After shuffling his way through a tire obstacle, a member of Team Travis has to complete 10 pushups before moving on in the obstacle course. Dining-in participants who broke the rules of engagement were forced to finish the course while being attacked by the rest of the mess armed with water guns and balloons.

Upon completion of the obstacle course, members of the mess must salute the president of the mess, Chief Master Sgt Michael Williams, 60th Air Mobility Wing command chief, before drinking out of the grog bowl. The grog is a concoction made up of donated items from squadrons around base. (U.S. Air Force photo/Senior Airman Shaun Emery)
