The story · 1982

The story of Three-Legged Field Day

Coach Pimental ran field day with a whistle, a bullhorn and a clipboard he never looked at. You got tied to your best pal for the three-legged race and fell in the first ten feet. There were water balloon tosses, orange slices in a bucket, and a giant rainbow parachute that everyone ran under screaming.

Fun fact

Participation ribbons were printed in a color called Dandelion, which faded to white after one week on the fridge.
