Thirty years ago, a pack of teenage friends could see the end coming. They were football jocks, mostly, guys who had bonded as freshmen and sophomores on the gridiron at Corona del Mar High School. When high school ended and they scattered to the winds, they wondered, what would become of those friendships forged?
So they made a pact, 17 of them. They would gather every Thanksgiving for the rest of their lives, wherever they were, to play some football. They persuaded a parent to buy them a bottle of champagne, tore off the label and affixed their pledge. They would play it till their legs gave out, till the last surviving man could pop the cork and toast the other 16.
It sounded nice enough. But there was no good reason to expect it would stick. This Thanksgiving, however, the jocks will celebrate the 30th get-together of what they call the Last Man Society. With few exceptions, for war deployments or personal crises, most have managed to make it every year. And so far, all are still standing. (LA Times Bugmenot)
