This was the thirteenth year in a row for the year end Btln "Last Night"/ Grad party! 53 guys showed up for the "Last Night" of 2018! We started the night with the Btln favourite, Murderball! Last year we played four games and the year before we played five. This year we only managed to fit in three games because the games were longer and more competitive. This year my team lost the first game, but came back to win the final two games to win the series 2-1!
After Murderball it was time to eat the nine foot party sub from Subway! It is amazing how fast all that food can disappear! In a little more than ten minutes the entire sub was gone! Last year I forgot the cookies in the bus, this year we handed them out with the sub.
Next we had the Btln Grad ceremony. This year we set a record for the most Grads at a Btln Last Night! There were fourteen Grads for 2018! Our previous record was eight Grads back in 2014. There were so many Grads that I was not prepared for them all! I had twelve Bibles and fourteen Grads! The Grads received their Bibles and a dog tag. It is always a privilege to give the Grads their Bibles! We also gave them a piece of paper with the English translation of the Hebrew writing that is on the back of our shirts! Keeping with Btln tradition, the Grads ate the piece of paper after reading the translation.
We took the group picture and then it was time for Bulldog! There isn't anything quit like Bulldog on "Last Night". So many guys and so much extra energy! Keegan was our final Helmet winner of the 2017/18 Btln Season! Congrats Keegan!
For the second year in a row Jakob Boschmann is the Winston Champion! Jakob is the second two time Winston Champion! (Drew Brown was the Winston Champion in 2008 and 2009) Congrats Jakob! You are a worthy Champion!
After closing the year with the Brigade Watchword the grade 11's and 12's went to the Station for the After Party! This year we had 31 guys at the After Party! The energy in the room was awesome! It was so good to see all the guys having such an amazing time!
During the After Party the Grads received their Btln Medallion. It is so much fun to watch the guys pick out their Medallion. Welcome to the world of gentlemen, gentlemen.
Thanks to all of the Alumni that came out to "Last Night"!
Special thanks to the leaders that helped out all year long!
