Being the all-encompassing versatile athletes that they were, the Bruins quickly migrated away from the TV set and the lackluster Super Bowl party that had brought them together towards the ping pong table and - surprise! - had a ping pong tournament haphazardly set up instead. Competitive drive rampaged through Bruin bloodstreams.

      Alyssa Chen rapidly disposed of all opposition, however, in the seven-point ping pong match-ups and despite pretensions of attributing it to "luck" the other Bruins knew it to be true skill. The finals, as expected for any all-Bruin clash, was a tense and exhilarating match-up. Nonetheless, anyone who viewed her ping pong style knew she incorporated her forehand stroke into its forceful and heavily powered velocity; the same could be said for a good number of other Bruin tennis-turned-ping-pong enthusiasts.

      After an exhausting day, though, the Bruins settled down for two hours of taboo before the re-commencement of traditional face-stuffing that watching Super Bowl games entitles. By 7:30 many of the younger children (notably the Freshmen squad) departed for campus while the big kids consumed the remaining pizza, soda, cookies (courtesy of Eric Radke), and chips+dip until 10 PM. A football was also thrown about intermittently, nearly colliding with a snoozing Daniel Cheong while keeping the remainder of the party on their toes.

      It was, overall, an extremely relaxing event that allowed the Bruins to kick back for a brief period before gearing up again for the Championship battles to come.
