Indy Brawlers, Indianapolis Wheelchair Rugby Strut their Stuff
The Indy Brawlers, an Indianapoils based wheelchair rugby team, were present at Miami’s Heartland First Annual Chili Cook-Off on October 11th, 2008. Not only was the Chili Cook-Off a blast, the rugby team were there to strut their stuff! This team is awesome! After playing for over an hour, everyone had the opportunity to “pay to play”. Needless to say while there were some brave souls willing to get in one of their gladiator style wheelchairs, many were afraid to attempt it!
This sport is certainly not for the fragile and you must be willing to take a hit!
You can view a vide clip of The Indy Brawlers here.
