Intense Kan Jam in Canada
A great moment in my life, though it may seem trivial to some people, was in the summer of two thousand and eleven in Crystal Beach when I slotted it in a game of Kan Jam for the first time. This is an achievement not to be underappreciated or underrated! For anyone who had seen my play Kan Jam previous to that night, would have agreed with me saying that I was terrible. Just awful. My Frisbee throws either hit the cottage or nearby cars rather than going anywhere near the can. My best friend and partner would literally get mad at me because I was so bad. This night, we were playing her father and his friend, who were undefeated, and it was getting intense. They were antagonizing us and trying to get us to choke and lose the game. This must have subconsciously motivated me, because after that, my game significantly improved! I miraculously started to throw the Frisbee where ever my friend wanted it to go. Thanks to my valiant efforts, we were able to come back from a huge deficit and tie the game!!! It was turning into a nail biter. At this point, people had gathered on the sidelines to see how the game would end up. My friend’s brother watched anxiously, and our friends couldn’t believe what they were actually witnessing. Also, my friend’s dad and his friend were beginning to get worried. They also couldn’t believe that we had come back and were about to beat them! That’s when it happened. I let go of the Frisbee and it soared flawlessly through the air to the can. I was expecting it to hit the side, but what it did was even better. It sailed into the slot, and won us the game! I was ecstatic. Not only was it my first slot in Kan Jam ever, but it had won us a very important game, and that’s why such a small achievement is a great moment in my life. And if you learn anything from this blog post, it should be that Kan Jam is taken very seriously in Crystal Beach.
