They may seem an unlikely fusion, but unicycles and football put together are an entertaining sport. Keaton Sandberg tells us how in this Bobcat Update.
Riding a unicycle isn't easy. Neither is playing football. But doing them at the same time is just down right hard, and a little wacky.

San Marcos is home to the one and only Unicycle Football League.The league was started back in 2008 as the brain child of Marcus Gilday, who wanted to make his childhood dream a reality.

Unicycle football is a semi-contact sport played on asphalt, and is much like a hardcore game of backyard football. The contest always starts with a jousting match, after which teams of five face off to see who wins.
SB
There are currently eight teams in the league, and they all compete for a spot in the championship round -- suitably labeled the Stuporbowl.

Friends and family come out to support their favorite teams, dance to some good tunes and simply have a good time enjoying the vibes

Games are always free to attend and are held Sunday afternoons at one o'clock. For Bobcat Update, I'm Keaton Sandberg.
