in each competition wins $400 – plus 30 TEAM POINTS.

2nd Place: Second place finisher in each competition wins $100 – plus 20 TEAM POINTS.

3rd Place: Third place finisher in each competition wins exactly $0 – but gets 10 TEAM POINTS.

TEAM TROPHY: The Shamrock Cup, a large, magnificent crystalish bowl, will be presented to TEAM with the most overall TEAM points.
