Frisbee Boys Still Out There in the Rain, Playing Frisbee

It was a dark and stormy night on Landis Green. The wind was howling something fierce and the rain crashed down on the Chick-Fil-A umbrella tables. Freshmen hurried to their dorms, disgruntled parents swore to report this to admissions and some sad people just kind of kept walking in their hoodies. Much of the campus was headed inside to stay dry, but not the boys. The boys had to play Frisbee in rain or shine. The intense, ever-hungry sport of Frisbee demanded only the strongest of wills and only Toby and his brothers were the men for the job.

“It is the secret to our fortune. Every minute we throw a frisbee around, a mysterious benefactor drops one grand in our bank accounts,” explained Toby Topher as he made the raddest push pass of the day. “We have tried other sports and other physical activity but the benefactor never pays us for anything else. Someone suggested we test the water with a frisbee-adjacent sport like horseshoes. That was fun until one of us took down a pledge and we had to do another presentation on risk-management. The sponsor was thrilled it was not about alcohol for once in Grande Trenta Venti’s career. We never got the money but one of the lads got an anonymous email that just had the word “nice” in it when we checked that dumb kid into the hospital. We had to walk around for like a week with this dork and his big ‘U’ shaped welt.”

“I feel like there is a larger, clearer message about us playing frisbee in the rain and getting people hurt. What is that message? Probably something but for now we’re gonna see if lightning can hit the frisbee in the air,” wondered Trent Tapioca as he threw two frisbees at once just so he would look cool. “It’s really nice of Florida State to send announcements about when there’s tornadoes and heavy rain and e-boys with pellet guns. We are able to better coordinate when the fraternity should head out and play in the rain. It does get a bit annoying when they send like seven messages to explain that it still is, in fact, raining but I guess it could be worse. There could still be safety concerns that go unreported and problems perpetuated by the Greek life culture at this school. Wait…”

After three different pledges getting struck by lightning and a few more hours out in the rain, Toby and Trent managed to get lightning to strike a frisbee and received more money from the frisbee patron. In this crazy world, there’s only one thing we can count on being a constant: the frisbee boys being out there in the rain, playing frisbee.
