Forget Ultra for a minute, because there's another huge event beginning in Miami today that offers far greater pleasures for those of us into sports.
Sony Open Tennis matches start today, March 18, at 10 a.m. and continue through Sunday, March 31. Like Ultra, the tournament can be exhausting -- especially for attendees during the first week of matches when they're running from court to court as multiple matches are played simultaneously.
Buddy Fruits, the official healthful fruit snack of the Sony Open, is giving away 100 percent all-fruit snacks, smoothies, and bites at Crandon Park Tennis Center.
Look for the company's booth at the entrance. The smoothies and drinks come in handy pouches, and the bites and chips are made from 100 percent fruit with no preservatives, colorings, or artificial flavorings. Plus, they're handier than carrying around a bag of fruit at the event (a banana in your pocket is always awkward) -- and more healthful than grabbing a hot dog.
