Wild Football - IFL League

Last night, the Petroleum Club hosted a meet-and-greet for our (Anchorage's) football team, called WILD, and they truly are a wild bunch. They appeared for the party and dining at the club around 5:30 p.m. and hastened to the buffet line. Food and drink were complimentary, thanks to our host/corporate sponsors. Only a few of the team are from Anchorage, and they are still in the process of getting it together, but if weight has anything to do with it, they will be winners. Several Samoans are on the team, and they are BIG guys. We also circulated and talked to a few of them. The new coach is Hans Deemer, who originally comes from Palmer Area. For those who don't know, that's a town NE of Anchorage about 40 miles. After the party, the club regularly has a wine-tasting. This consists of sampling and rating four 2-oz. glasses of wine. I especially like to see how our wine Steward can carry 16 wine glasses in one hand. Guess that's why we sent him to wine school.
