  • The Seven – from Fracsac

    Thang Two

    Frisbee run around NOMA. Last man to front with frisbee then throw to last man. A drop is a roll of the beat down die.
    Pax getting too good at frisbee. Only one drop, so next round is 3 passes per run to front. The mere thought of such a feat brought severe anxiety to the pax and there were many drops, hence several rolls and several sets of exercises.
