Recommended Posts

The CRASS organization is please to announce the KOBE CHALLENGE for season XIII. The Tokyo Tornadoes, competing in thier second season of FDCP-I wanted to mix things up and create an atmosphere of positive rivalry. After many discussions and a call to a coporate sponsor, they would like to announce the KOBE Challenge.

How does my corps win this challenge?

It's simple, beat the Tokyo Tornadoes on your scheduled night.

Each corps has been sceduled a slot depending on when you meet up with the TT along the tour. If you beat the TT, your corps will get to indulge in KOBE Steaks with all the fixings. Give your food staff the night off and have your kids eat some of the most succulent steaks on the planet prepared for you by the chefs of Benihana! The steaks will be shipped in from our supplier in Japan weekly to ensure that they will be the highest of quality. Mark your calendars and prepare for a feast of the season.... if you can beat the Tokyo Tornadoes.

The History Of Kobe Beef:

The Wagyu cattle that produce the highly prized meat were introduced into Japan in the second century as work animals, used in rice cultivation. As beef became more prominent in society, farmers began hiring geishas to massage the animal's backside. The mountainous topography of the islands of Japan resulted in small regions of isolated breeding, yielding herds that developed and maintained qualities in their meat that differ significantly from all other breeds of cattle. Resulting herd isolation and the distinctive feeding techniques put in place because of the limited land availability have led to distinguishing features that make the meat both superior in marbling and in the ratios of unsaturated versus saturated fats. Kobe beef is often considered a delicacy.

Can we get rollover steaks? What happens to the steaks if TT wins? The way I see it, by the time we get our chance to get a nice meal (not that the VK Org. doesn't feed its' corps well) there could be a whole food truck full of steaks to be had. My whole org. could have some, although you would have to cut the memebers of VK³ meat for them. :laughing:

I honestly thought about that.... here were a few ideas the organization kicked around:

- feed it to our own kids...

- invite the other corps staffs over for steak...

- feed the food truck volunteers from other corps...

- only keep on hand two meals worth because how often would the TT be beaten?...
