The Great Outdoor Beerlympics

The history behind the Great Outdoor Beerlympics is quite simple. It all began a short time ago, when some friends needed some activities for their buddies bachelor party camping trip. The thought of sitting around a campsite with dudes for three days made them cringe. Long gone were the days of college and the all creative and competitive drinking activities. The trip was missing something, something not only to pass the time, but to create memories that would last or be drowned by booze. Their creative juices flowed resulting in a combination of events, All-Skill, Beer-Skill, and All-Beer came forth. Thus the 2009 Great Outdoor Beerlympics was born.
