Cheetah power!

OK, we did it again. We took Connor into a competitive situation and underestimated him. In this case, it was a birthday party at a laser tag place. Connor had never been to laser tag before, so Sarah kind of explained it to him and indicated clearly that it was a competition. I guess Connor got it. There were 14 kids in the party including some older siblings who are teenagers. Connor, playing under the nom-de-guerre "Cheetah" won the entire event. By a lot. I have some statistics to back up my claims of his dominance. He fired 790 beams, tagging other players 80 times, while only being tagged himself 38 times. He seems to have preyed on two other players in particular, getting the unfortunate "Dan" 29 times and crowd favorite "Rainbow Girl" 17 times. Combined the two only tagged him 15 times.

How to explain this performance? One, he is an intense little fellow. Two, as he often points out, bunnies are small, fast and hard to catch.
