Fat Kids Be Damned: The World’s Largest Dodgeball Game And The Best Of Devin Graham

Written by Ashley Burns / 09.23.11

One week ago today, director Devin Graham and his friends set out with one goal – they wanted to host the largest dodgeball game in the history of the world. 3,975 people and 750 balls later, their goal was not only accomplished, but thanks to that fateful evening at Thanksgiving Point in Utah, they created one hell of a video as well. And it also bears pointing out that 3,975 is just the number of people who signed waivers. Graham claims that many more people arrived at the field, jumping fences just to get in on the action. Oh Mexicans, how they love dodgeball.

But pointless stereotypes aside, Graham’s dodgeball game is just the tip of an incredible video iceberg. Over at his blog, “Adventures of Devin and other short stories,” Graham uses his talents as a director and video editor to deliver some awesome athletic feats.

But this is totally unacceptable.

This is Fred Davis and Chris Cooley of the Washington Redskins cheating in a tricycle race, and I am outraged. WHAT KIND OF EXAMPLE ARE YOU SETTING FOR YOUNG PEOPLE?! Look at the holding, the refusal to pedal, and the interracial gay innuendo. And maybe I’m just a tricycle race purist at heart, but I’m not going to stand for this.

But then again, this will probably be the only contest the Redskins win all year. That is, if one of them actually won. The finish looked like a dead heat to me. THEY DON’T EVEN HAVE A CAMERA ON THE FINISH LINE! WHAT KIND OF OPERATION ARE YOU RUNNING OVER THERE, LEONSIS! I’m calling the bottom!
