In one area of the park, there were millions of those stickers that are weeds, blended into the grass. The Arcadia team would casually move to the outside (no stickers) of the course at that point, while the opponent would always run a straighter line......yes, loved to hear the swear words as they ran through the "briar patch"...... Most also ran barefoot."
