Can anyone buy tickets to this event? I know they're crazy expensive, but can't figure out if you're able to buy tickets just like a regular competition. The only thing I see on the website is a spectator package, which looks like paperwork you have to fill out and packages that you have to...
LOL I just looked at it from the app and yep definitely a special olympics video. Soooo strange - it's supposed to be/is on a regular computer the video that CU tweeted.
So true. It has become huge in the area I went to middle school/high school in. Too many people I know/knew are or have at some point been addicted to it. It's unfortunately cheap and easily attainable. It's so painful to see. Like you said - good people from a good families.
I blanked once too at spirit sports in myrtle beach. Luckily I wasn't in the middle of running tumbling though. It was right when the music started, and I just stood there for the first 8 count of the routine while everyone did choreography around me.
In the video there are also much smaller boys with better tumbling technique. There was even a girl who was getting spotted on her full. It's clear that everyone has different strengths and weaknesses and is put on a team because they can make the team better in some way.
I think the information about the OP's daughter being on Twinkles just came from previous threads and posts. She never said it here though, you're right.
