Cardboard Tube Fighting League

The Cardboard Tube Fighting League, despite appearances and adult-like anticipations, is a highly disciplined, well, maybe not highly, but at least somewhat disciplined play fight.

I exemplify by citing the admirably explicated rules:

1. First Rule of CTFL: Don’t break your tube. In a duel, the last person with an unbroken tube is declared the winner. In the event that both participants break their tubes at the same time, the game is a draw, and both duelists are considered losers.
2. No stabbing. Lunges involving tubes are never allowed under an circumstances. Participants who exhibit this behavior, will be ejected from the entire event.
3. Try not to work the face. Hitting people in the face is heavily frowned upon and can force your ejection from the event.
4. Once your tube is broken you must stop fighting.
5. To participate you must be using an official CTFL tube, which will be provided at the event, and have signed a release waiver.
6. You may not block your opponents tube with your arms hands or legs.
7. Your tube must always be held near the bottom. Holding your tube in the middle at any time is illegal.
