The MLK Snow Bowl

It wasn't quite as big as the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, the AllState Sugar Bowl, or the Chick-fil-a Bowl (although, how do you take yourself seriously when you are the playing in the Chik-fil-a Bowl??) ...but this past Monday, a few lucky men in Cambridge participated in the 1st annual MLK Snow Bowl.
Christian Robinson, Lane Morgan, Ben Beasley, Rob Ellis, and Kyle Leingang took a break from studying the law to gather on Cambridge Common for a hardcore game of snow football.
Luckily, the field was coated in a blanket of snow a few feet deep, so the fresh powder made each tackle a little less painful.
After every play the guys were completely covered in snow. Rob would hit the ground and come up with snow sticking to his little goatee, turning it totally white. Cute...like a young, skinny Santa...

Team 3L (Christian and Lane) were pretty fierce competitors.
Team 2L (Rob, Kyle, Ben) huddle-ing up. Kyle played with both sides as all time QB.

This is serious business; Rob, during a water break, is strategizing how to mount Team 2L's comeback.

After about 3 hours, the SnowBowl came to a close. Cambridge Common's field of untouched snow was totally trampled and the guys were all pretty beat...especially Team 2L. :)

Those were great pictures you took. I'm sad Lydia and I didn't make the trek over there to watch the fun.
