Join Steve “Desi” DesJardins of the Queen City Flyers and Dennis “Wally” Walikainen the curator of the International Frisbee/USA Guts Hall of Fame in Calumet.
Hear the stories of the beginning of Guts Frisbee in the Keweenaw in the 1950s and Marquette’s entry into the sport in the 1970s. These two legends will share their first hand accounts.
Guts Frisbee is the original U.P. extreme sport. This fast action Frisbee sport is intense and highly entertaining. Teams throw and catch flying discs at 85 mph and battle throughout the weekend with the goal of winning the Buck Buchanan Memorial Guts Frisbee National Championship trophy.
