NERDS VS SPORTS

Every year the two elite universities compete in a Boat Race. The theme is bbq and drinks by the river Thames. It starts from Putney Bridge and ends I don't know (didn't really pay attention). A couple of thousand people gather by the river bank to watch two groups of good looking nerds show off their athletic strength. But hey, it's traditional.
There is couple of bars and tents set up, serving pimms, wine and beer. The day is only fun if you are in a large group. So we get a whole bunch of my friends, grab our drink and head to the bridge. Imagine, thousands of people having hundreds of small parties. All we need to do  now is have our own, listen to someone else's music and argue over who you think will win.
If you feel like it, place your bets. Once the race starts, the atmosphere lightens up, the large screens zoom in on the might of the burley men doing their thing. The entire crowd routes and shouts, supporting their team. It all over fairly quickly, not everyone knows who even won, but who cares. What else are you going to do on a Saturday afternoon.
After that the crowd disperses and everyone hits a bar. So if you want to take part in a long standing tradition and feel like a true Brit, it's a different way to start a Saturday party at least once a year.
P.S. Last year Oxford won and they looked happy about it.
