Guess we're not quite done with mewing after all...

Another full week of wackiness out on the water, and we can report that the mewing continues...Let's recap!

Throwing Signs All Over

Guess folks took the "no, throw it up" GIF in last week's Recap literally and went ahead. We even saw a few we couldn't decipher--swipe through to see our faves:

Another Championships Goes Rogue

The great Rogue IRA of 2018 now has some company in the "it's not rowable, let's just go race someplace else" category.

Notre Dame invited the Michigan and Minnesota guys to their place when Indianapolis proved too blustery for the MACRA Championships this weekend.

Way to "get 'er done" there, fellas.

No Caption Needed

Was it Crazy Hair Day at the Regatta...

This seemed like a team effort:

Or Did Folks Get Lost on the Way to the Hair Band Auditions?

We also spotted some rowers rocking some serious locks, and head bands, this week--when's the album drop?

Though maybe this last guy was just trying out to be this week's "not having it" guy.

Also Clearly Not Having It

And these two:

The Points Counters Giveth...

There's always time to tinker on the start line, right?

And this coxswain was all-in on helping get his shell pointed:

...while we're on the subject: why *do* we call pinching the bow around with one oar "sculling" anyhow?

Sure seems to confuse a lot of folks who show up at the start line with one oar and then are told to "start sculling it around."

Senior Celebrations

Getting to be time to send off the seniors, so break out yer oversized trading cards:

...yer giant heads:

Impressive bucket hat unity in the WSU 2F:

...and the WIRA 2F was the event with the biggest celebration at the end: yeah, 2F!

Not Fans...

of the erg fan, that is.

But don't worry fellas, it is almost all OTW racing from here on out.
