Over the Line (OTL) Tournament | News 8 Throwback Special

For two weekends in July the Over the Line tournament turns San Diego’s Fiesta Island into party central. Oh, it’s a serious tournament involving a simple game—but it’s what goes on around it—that makes it a huge fiesta! The first tournament was in 1953. It’s known for raunchy team names—most can’t be mentioned in news reports. Let’s travel back in time to 1976 and on up to 2021 to see how the styles have changed—but the party atmosphere—has not. OMBAC Old Mission Beach Athletic Club sponsors the iconic event.
