The Winning Catch

Last weekend I went to California with some friends from High School. We went to the US Open of Surf, Coastal Carnage (skateboarding and BMX competitions), and a Weezer concert on the beach for free! It was totally awesome. While at the Weezer concert people were throwing water bottles across the crowd, as they usually do. This is not one of my favorite aspects of a concert, but whatever. As I was rocking out, I noticed a Gatorade bottle hurling towards my head. Here's where it gets intense:

I raised my hand in the air to catch it.
It spins around so that it Gatorade splashes in my face
I am forced to close my eyes.
My hand closed around the bottle, right-side up.

People cheered for me and I raised the bottle up victoriously and the crowd went wild. I'm surprised the camera man didn't get it on tape. But luckily I had my friend, Brian, take this picture with me and the infamous Gatorade bottle.
