Gorgona Forfeits Game Due To Rough Play
As the sunset over the beaches of Gorgona, a small group of its citizens geared up for a basketball game in the town center under the stars. On Friday night the citizens of Gorgona faced off against the National Police in another basketball game sponsored by Vecinos Vigilantes. Donned in bright yellow and black uniforms, the police looked sharp and ready to play. Both teams dribbled and dunked aggressively determined to out play the other and walk away with the bragging rights of victory. What started as a little friendly competition ended in some rough play which the referee called out as a “foul.” Although the score remained close throughout the game, in the end the citizens of Gorgona forfeited the game supposedly because of the rough play with a final score of 27-25. Organized by Vecinos Vigilantes of Gorgona, these games provide a fun way to interact with the community and raise a little money too. Hotdogs, snacks and drinks were sold for a nominal fee, and all proceeds benefit the organization. Anyone that would like to participate in future games can contact Jim Rizik at jwr2001@msn.com
