Duke women’s rugby team wrestles in chocolate pudding
I was having a beer at the James Joyce in Durham a couple weeks ago and I noticed a stream of Dukies filing into the bar, yet the bar wasn’t getting more crowded. I didn’t realize there was a patio out back, where the Dukies were lining up to see the Duke women’s rugby team wrestle inside a baby pool filled with chocolate pudding. It was a chilly night and these young, strong women were in T-shirts and shorts, coated in chocolatey mess.
I have never participated in any type of wrestling match, but if I did I would definitely prefer chocolate pudding to jello. What would you be willing to wrestle in?

That question raises so many possibilities, few of them publishable, that I wouldn’t touch it with a ten foot pole.

That pudding looks kinda oily to me. Eew.

The Brewery, in Raleigh, hosted the NCSU Women’s Rugby team on three different occasions as they wrestled in Jello. It was always a fun night. And those girls kicked butt!

When I see things like this, the first thing I always wonder is “I wonder how many batches of [food product] they had to make, and how they organized getting all that done.
If Duke had a culinary school or a home-ec program or co-ops that have huge vats for making tofu (like Oberlin does), everything would be easier to imagine. But instead, I just get to imagine how those women got cleaned off, afterward, without freezing to death.

@Phil I know and milk isn’t cheap. I wonder if they made the pudding with water.

Quite unbelievable :D… too many options available… not able to decide what I would like very much….although chocolate is a very yummy idea. These girls are going places now Duke Women’s Rugby Hooded Sweatshirts is on sale.
