All You Need Is One Hand and a Dream
We love any activity that blurs the line between sport and a genuine freak show. Take a thousand people, most of them in costume, many covered in tattoos and maybe even some in diapers (it's a family event) then dump the whole beautiful mess in California wine country this Saturday, June 7, and you have the 6th Annual Roshambo Winery Rock, Paper, Scissors Championship.
With a $1,600 purse on the line this year, people come from all over the world to compete in Sonoma County's premier sporting event. While the idea of strategy may seem silly, die hard RPS enthusiasts swear by psyching out the competition whether that means trash talking before the first of three throws or wearing a distracting man-baby costume.
The event takes place outside of the new Roshambo Winery tasting room located at Cornerstone Place, a landscape architecture center just 45 minutes north of San Francisco. It costs $20 to compete and it's just $10 to hang out, booze it up with the cats from Roshambo and take pictures to bulk up the quirk-factor of your Facebook page.
