My friend Alex Wells from Seattle recently had a dream about Beach Ultimate and playing at Lei-Out that I thought was worthy of sharing Enjoy:

I had a strange and frightening dream this morning that I feel compelled to share...

I'm at what appears to be a dance party filled with a bunch of ultimate folks, many of whom I know. As I circulate around the room I see most people are wearing jerseys that I don't recognize, many of them the same. Some of my good friends are wearing some incredibly stylish pajamas(tops and bottoms). Wait a second, everyone in PJ's is a fellow member of my team, Darkhorse...or should be at any rate. The pajamas are the latest and greatest in the line of Darkhorse uniforms! I realize that it is January 19th. Everyone here has just returned from Lei-Out! Except Me!!! I FORGOT TO GO TO LEI-OUT!!!!!!!!. I had a plane ticket and everything and I just forgot to go to the airport. I was so furious and distraught that I started pitching a tantrum worthy of a two-year old and tearing up.

At this point I woke up, very disoriented and breathing hard. It took me a few seconds to realize that Lei-Out wasn't for another month and to calm down. Phew. I hope I never have that dream again.

I can't believe I left this weird story from the BULA Blog until now. It is a true story, nothing has been modified.

Two years ago we played we played Beach Ultimate in Meco (Portugal). The weather was unstable. There was a lot of rain around us, but on the beach it was perfect. Enough sun to heat us up and not too much wind. For years we had been joking that each time we play on that beach we are helped by the 'Frisbee Gods' because 95% of the time, 12 months a year, we have good weather to play, irrespective of weather forecast or the weather a few days before.

I decided to take a picture of the sky. After I came home I uploaded the picture to our team's blog. Here is where the weird part starts...

Upon uploading the picture the result was not really the picture I took. What showed up was a grainy picture of a girl with a bathing cap from the 1920's, multiplied several times. But that is not all, a small thumbnail of the actual uploaded picture can be seen in the left top corner.

Weird... Did we capture the Disc Gods on Camera?

(and are we therefore captured on Google Earth?)

Here is the original post

For the last 4 years BULA and Discraft have been offering a tournament directors discounts on discs (plus many other goodies such as free game discs etc...) in return for, amongst other things, a Discraft banner that needs to be displayed at the tournament.

Recently I was at a tournament that enjoyed the sponsorship offer. However, the first night one of the organizers came up to me and told me that they had forgotten the banners at home (which was a few hours drive from the beach). So we talked on what else they could do to keep their part of the deal. After a few drinks a crazy idea came up, and on the last night of the tournament this was the result:

Never a dull moment with Beach Ultimate players! :-)
