Ahhh, this is classic. At a fundraiser for the Fairfield U. Rugby Club, sponsored by FOFR (Friends of Fairfield Rugby) which I attended along with 60-70 other rugby alumni on Friday, February 6th – two weeks ago.
Here’s a shot of the NY Public Library which I took on a whim walking to Blaggard’s Pub on 8 W. 38 St. where the party was. None of these pictures are great, since I used my android phone without the flash. But you’ll get the “picture”.
There was a wee bit of drinking, eating, and more drinking and then a quick update from Mark and Ben, the current coaches, on the excellent state of the club.
Then an IMPROMPTU FUNDRAISER is organized, as our boy Tom shows his talent at upside down beer drinking!!
GO TOM GO!!
He nails it! 10 out of ten!
Our boy Tom –
And it gets better, as Tom’s wife Mary Lou decides to make it mixed doubles!!
Tom tells me three out of his four children can do this. No word on the grandchildren.

YES – the thrill of victory.
And none the worse for wear.
It may be awhile before this gets topped. Probably the next get-together.
