Default Potato Sack Race

We used to have parties at the lab. This one had a western theme so everyone had these little scarves around their necks. We were supposed to get into the country western thing and participate in the potato sack race. I don't remember if I won. Believe it or not, it was really competitive but we had a lot of fun. We also had an egg toss, but the sack race was the favorite. There is one guy in the photo...Paul. He had a real hard time because he couldn't quite get his leg in the sack. He kept falling over it. This had to be about 20 years ago. There was a much smaller group at the lab. Everyone knew each other and there was plenty of interaction between the staff.

Nice photo, Phil. A memory I wish I'd been here to see for myself. (And without the photo, I never would've believed that you'd ever gotten sacked!)
