As I was editing photos for a slideshow, I noticed how competitive the garter toss has become. So in the spirit of football playoffs, here's my take on the tradition.

As in most sports, there are spectators, photographers and beer.

The Players

The QB eyeing an opening

Game Faces

The Throw

The Catch

The Thrill of Victory

The Agony of Defeat

What we're still missing is the announcer saying things like "What they'll probably wanna do here is use their hands to make that catch." And for those guys out there who didn't get the garter, there's always the next game, er wedding. Play ball!
