Most people think about an orange moon when they hear harvest moon. Anyone in the Ultimate Frisbee world only thinks of the annual Halloween tournament in at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville. It is THE single biggest party tournament of the Fall season. Aside from it being a party tournament in the spirit of Halloween, the actual games are very competitive. There are 20 college teams attending the tournament, along with 20 college women's teams.
There are two traditions that are vital to this tournament. The first is that every team comes to the field on Saturday in a team costume, and plays in it all day. The SLU team is going as Peter Pan, Rufio, and the lost boys from the movie Hook. The team judged to have the best costume gets awarded a wooden disc trophy. The other tradition is that the team who is judged to have had the best spirit over the weekend, also gets a wooden disc.
Usually the wether is bad, but it should be an all-around good time. Here is the website for the tournament: http://www.fayettevilledisc.org/moon.shtml
