The stands are crowded to capacity! Yarn Ball is the big event for Cat Olympics! Indeed, not only are the stands filled to overflowing; security is very tight too. You have no idea how hard it is to keep the fans out of the game. When you’ve got yarn rolling in front of 150,000+ cats, you know the tails and whiskers are twitching!
Alice has gained an early lead, but there’s still a lot of yarn on the ball. This is anybody’s game, and this year’s contenders are fast cats. We’re rooting for Alice, of course, and it looks like she’s got a great shot at the title.
