2017 Recap – Year 10 BBQ (Event 1 of 2)

2017 is off to a Great Start!

As always, what a beautiful group of SUMMER Pub Leaguers!
And look at banner, Michael. Professional!


An enthusiastic group of 20 Pub Leaguers came out for the first event of 2017, our 36th (!) Pub Night – and our first Poolside Summer BBQ. Congrats to Jeff B on his second Pub Night victory, his first since February 2009! Jeff slammed his way to the top, also claiming the Trivia prize along the way. His 5 Answers Correct was just the ticket on a night offering particularly difficult questions, that saw many achieving a trivia score of just 1.

After years of trying, and a few dances in the final round, Jeff B finally puts a second Pub Night victory under his belt! Does he have what it takes to build on this lead & win The Cup? Would you mess with a beard like that?


‘All you have to do is supply the land, Dear Leader said’.
‘You won’t have to do anything, Dear Leader said’.

Very Special Thanks to the Withams for hosting this year’s BBQ,
even if the Landowner spent much of the day stuck behind the grill.
With Casey W & his bodyguard Kevin W. And someone offering cheese.


Jana E, Richard M, Jessica W & Jacob M hang out at the recycle bin, chatting about recycling The Earth.

 


Dan W plants drugs and/or evidence in Witham’s backyard.


 

Tara M and Chris N study their performance.
Note the lack of jokes about bags and/or corn-holing, as Dear Leader is now mature.


 

Happy Pub Leaguers Robbie L, Jessica T, and former Champion Kevin W.
Cornhole. Bags. Hee-hee


 

Working the ‘Cue. With James M, Jeff B, Casey W, Kevin W. 


 

It should also be noted a record was broken on this warm summer night. James M managed to capture The Teeter Prize – the prize awarded to the person who tries everything and comes in last – for this effort, James received his entry fee back – however, James enters our Record Book by achieving the Lowest Score in Pub League History, posting a 6.

This at last breaks the previous record held by Joe S, whose 7 stood untouched since March 25th, 2011.

James M smiles politely, seconds before turning to beat the living-shit out of Spencer L with a sand-wedge.

 


Your other Co-Host of the Day, Heather W, with Jana E.
Thank you Heather, for providing your land and your sh!tter! My wife sold ours.


Dan W and Dave L enjoying the day.
Nice shirt Dan – as of this writing, 99 days to go until The Last Jedi!


Tara M serenades the BBQ crowd with her rendition of My Heart Will Go On.

 


A wonderful photo of past winners, with Champions Jeff L and Jana E!
Also, Richard M.


Night Winner Jeff B, with Walter N, Dear Leader, and a fantastic split-second photobomb by Tara M.

 


Future Dear Leader Meaghan M studiously studies her Mommy, hard at work doing the math that Dear Leader long ago dumped onto her, so he could go drink and throw stuff.


 

Dan W tickles Corey W’s beard, and he is LOVING it.
Oooh… that’s some good beard tickle.


Marilyn B with Robbie L!  BONUS – Can you spot the Cookie Monster?


Try as she might, Jessica T couldn’t come in last place to claim the prize named in her honour.
Here she’s seen playing Soccer Basketball with Year 3 Champion Dan W.


Caralyn R is bemused by whatever Jeff L said. Or did? That middle finger is either folding back in, or just about to launch at the photographer, teammate, passerby, who knows. Future Generations will study this photograph exhaustively for clues, not unlike the Zapruder film.


 

Jimmy M, Jeff B & Nancy L all recognize how happy 2nd Place Winner Casey W is! A strong finish sets Casey up nicely to achieve great things this season. Can he keep the momentum going to capture The Cup, for the first time since 2011?  We will see.


Elsewhere in the evening, Dear Leader finally won the 50/50 draw! About time I won something from this freakin’ thing. Anyhow – see you soon for our Bowling Event!!! Date TBD, but it’s getting closer… get ready…
