#cornhuskerclash

Hey again! Today I thought about one of the fun socials we had last weekend. At Kaleo, there are 250 students from different campuses like KU, K-state, Georgia, Clemson, Northwest, Mizzou, Pitt State, and UNMKC. There are about 45 students from Nebraska here! On the weekends, we usually do a fun social, and last week was campus night. So all the Nebraska students and staff got together, and we did a Cornhusker Clash, which is like the Olympic Games that we compete in. We were split into 6 teams, and I was on team Red. Each team got together around 6 and went to dinner. We went to a place called "Cook Out," which is just an American fast-food place. Around 7, we went to an outdoor courts area, which has pickleball courts, sand volleyball, and a big green space. We started by playing "beta ball," which is where you play wiffle ball, but you can only use one hand, and in the other hand, you are holding an energy drink. After you bat, you have to open your energy drink and chug it and run around the bases to home plate. You have to finish the energy drink by the time you get to home plate to earn a run. We got 3rd place in this round, the next round was a bracket style sand volleyball game, we got very competitive (this was my fav game) and again got 3rd place, then finally we did a big water ballon fight, each team had 100 water balloons, and once you got hit twice you were out, and the last team standing won, so you had to be careful to stay alive and also savor your water balloons. We again got 3rd place, so overall we placed 3rd, but it was so fun and brought us closer as a campus!
