Seattle Quake Rugby is hosting “Magnitude 15.11″ the big, annual North American Gay Rugby tournament that weekend with hordes of burly, masculine athletes with thighs of steel descending upon the Emerald City. Fans of Rugby, (and thighs of steel) are trembling in anticipation for the four day long event which begins Friday, May 27 with the opening reception followed by two days of intense scrums and the big wrap up on Monday, May 30.
But, the REALLY big news, is that rugby legend, international heart throb, and amazing LGBTQ ally Ben Cohen will be in Seattle for the tournament as part of his 2011 United States tour to help promote anti-homophobia in the sporting world in collaboration with GLSEN, (Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network) as well as promoting youth rubgy with the Washington State Youth Rugby Association.
