I'm surprised I haven't seen this here before (but then I'm also surprised by the number of people that don't have true enthusiasm for ABBA as well). :p

Forget the running part - 4 beers in 4 minutes! Must be some powerful belching going on afterwards. Reminds me of one of Paul's special bean and potato dinners. :D

PSS. How to generate a climbing loop through control of the casting stroke is left as a (considerable) exercise to the reader.

I used to play social football matches, the proper one with a round ball, with similar rules. Even on those days it was only old people that listened to Abba. Vomiting during the game was optional for both the football and Abba

I think this could be adapted to fly casting - beer to start, the caster must then complete 100 metres of casts with a beer imbibed after every cast. All to the tune of dancing queen.

Dancing to Dancing Queen while drinking beer and casting is an idea with legs. You could do it in a line and synchronised at the Scottish meet

One year at the FFF conclave we had the Danish Games with beer. It was quite an event!!
It's an exploration; bring a flyrod.

We could all add Paul's ballet thing to the end of our distance cast... :laugh:

I know. I can never remember if it's left foot forward or right foot forward or if it actually matters. Imagine what it would be like after half a dozen beers or so. Come to think of it last time we were together it was after a few road pops and a few other noxious potions as well. I'm sure our synchronized casting was dazzling. :D
