Forensics And Football

First speech/debate tournament of the new year today! I did ok, 3rd in Dramatic Interp. That's it, my only award for today was placing in interp. You fellow debate nerds are now fully aware of what kind of day it's been.

I mean, I always do well in DI because I'm good at acting and I have this way of making judges cry at the tragicness of my 10 minute sob story. It's something I enjoy, but definitely not something that builds any useful skills.

I didn't even do debate today. I did Foreign (International for you east coast kids) Extemp. I kinda sucked today, wasn't really feeling it, and I kept getting shittastic questions. EHH. It's not an event I care too particularly much about. I wish I would have done Congress instead. I really miss actual debate because speech is getting really boring.

Anyway, at one point, right after finals were all done and we were just waiting for awards, some kids were like "Hey, come Tebowing with us!" So a few friends and I accompanied them.

For those of you that don't know, Tebowing is like planking, owling, or ragdolling; you strike the stupid pose and then you photograph it. It's memerific. Anyway, Tebowing is when you make the pose that Denver Broncos QB Tim Tebow makes every time he scores a touchdown:

Behold, the Tebow.

So we went across the street from the high school where the tournament was and ran through a super market and stopped in the middle in a along line and Tebowed like champs for an awkward minute or two.

Then we left, and were about to go back to the high school when we realized that next door to the market was a huge commercial sports bar. It struck us then that at that very moment, it was the kick-off for a Broncos playoff game. It was destiny.

We paraded in yelling "What time is it?! TEBOW TIME!!" then we Tebowed for the whole bar to see. The response? A standing ovation. Hell yeah.

Then we went back to the school for awards.

I don't even like football that much, but being from Colorado, I am proud that the Tebow is a home grown thing. I don't like Tim Tebow all that much either, but I'll gladly accept props for coming from the home of the meme.

SO yeah.
How was your day?
