The Global Kilimanjaro Bowl, Drake’s historic football game scheduled for May 21 in Tanzania, has taken to the skies.
Paa, the in-flight magazine of African airline Precision Air, published a five-page preview of the Kili Bowl in its issue released today. View a .pdf version of the article.
Because the collegiate game of American-style football will be the first ever played on African soil, Paa’s article includes a set of instructions for American football. The magazine also interviews several Drake officials and Bulldog athletes. The Drake Bulldogs are set to play the CONADEIP All-Stars, a Mexican team, in the city of Arusha, Tanzania, before completing five days of service projects and climbing to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro.
Precision Air, which bills itself as the “leading airline in Tanzania,” flies to seven destinations in the country as well as Zanzibar, Nairobi and other African destinations.
