Remembering when "Dink" stole the limelight. We were not pleased.

Back in the day...
Freestyle was fun to watch. Guts was a little crazy.
Ultimate was the real game.


If I remember correctly (it's fuzzy) Santa Barbara defeated Rutgers in the final. We (Boston) didn't cut the mustard that year. Boston (without me), then called the Boston Rude Boys, later went on to win several World Ultimate Championships.
We were disappointed that the network news coverage made it look like the most interesting thing was the dogs. For years, we struggled to win legitimacy for Ultimate and the network made "Dink" the winner.
