    Default Senior Olympics Gold Medal Winner

    So, my first year in Senior Olympics Bocce Ball all womens category in Tucson. Our team took Gold. Won 6 straight games. Each match is best 2 out of 3. Four of the 6 games came right down to last thrown ball for winning point. It was stressful but exhilirating!

    I hope there were no political statements or displays made at the medal ceremony! LOL

    I love bocce! We play on the lawn, but just with family.
    Congrats, well done Sassy!

    I wonder if I could show up to the senior Olympics and self identify as a 70 year old woman and destroy in the biathalon.

    If I tried to show up as a woman at ANY event the only thing I would win is "Ugliest Woman".

    Congrats @SassyLady

    That is an interesting thought. They're doing it everywhere else so... why not?
