Big ups to team L’Oreal for an insane match-up of Circle Rules Football, but in the end the Thrillist machine could not be stopped.  Barely edging out a 6-5 victory (we had it in the bag the whole time) Team Thrillist made history last week, bringing home the bacon, taking the title as NYC Team Saucony Champions and being the most gifted athletes to ever step on a Team Saucony playing field.

After half of the team nearly collapsed from exhaustion after the first 5 minutes–or was it just me?– we built up a 5-2 lead with 4 minutes left in the match. L’Oreal came roaring back, tying the game with 40 seconds left to go, pushing the match into SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME–HOLY F’ING SH*T!!!!

So that was intense and then we scored the winning game, sprayed a bottle of champagne everywhere and then owned L’Oreal in what some would describe as a “pure displauy of dominance”  in flip cup playing, post-game. Pretty typical really of Thrillist’s winning ways, really.

So the question now is this “WHO WILL CHALLENGE THRILLIST FOR SAUCONY WORLD DOMINATION?”

Will it be Chicago? Seattle? San Francisco?

79th and Central Park west, next Tuesday, 7pm. Be there!

And for the other New York teams? Have your “losers” headbands ready for the winter season because you’re going to need them.

Love,

Thrillist
