A Brief History of Fools Fest
The April Fools Fest tournament was founded/started by Eric Knudsen in 1978. The first tournament hosted 16 teams and was held on the Washington Monument grounds (complete with motorcycle cops riding through the games). Since then it has evolved to become one of the premiere tournaments in Ultimate. It is currently the longest consectutive running tournament in Ultimate (30 years and still going strong) and plays host to roughly 1,000 players and spectators each year.
