@Doogles home course on Lake Natoma lost the regatta because the dam operators are shit as fuck and created unfair currents.
@haie you can put on your Boyz in da' Boat tee and drive down to shit talk Ducktards if you want.

Apparently Australia is invited and will attend the Windermere cup in 2023, pretty cool.

Best UW rowboat story i heard [could be urban legend but i bet its true] is that for one of the WCup events the Egyptian team showed up and when the Blue Angels flew overhead in the great tradition, the Egyptian team panicked and dove into the water to avoid getting rubbed out much to the roaring delight of the crowd on hand. Wasn’t there so can’t confirm but i do love the story even if its bullshit.

I was there. I don't recall the Blue Angels, so am not sure if this is BS or not. One of my buddies though had to row in the Egyptian 8 that day as they are down a man for some reason.TheRoarOfTheCrowd said:Best UW rowboat story i heard [could be urban legend but i bet its true] is that for one of the WCup events the Egyptian team showed up and when the Blue Angels flew overhead in the great tradition, the Egyptian team panicked and dove into the water to avoid getting rubbed out much to the roaring delight of the crowd on hand.

UW Crew has a long history of racing the @PurpleBaze 's. Dick Ericksen used to take a crew over for a Regatta outside of Cairo back in the 70s.

In other news, the Boys in the Boat movie is due to be released later this year from what I can gather.
It will likely be meh, but the free pub will be off the charts.
I will wear my letterman's jacket to the movie theater and sign autographs for the MILFs of White Wakanda.

People forget how big UW crew was
Second only to football
And yes that means bigger than basketball -
I won't say UW Crew was bigger than football pre WWII, but it was a closer 2nd than many people realize. 80,000 people used to line the shores of Lake WA back in the 20s and 30s to watch the Dour Dane battle Uncle Ky.RaceBannon said:People forget how big UW crew was

Alas, times change and the rowboat lost its pull as a major spectator sport. It remains, however, UW's most important non revenue sports, and it's not really that close.
