Bar League... Football??!!!

What a great concept!

The term "bar league softball" is commonly refers to a group of people who are old and out of shape, pretending to once again be athletes while playing the game of slow pitch softball. Don't get me wrong, I do love this concept, and I myself even patron several 'bar league softball' teams. However there is something lacking from the luster of a sporting event that provides only limited amounts of actual activity.

Luckily for me, I was fortunate enough to stumble upon 'Bar League Football.'

Much like bar league softball, bar league football is a group of past their prime individuals who once were athletes trying to relive the glory of their younger days. However this game involves actual physical activity! You are required to run, catch, jump and all those other things that you only have to do on chanced occasions while playing softball. And best thing about it, is that you get to do it every play!

It's kinda like a club sports team in college. You get together with a bunch of friends every week, run around for a while, and then after the game (sometimes during the games) you have a few drinks with the people you're playing against. Stress levels are low, and fun levels are high... and better yet, you may actually even get a good workout from it!

If you're in the Buffalo, NY area and looking for a fun coed league to join for some laid back football on the weekends, I highly recommend M/ile Sports.

They're good people and do a good job of keeping things loose and fun.
