The Zappos Content Team took advantage of the warming temperatures and kicked off spring with the very first "Content Team Olympics".

Grillmasters Nick and Rico worked their "grill skills" cooking up their famous BBQ treats, while the Content Team Olympics started off with a good ‘ol fashion sack race, followed by a heated game of Pictionary.

There was also a horseshoe toss competition, which proved a lot harder than it looks. Luckily, there were no horseshoe-related injuries. Then came Nick's game of Ring Toss...which turned out to be physically impossible...but everyone had a great time nonetheless! (Next time, no more ring toss Nick!)

But the most challenging and arguably the funniest of all the day's events was Rico's Crazy Relay Race! Contestants had to weave through cones holding an egg in a spoon...sounds easy enough, right? Well, they also had to eat three crackers and proceed to whistle and spin around a baseball bat five times and then carry the egg back through the course. The results, as one would guess, were hilarious.

The Content Team picnic was definitely a great way to kick off the weekend and build team and family spirit. Food, drinks, good friends, and friendly competition always equal a good time!
