Playing a summer game of kickball wearing just a jockstrap makes a lot of practical sense. Frees up your range of motion, gets some nice ventilation going down there, and you protect the jewels at the same time. The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence and Seattle Quake Rugby faced off at Cal Anderson park on Saturday for a rousing game of kickball—the catch being that a $5 donation for the Sisters and Quake Rugby earned you the right to up the ante a little by pulling players out, putting players in, or… getting them to take their shorts off and play in a jockstrap.
At least one player found themselves shorts-less, becoming a case study in effective incentive based-fundraising while simultaneously earning MVP status. Those Sisters know how to put an event together.
In the WKL we call this ‘Thursday’
Well now …. I was there, the mood was excellent, funny stuff, perfect weather.
After the money from the crowd paid for some shirts off … and … yes pants/shorts off down to the jock …well after …
Team mates/field mates repeatedly yelled …”QUIT BENDING OVER” …. more humor for those of us very tuned to the scene.
Good job Sisters, photo op. a minute.
