Did anybody witness this event?

The grapevine tells me that Son of Bostondevil won said event. Reports?

If this was at halftime, the two boys easily beat the two girls competing, but I didn't hear the names. Honestly, the contest was poorly conceived with boys/men competing against girls/women in a throw and catch contest. Should have been coed teams to make the event more competitive. Not being sexist, but the girls struggled to complete one 5 yard pass while the boys completed 3 or 4 10+ yarders to gain the 50 yards and win.

Spoke with Son of BD and he said it wasn't a big deal. The prize was some Bojangles coupons but both teams got them.

Son of BD and Son of BD contest partner put on a better passing display than Anthony Boone. They threw for 50 yards to Boone's 33.
