Tonight Danny and I went to the University of Gymnastics. Let me tell you... those girls can move! I was so impressed! Unfortunately we missed the first half (which usually is my favorite half to watch) where they do the uneven bars and the vault. It was fun to go with Auntie Anita in years past, who knows everything about how they score gymnastics. It made me realize that it's like rugby in that there are SO many little rules that I have NO idea about (I do vote that gymnastics are cooler to watch than rugby. Nothing against rugby... gymnasts are just so coordinated and amazing!). Danny and I did make a couple of observations though:
1: Swoop should NOT wear a gymnastics leotard. Too weird.
2: Cheerleaders look a little out of place at gymnastic meets.
It's true. Let's be honest. Cheerleaders are great at basketball games and football games. But those gymnasts were on a whole different level then the cheerleaders. They cheer for themselves, and run around doing their own flips. There is no comparison.
So... don't go to the meets to watch the cheerleaders or to be impressed by Swoop. But I definitely recommend that if you've never been to a
meet then you should go check them out!
