Dear Gay Bowl XVI attendees: On behalf of the tournament planning committee and the D.C. Gay Flag Football League (DCGFFL), we welcome you to Gay Bowl XVI! We have been working hard over the last 18 months to host what we hope will be the best Gay Bowl to date. Our goal is to exceed your expectations and ensure you have a fun, safe, and memorable weekend. Whether it’s your first tournament or you are a seasoned player, we want you to enjoy all that Washington, D.C. has to offer – both on and off the field. From the moment you pick up your registration packet at Nellie’s to the glass you raise at the Howard Theater closing party, we have designed the tournament to showcase the best of our nation’s capital and our football family. We have taken the greatest elements of past tournaments and added some innovative ideas that we hope continue to future Gay Bowls. We are grateful for the support, encouragement, and guidance offered by the National Gay Flag Football League (NGFFL), the DCGFFL, our sponsors, and city leaders from around the country. As co-founders of the DCGFFL and having served on the NGFFL Board, we have been involved in the last nine Gay Bowls. We know from personal experience how transformative this weekend can be. From the competition and camaraderie to the acceptance and diversity, Gay Bowl has changed thousands of lives over the years – and we’re honored to get to host it this year. We hope you enjoy yourself, win some games, and get to create a few fun memories throughout the weekend. Please make sure to support our sponsors and thank the members of the planning committee when you see them. With pride and gratitude, CHRIS CORMIER BRANDON WAGGONER Gay Bowl XVI Co-Chairs

AIRPORTS
Washington’s Reagan National Airport (DCA) is most convenient and most accessible to public transportation. Located on the DC Metro Blue and Yellow Lines, the airport is located over the river in Arlington, VA. Washington Dulles International Airport is farther from DC than DCA but for less than $11, you can get to any location on the Metro system by taking the non-stop Silver Line Express Bus from the Airport directly to the Wiehle Avenue Metrorail Station located approximately 7 miles away. Other ground transportation options include shared ride services, taxis and rental cars. Baltimore Washington International Airport is farthest from DC, but you can get there via bus service from the Greenbelt Metro Station at the end of the Green Line. The BWI Express/B30 service runs every 40 minutes from BWI. You can also take a shuttle bus to the Amtrak / MARC train systems that go to Washington Union Station.
TRANSPORTATION
UBER / LYFT These ride-sharing options are often the easiest way to get around DC because they are readily available and can help save time as compared to public transportation. You can download the apps and request a driver. Surge pricing can apply during high-demand periods. DC METRO & BUS DC’s metro system requires you to purchase a ride with fares based on your exact travel route. You can purchase a metro card at each station using cash or card. The metro system requires you to insert your card when you enter and when you leave the station. The Washington Hilton is located four blocks from the Dupont Circle stop on the DC Metro Red Line. The Polo Fields are about a twenty-minute walk from the Smithsonian on the DC Metro Orange Line (also see DC Circulator). For more information on metro and bus routes – including SafeTrack construction on the Orange Line – please visit www.wmata.com. DC CIRCULATOR BUS In addition to the DC metro and bus system, the DC Circulator is a separate bus line and has multiple loops that can be used to get around the District. The Red Circulator route (National Mall Route) drops you right at the fields along West Basin Drive near Independence Avenue SW. Typical hours are 7am-7pm on weekdays and 9am-7pm on weekends.

The DCGFFL comprises 20 teams with 300 players. WASHINGTON BLADE FILE PHOTO BY MICHAEL KEY
By KEVIN MAJOROS
DCGFFL THRIVES WITH COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY, COMPETITION Forged on the dusty fields of Carter Barron is the monolith known as the DC Gay Flag Football League (DCGFFL). It has been seven years since a group of pick-up players and their travel teams hosted Gay Bowl IX on those very same fields. The championship in 2009 was the impetus for the formation of the DCGFFL and it is fitting that they are hosting this year’s event because of the strength of their league. GAY BOWL XVI The championships will take place on 13 fields at West Potomac Park with the National Mall serving as an inspirational backdrop as the players vie for the three championship trophies. More than 750 athletes and referees on 40 teams from 21 cities across the United States and Canada will be welcomed to a world-class sporting event along with a full social calendar that will showcase the LGBT scene of Washington D.C. THE DCGFFL The first season of the DCGFFL in 2010 consisted of seven teams and though interest was high for expansion, the league carefully created a structure of growth that kept the quality of play at a high level. The growth was limited partially by the grooming of quality quarterbacks, but also with a design on having the most balanced teams possible. Now in Season XIII, the DCGFFL is at 20 teams with 300 players. The draft system is an ever-evolving beast that shakes up the teams and helps to prevent dynasties each season. The actual drafting of the teams is also an intense private session filled with team captains and quarterbacks all toting clipboards, laptops and spreadsheets in hopes of finding the right balance for a fun and competitive team. “The draft has definitely evolved over time and we are always looking for new ways to make sure it is fair,” says founding board member and co-chair of Gay Bowl XVI, Chris Cormier. “The most enjoyable seasons happen when there is not a clear winner at the start. Added to that is our playoffs structure, which makes it possible for the lowestrated team to be the eventual champion.” To further encourage players to improve their skills, the DCGFFL runs a rec league concurrently within each season, which allows players to try new positions. In addition, new players are run through mandatory clinics each season to up their skill levels. At this year’s Gay Bowl, D.C. will field five men’s teams and one women’s team. These five squads are the travel teams and they are separate from the league teams. There is a tryout and selection process that follows strict protocols not unlike the league draft system. There is currently a waiting list just to try out for the travel teams. DIVERSITY One thing that stands out in the DCGFFL is its diversity. The league has a ‘come as you are and play your heart out’ mentality that draws in people from all walks of life. “We bring people from diverse parts of D.C. and I think it is the best part of the league,” Cormier says. “We have players that range from the military to Capitol Hill and we have a diverse array of sexual orientations, ethnicities, gender indentities, and athletic abilities.” The league has worked over the years to maintain a high number of female players and is at close to 20 women this season. The DCGFFL does not utilize the special rules that are put in place for women players in some flagfootball leagues. Former NCAA Division I basketball player Nikki Kasparek says that when she started in the league in 2012, the

D.C. will field four men’s teams and one women’s team at Gay Bowl XVI. WASHINGTON BLADE FILE PHOTO BY PETE EXIS
male players weren’t utilizing the female players to their capacity. That has since changed. “They wouldn’t play defense on us and ultimately the quarterbacks starting throwing the ball to us. I was scoring one to two touchdowns per game,” says Kasparek. “I’m not getting that anymore. We are athletes, we are assets and we are rock stars. If you don’t guard us, we will score.” After retiring from basketball due to injuries, Kasparek is loving flag football and will be leading the Washington Senators (named for Sen. Tammy Baldwin) in the Gay Bowl as they try to grab the women’s championship. “We have 22 players for the Gay Bowl and will play against eight other women’s teams,” Kasparek says. “Playing in our hometown means we are really looking to win the title for D.C.” The DCGFFL is also the league of choice for many straight players, including Peter Sima who has been on board since 2010 when it was an informal group of pick-up players. He has also been a part of the travel teams and has played at Chicago’s Pride Bowl. “There is no thought in this league as to what you are,” says Sima. “There is also no ‘in crowd’ and as a straight player I immediately felt welcomed.” Sima continues to play in the league but had to step aside years ago as a captain due to time constraints with work. There are several things he misses about that role. “This may sound nerdy, but I love the draft and I would captain every year if I had the time just to be a part of the draft. The parallels with fantasy football are hard to resist,” Sima says. “The draft makes it so everyone is distributed evenly and it’s a nice cycle where new players can evolve into good players.” The DCGFFL is also supportive of the trans community and one player (who wishes to remain anonymous until he has told his clients) has found support from the league during his transition. He has been a player since 2011. “I have a really awesome core group of friends in the DCGFFL that I trust,” he says. “My friends have been supportive of my journey and that has made me really happy to be a part of this league.” WEEKLY VIDEOS Another popular feature of the DCGFFL is its dynamic website that is updated constantly with news, power rankings and weekly videos courtesy of Sean Bartel who has been a player since the first season in 2010. Bartel was a broadcast journalist for more than eight years and now works in video production. He found himself on a fun team in his first season and decided to make a funny video. The teams loved it and the videos have been produced weekly ever since along with end-of-season videos. “It has become ingrained in everyone that you play your game on Sunday and then look at the website on Monday to see if you made the highlights video,” says Bartel. Going home on Sundays and putting the video together is cathartic for Bartel even though he often hears, “Why wasn’t I in the video,” after they are released. “No sport translates to video like football. The spiral of the ball and the big plays all make for great highlights,” Bartel says. “Doing this makes me better at my job. I try things in these videos that I haven’t tried yet at work.” WELCOME TO D.C. The closing party for Gay Bowl XVI will be held at the Howard Theater and after a weekend of playing in the presence of America’s national monuments, the players will be sent off in D.C. style just a few blocks from the White House. “We want everyone to say it was the most enjoyable and most memorable Gay Bowl yet,” says Cormier. “And, oh yeah, we want all three trophies.” Welcome to D.C.!

Market Lunch in Eastern Market. WASHINGTON BLADE FILE PHOTO BY MICHAEL KEY
By KRISTEN HARTKE
SOME OF OUR FAVORITE RESTAURANTS SERVING QUINTESSENTIALLY D.C. CUISINE If there was ever the right moment to eat in Washington, this is it. Because the local restaurant scene tends to be influenced by the occupants of the White House, the city saw decades of French restaurants, threemartini lunches and even a spike in McDonald’s sales during Bill Clinton’s pre-vegan presidency. The Obamas have frequented dozens of area restaurants over the past eight years and their interest in healthy, local foods has encouraged chefs to embrace mid-Atlantic cuisine with a vengeance, resulting in a restaurant boom that recently led to D.C. being named America’s Best Food City by Bon Appétit magazine. Here’s a sampling of some old and new hotspots across the city worth checking out, in no particular order. OSTERIA MORINI (301 Water St., S.E.): The fact that pastry chef Alex Levin was one of the Washington Blade’s Most Eligible Singles earlier this year is not the only reason to stop in at Osteria Morini. His melt-inyour-mouth confections prove that you should never, ever skip dessert. Before you tuck into artfully designed plates of lemon ricotta cheesecake accompanied by balsamic gelato or zabaione rice pudding, explore the savory ingredients of the Emilia-Romagna region, from ravioli stuffed with truffled ricotta and prosciutto to swordfish with baby fennel. BLUEJACKET (301 Tingey St., S.E.): Just a block away from Osteria Morini, you’ll find at least a dozen beautifully handcrafted beers on draft that are about as local as you can get, since they were all made right inside the building by Bluejacket’s own brewmasters. The restaurant isn’t a sports bar, but does show games on the screens behind the bar for those who want to keep up with the scores. Most patrons are there to sample an ever-rotating selection of saisons, IPAs, stouts, sours and lagers, featuring ingredients like locally grown peaches and ancho chili peppers. Be sure to snack on the addictive lemony pepper-spiked fried chickpeas and housemade tots smothered in spicy frankenbutter. MARKET LUNCH (225 7th St., S.E.): For an authentic taste of D.C., there’s nothing like breakfast at the Market Lunch in historic Eastern Market on Capitol Hill. While lunch is also a must-have — especially crab cakes topped with creamy coleslaw on homemade bread — you’ll find both locals and tourists lining up for their legendary breakfast offerings, especially the fried green tomato Eggs Benedict with Tabasco hollandaise, blueberry buckwheat pancakes and shrimp and grits (ask for the jalapeño cheese grits, you won’t regret it). If you’re there on the weekend, don’t be daunted by the line. And bring cash, as the Market Lunch doesn’t do cards.

THE DABNEY (122 Blagden Alley, N.W.): If the Market Lunch is oldschool D.C. cuisine, chef Jeremiah Langhorne has gone all in for crafting a menu that is almost completely regional with a nod to history, cooking over an open fire with modern twists on classic mid-Atlantic recipes — there’s no fancy gas range dominating this kitchen. You’ll find an emphasis on local proteins from softshell crab and oysters from Maryland’s Eastern Shore to pork belly and quail from the Virginia countryside; look for plenty of pickled fruit, charred vegetables and fresh herbs from the rooftop garden. THE COLUMBIA ROOM (124 Blagden Alley, N.W.): Just next door to the Dabney is one of the city’s best hideaways, the elegant, yet laid-back Columbia Room. Created from the ever-inquisitive mind of celebrated cocktail expert Derek Brown, the Columbia Room space is divided into three sections: the Punch Garden, a wonderfully secluded rooftop bar; the Spirits Library and Bar, with an extensive selection of vintage spirits and variations on classic cocktails; and the Columbia Room, a cozy hidden bar behind the Spirits Library featuring a prix-fixe menu of innovative cocktail and snack pairings, with two seatings a night. The Punch Garden and Spirits Library have open seating, while the Columbia Room prix-fixe experience requires reservations. RESTAURANT NORA (2132 Florida Ave., N.W.): If there’s a badass chef in D.C., then it’s Nora Pouillon, and, yes, she’s a woman. Austrian by birth, chef Nora opened the doors of her eponymous restaurant back in 1979 in D.C.’s famed Dupont Circle neighborhood, bringing fresh seasonal ingredients to the plate and championing organically grown foods while also blazing a trail for female chefs. Restaurant Nora became the first certified organic restaurant in the U.S. in 1999, and it’s a title they take seriously, from the wines all the way to the salt and pepper on the table, so you can feel good about every morsel you eat, whether it’s grilled sustainable salmon or bourbon pecan ice cream. DUKEM (1114 U St., N.W.): D.C. is a truly international community and you’ll find neighborhoods filled with Salvadoran pupuserias, Vietnamese banh mi shops and a whole lot of Ethiopian food. There’s nothing fancy about Dukem in the U Street corridor’s Little Ethiopia neighborhood, but it’s a real slice of the local community, where vegetarians and meat eaters can happily coexist while knocking back a St. George lager. Order up a platter of spiced lentils, collard greens, potatoes and other veggies with injera, the spongy sour pancake-like bread that is used to scoop up the food — no utensils required. Consider the cardamom-spiced kitfo, if you’re a fan of beef tartare. UNION MARKET (1309 5th St., N.E.): Formerly a wholesale market that catered primarily to local restaurants, Union Market now houses some 40 different food and drink vendors, making it a popular destination for breakfast, lunch and dinner. You’ll find Burmese falooda, a parfait of fresh fruit, rose syrup, basil seeds and ice cream made by a former D.C. public school teacher at Toli Moli; scrumptious smoked egg salad sandwiches at Neopol Savory Smokery; and Buffalo & Bergen’s Nutella egg creams spiked with the booze of your choice. Check out Salt & Sundry for fun kitchen and dining goods to take home, like local maple syrup aged in whiskey barrels and an array of fetching table linens, plates and glassware. Editor’s note: This list was compiled by the Washington Blade’s features staff and its food critic.
