And then there were flying saucers. Yes, plates being thrown like Frisbees.

And then, the Air Force guy encouraged everyone to make and throw an airplane...

I will be honest and say though, I was mildly amused by the couple that made it all the way to the big screen on the stage, and they seemed to catch Dean and Woodie's attention (in some way, not sure which) too.

Perhaps we ought to have a one-time airplane contest on one of the days, and ban them the rest of the time.

Maybe not the Olympics but still a professional sport.
