It all started seven years ago for me, when I was single in college and playing rugby. Every year, New Orleans' (or Nawlins to locals) neighbor city, Baton Rouge had its annual rugby festival. Yearly we would make our pilgrimage to Baton Rouge, which would always include one or two nights in Nawlins. This tournament was always held to coincide with the weekend prior to Fat Tuesday, which is held 41 days prior to Easter Sunday and is the last day of sin prior to the festival of Lent in Catholicism.
7 years later, out of college, in our careers... the gentlemen I call my best men went back into the fray to see why we are all too old to do this... and here are the pictures. |
