Eric and the Bay Blade Masters

Erin's picture
Eric went to a Bay Blade Tournement, and pitted his spinning metal top against other kids. He was pretty excited and so was Anna. I missed most of the "event" because Anna was screaming so much. She really wanted to get out of the stroller and walk around. I did not allow that because it would have meant baby godzilla would have been loose to smash and disrupt small metal top compititions. 
Eric had his chance and the competition is structured like this; 
    1. The contestants face off over the "stadium" 
    2. The contestants bow and exchange tops to check for deffects. 
    3. The judge tells them to get ready. 
    4. The cadence is given, Ready Go SHOOT! On shoot the combatants launch their tops into the stadium. 
    5. The last top spinning or left in the stadium wins. 
    6. Best out of 3 is winner of that match. 
    7. Winner advances, looser is out.  

Eric lost in his first competition but we waited around to watch the last of the competition. Eric & Kazuma realy enjoyed it. Anna was yelling the whole time so I guess she had a good time too.
