    That’s right ‘du-ers, Frisbee Golf is here, and hippies, slackers, and frat boys from far and wide are descending upon our friendly city to take part in the madness. Get our your yoga mats, exercise balls, crystals, vaporizers, or whatever you need to limber up physically and spiritually for the event.

    What: 9 holes of high flying frisbee golf action. We’ll play with partners in an “alternate shot” format. Tee shots must be alternated. Teams will keep score for each other, and the event organizer will be the official scorer and judge.

    Where: We’ll gather on the “lawn” just inside the Sichuan University North Gate

    When: Tuesday April 30th, the 2nd day of the upcoming 3 day holiday, We’ll gather at 4pm and set out on our frisbee golf vision quest from there.

    How (you can join): You will need 1 frisbee, at least between you and your partner. If you have a frisbee and a partner then just show up on Tuesday.

    If you want to join and can’t find a partner, just send me a message or reply to this post with your frisbee golf resume and achievements to potentially attract a partner. If you want to join, but don’t have a frisbee, send me a message or appeal to the forum.

    Why: Because frisbee golf rules, and my extended circle of friends could never manage an actual game of ultimate frisbee

    The Leg and Whistle Pub has generously offered to sponsor the event, and we will head there after the competition is over for beers, awards, toasts, roasts, and tomfoolery of a general nature.

    Some notes:

    – A good attitude is expected. The event organizer will be firm, but fair, and enforce the rules equally to all competitors.

    – Skill level doesn’t matter, the point of the event is to have fun with a pinch of competitive integrity.

    – Dress code: colorful with a hint of trashiness

    – BYOB, but there will be short breaks to restock on supplies after the 3rd and 6th holes.

    Looking forward to seeing everyone out there on Tuesday, the weather forecast is clear and sunny with a 100% chance of frisbee excitement

    Is there a lot of structure to frisbee golf? What are the rules? I have never played before.

    I played a little Frisbee Golf years ago in my hometown. Thanks to the numerous parks and playing fields the town played host to both Frisbee Golf and Frisbee Football leagues each summer.

    If I’m in Chengdu I might be up for this.

    That level of enthusiasm is just about right for disc golf

    Actually Brendan I’d say the event was somewhere between wildly and uber successful. Probably edging out the party on Monday night in the fun category by just a hair. The competition was fierce and throws increasingly accurate as the pressure mounted. It wasn’t the kind of affair that wallflowers sitting in the corner at parties could thrive in (slam!). Maybe hit the weights a tad more and you’ll have what it takes for your next event.

    Thanks to everyone who did come out and The Leg for sponsoring, I was very impressed by all competititors with special acclaim for Eli and Freddy.

    @Vincent, got some pics of the madness?
