Alliance Jiu Jitsu/Boise showed up to Idaho’s first BJJ tournament last week (Jan, 24th.)  We fielded 26 competitors!  More than any other school at the tournament.  We walked away with the most medals and the Team Trophy!  The tournament was bigger than anyone expected.  It was a real cluster though…  It started late, was unorganized, and just generally chaotic.  The main thing to remember was that BJJ is growing in Idaho!  Also, we were all there for the love of BJJ!!!  Every major team in Idaho was represented.  We walked away victoriuos!  That’s what matters.

On a side note:  I was supposed to have a 10 min Superfight with Nick Diaz…  He no-showed.  That’s all I’ve got to say about that…
