That's another event that was held at the annual second Annual Floorida Man Games, the Weaponized Pool Noodle mud Duel And it's like the joust from American Gladiators if you remember that, but it's in a baby pool and the jousting pools the jousting poles are made of pool noodles and duct tape.

On a technicality, a little bit of beer did spill out onto the I would love to see that right now.

Speaker 1

They did have a couple of new events too at this year's Florida Man Games. The Hurricane Party Prep, grocer Aisle Brawl, Sweep with Anger. It's basically just all fighting and stealing stuff. It's like medieval jousting, but in shopping.

Speaker 2

Carts permits to do any of them.

Speaker 1

Yeah, and if no one that falls, you just fight it out for hurricane supplies and gets the most supplies win.

Speaker 2

I gotta be honest.

Speaker 3

I was born in Florida and right outside of Orlando, and I am really proud of that state right now. I think it's hard for that state to get things together. I think it's hard for them to put stuff together. And they've got millions of people watching them be them.

Speaker 4

And I like that.

Speaker 1

We're talking about the second annual Florida Man Games that happened over the weekend. We're a huge success.

Speaker 2

Water, bomb water. They get a choice like, oh my god, water, it was bong water.

After you smoke a like, you know, I would think it's just the water.
