MBA Games in Halifax

It's been a while since my last post. I was waiting for some pictures from MBA games and then course work kicked in.

The games were good times! The first night was exciting with lots of cheering and excitement. I felt sorry for a wedding reception that was being held in the hotel at the same time...we must have been really loud.

Overall, we weren't that impressive on the sports front. We got hammered in basketball and didn't do so well in dodgeball. We won both our waterpolo games and did well in the outdoor soccer portion. We had a small contingent and there isn't a lot of athletic talent in our class anyways. It was still fun though.

Unfortunately, someone broke the window of our van in the hotel parking lot and stole a laptop. We got a new van rental but had to pay a $500 deductible on the damages. Apparently Nova Scotia's experiencing hard times and there are a lot of similar robberies in Halifax.

Anyways, here are some pictures from the games:











Here's a little clip of the opening ceremonies:

The Dalhousie business school did a great job organizing it. With 13 different schools and a couple hundred mba students (organizing them is like herding cats) it couldn't have been easy but they pulled it off.
