Of CrossFit and Fall Festivals

Something irrevocably changed at fall family events. I remember just a year ago, explaining to friends and strangers what CF was over Halloween parties, fall festivals and Thanksgiving dinners. Mostly to blank stares and curious questions.

Not any more. This weekend I went to two events and almost everyone knew about the sport. Some had a friend in the local box, others remembered seeing a poster, some watched the Crossfit Games while stranded at an airport bar and a few tried it to relive their high school or college sports greatness…

Will we ever come to a point when friends have tailgating parties prior to local throwdowns or your buddies coming over to your house for a Helen or a Fran?
That may be a while…
