An International Display of "Awesome." Red Bull Open Ice Celebrates 2nd Year.

Want one guy's take?

My favorite part of the whole weekend had to have been the Fins. Literally all business. I don't think I saw these guys smile all weekend. So sick that Red Bull flew these swift dangling Scandinavians all the way to the US to play pond hockey...seriously nasty! Click here.

Holy Smokes...what a gnarly event Saturday. 32 teams full of the best beauties in the business all competing for that lovely Golden Glove Trophy. Pretty much the Stanley Cup of pond hockey.

Team SAUCE Hockey laced 'em up today for the first time...however we got slayed by the 4 Iowans and 1 Minnesotan. Simply wasn't enough SAUCE for us to prevail over the men of the pond. What an experience it was being able to play in a international pond hockey tournament. For that, my sickest thanks goes out to Red Bull.

This weekend was nothing more than strategy. Literally, it did not matter where you played prior to the RBOI Final. As long as you had a solid strategy and wanted to get your drink on later, you were solid as rock.

Red Bull really throws an event. I hate to say it but I never expected this event to be as cool as it was. From Ex NHL'ers to guys that beat the puck into squares. Everyone was having a great time. In hockey, that is all we as players want. To have a good time. That has been the case with the whole RBOI tour this year.

I am extremely honored to have been a part of this whole tour. I have met unreal people, got a solid jag on each event and been able to promote SAUCE Hockey in the mean time. I am already looking forward to giving er next year. My hat goes out to this years winner of the RBOI Wright Homes . They gave it all and took home to chip. Maybe I will see some of your pocket rockets @ Red Bull Flutag event in St. Paul.

Thanks for following RBOI this year and this is Brett Beckfeld, signing off.
