Checkers

My computer beat me at checkers, but I sure beat it at kickboxing.

When I was in fifth grade, my best friend Joel Hanson beat me at a checkers tournament in the first round. He didn't get all my checkers, but we were both blocked and neither one of us could move. I didn't know that you lost if that happened. It was my turn and I couldn't make a move, so I lost.

I had to go to the loser's bracket. I made my way back to the finals. I assume I lost because I don't remember winning. The point is that I am super humble because I bet I won and just don't remember it to brag about.
