If you are looking for your favorite ESPNU programs today and come across dart tournaments, dodge ball tournaments, and other “alternative” programming, don’t be surprised! “ESPN8: The Ocho” has taken over regularly scheduled programming for today, August 8 (8/8). “The Ocho” was a fictional network that was showcased in the 2004 cult classic “Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story” featuring Vince Vaughn, Christine Taylor and Ben Stiller.
In the movie, “The Ocho’s” motto was “Bringing you the Finest in Seldom Seen Sports”. That is true for today! I can say I have never watched 2016 Sky Zone Ultimate Trampoline Dodgeball or the 2016 Kabaddi World Cup Final.
Some other events that you can expect to see today are:
- 2017 Championship of Bags: A cornhole tournament for all!
- Firefighters World Challenge XXV: Firefighters from around the globe compete in challenges to show who has the best skills. Some of the challenges include climbing a five-story tower and rescuing a “victim.”
- 2016 Kabaddi World Cup Final: Originally from India, this contact sport puts two teams against each other and introduces a unique rule.
