The 2008 Crystal Frolics Baggo Tournament was a huge success. This year we doubled the participants and had 32 teams vying to become Baggo Champs.

Thank you the the Fieldhouse Sports Tavern & Grill for providing the awards.

It was a great day for Baggo and I appreciate everyone who participated and watched the event. The team names were creative, and I was impressed with all the teams who had made shirts specifically for the event. Due to the response this year plans are already being put in motion for the tournament in 2009...64 TEAMS???

Congratulations to the Baggo Maniacs for winning the 2008 Crystal Recreation Baggo League Championships! The number 1 seed blew through the tournament finally defeating team We Work Here in the finals. They walked away with Champions T-shirts, a sweet bracket of their accomplishment, and pride.

As for the We Work Here team this marks the 2nd straight year of them being the lovable losers. The Buffalo Bills of the Baggo League will be back to defend their runner-up status in 2009...but maybe one year they will actually win.

Thank you to all the teams who participated in the league this year. We hope you enjoyed yourself. Stay tuned for the 2nd Annual Crystal Frolics Baggo Tournament to be held Saturday July 26th at Becker Park in Crystal.

BAGGO SIGN-UP HAS BEGUN!

2007-11-26T07:03:00.000-08:00

Attention Crystal Recreation Blog readers; Today begins the first day of Baggo sign-ups. For those of you not familiar with baggo, it is traditionally an outdoor game played at family reunions or while tailgating. It is also known as bean bag toss, corn hole, bags, etc. Around here we like to call it BAGGO, (feel free to visit their website http://www.baggo.com/) and during the winter months we move this game indoors.

We are taking the first 16 teams that sign-up. Teams consist of 2-4 players any gender. This 8 week league starts Thursday January 10, and runs through February 28, 2008. Click on the flyer below for more information. Or email me
