San Diego Riptide News Release
SAN DIEGO - Players from the San Diego Riptide and the Los Angeles Avengers, participated in a taping of ESPN's newest reality show "I'd Do Anything". The show is scheduled to air Tuesday, October 5th at 7:00pm on ESPN. The Riptide would like to invite the fans to the Beach House Brewery in La Jolla to watch the show, receive 2005 season ticket information, and have a chance to win Riptide merchandise. Drink specials include $2.00 House Pints and $3.00 wells and house wines.
"I'd Do Anything" combines physical and psychological competitions with emotional heart and soul. In each episode, three contestants compete against each other in a series of challenges to win the ultimate sports fantasy for a loved one, be it a round of golf with Tiger Woods or batting practice at Yankee Stadium. It's the new reality series that asks, "How far would you go for your loved one?" and turns a sports stunt into a sports fantasy.
Although details of the shoot are not to be discussed until after the air date, the episode is packed with throws and blows that will make anyone flinch.
