Qualified Chuggers for Quarantined Ruggers started as a facebook group for a dozen Rugby friends sending funny videos of each other chugging beer and making jokes. Two weeks later, it is approaching 50,000 members and it has developed into a Worldwide charitable organization highlighting and raising money for Mental Health causes. Never underestimate the Rugby Community. We are joined with the founder James and two of the groups’ board members, Ali and Drew. Keep on Chuggin’.

Maggotfest is a Rugby Tournament and 72 hour party held in beautiful Missoula, Montana by the eccentrically named, Maggots RFC. It is not a bracketed tournament, so there is technically not a final winner, but rather the Champion is awarded by being the funnest and coolest group of weirdos.
