More than 60 students, faculty and staff gathered recently on the Tundra to experience a "Throw Throw Burrito" Extreme Outdoor Tournament. Spectators watched as participants played the outdoor version of the popular game —described as a cross between a card game and dodgeball— and threw 3-foot tall inflatable burritos at one another. The tournament also featured foods from around the world that were provided in accordance with the ONU Safety Plan. (From ONU Facebook)
