Why your Ice Bowl was the most fun, the weirdest, the hardest-to-play, a strange or exotic format, etc.?
We played "Charlie Golf with Veto Rights"
This is a modified version of a best-shot doubles format we learned many years ago from Hall of Famer Charlie Mead.
In Charlie Golf, the same player's drive cannot be used on three consecutive holes. We added a twist by introducing veto rights—each player receives a set number of vetoes that can be used to cancel any throw.
The number of vetoes each player received was based on various criteria, such as shoe size, first Ice Bowl appearance, being the current Norwegian champion, not being a man, juniors, oldest player, and more.

It was wet!
Very wet—not really raining, but still dripping, damp, and very, very wet!
