Alabama Rugby

Yesterday I went to the rec fields at Alabama University where they were having a Rugby tournament. This was my first live experience watching rugby. It was intense to say the least. Imagine a bunch of huge guys running full speed into someone else without pads or helmets on. I will call these guys "mans men." During the game there were several injuries, blood, and sweat spilled on the field. The game calls for grace, strategy, planning, quickness, and raw force. I am planning on learning some of the rules so I better understand what I am watching - hopefully you get a glimpse of the rugby experience here through the images.
