“More than 80000 fans showed up to see the Lightnings' 50th game anniversary, which promised to be a feast of touchdowns and marvelous displays of agility and skill. Well, they were to be very disappointed.

Instead, both of the Lightnings' two nigglers niggled out and on top of that the fiendish Marauders somehow managed to tie together the shoelaces of every one of our players, resulting in them running, dodging, leaping and handling the ball like blind dwarves. Around halftime half of the remaining Lightnings went on strike and stubbornly sat in the KO box for the rest of the game, refusing to take part in any more of the humiliation. I can't say I blame them...

At least no-one was seriously hurt, and with enough cash to hire another line-elf as well as Windsoarer finally learning to Strip Ball, the road towards the 100th game anniversary looks a lot brighter than this game.”
