Wrestling tournament. But the smell may kill my appetite.

It's my wrestler's senior year, so that probably gets the priority.

I know the exact time my cheerleader will be dancing at a local school, but the way wrestling works is that he will be wrestling for something between 2 and 18 minutes over the course of two full days at a school 2 counties over.

what if you and your wife each take an event, facetime or google meet each other, and neither of you has to miss the entirety of the event?

I went to my nephew's wrestling tournament last month. He was in the 9yo class, but they had age groups there from like 6 to high school. The entire place smelled like I was inside a teenager's gym bag.

It was the first time I'd ever been to a tournament, and really the first time I'd ever paid attention to wrestling. It was pretty interesting in the end, but was also quite boring since my nephew only wrestled 3 overall matches – for a combined total of about 6 minutes of action – over the course of 3 hours. Plus I had to pay $10 to park, $18 to get in, and then my nephew hosed me out of $10 so he could get some crap-ass nachos.
