Bar Buzz: Week 2, Spring 2012

Brian Yohn reminds us...
only real heros win the Bar Buzz Belt

Well, well, well. Looks like we've got ourselves a party! Last week the rain couldn't stop us.. and THIS week we withstood sub-zero temperatures {no, not literally. BUT this IS Southern VA, the weather in April should never drop below 55 and when it does, we reserve every right to complain about it. Sort of like when shotty drivers from other states clog up our roadways.} and late night games. [come on Brent, some of us are teaacheerrssss we have to get up earrlllyyyyyy]. This is just the showing I'd expect from heavy hitters like each of you and we here at the Bar Buzz couldn't be more proud. Now, let's get on with it before your egos get bigger (is that even possible??) ...
15. Just For Kicks & Just Kickin'-It

14. New Kickheads on the Block
13. Peanut Butter Jelly
12. Chicken Tetrazinni
11. Chubby Gangsters - Even though they didn't make it to the top 10 write up, I promised Keith Morehart that I'd call out his teacher teammates, who (with the exception of Emily Cook) left the bar just 15 minutes before the acclaimed AMP {that's After Midnight Photo, folks} occurred. Let me ask you, was the extra 15 minutes of beauty sleep worth it?

10. Rumspringa - After last week, the Springa's were set to take the stage in full force in our 2nd Week. However, the actual outcome was more disappointing than losing your virginity on prom night. We'll let them slide this one time and chalk it up to an unexpected 9:30 start time plus a double header and reffing duties. 

9. 5 O'Clockers - It seems the Clockers were too busy taking pictures of Philip Baltzis' new 'do to actually compete this week. Better luck next time?

Phil with hair!

8. Jagernauts - It's not that this wasn't a good showing for the 'Nauts but rather, that they will have to step up their game to keep up with the newbies and sophomore teams falling in around them. Still, I think it's only a matter of time before those kids in Urple make their move. 

7. Kick Ass - "We just want to get into the top 10" & "Who's the guy that writes this bar buzz thing anyway". Well, they may want to work on their research and/or read the blog a little more thoroughly, but you gotta give them some credit as Week 2 saw KA on a kick ass campaigning mission. Never before making it into the top 10, KA can finally say they've at least conquered one goal (in addition to conquering a stuffed dog on the dance floor. Now how many teams can say that??). Will this be the momentum they need to take them to the top?

6. Foul Balls - Who's balls??? Well at least this week we could actually spot our Kelly Green friends. Okay, so maybe that's not totally fair... but this week we were certainly reuinited with the partying Foulies we once knew and loved. Will this be a turn around for our friends in foul territory? Stay tuned!

4. Moose Knuckles &  Free Ballin - MK got the party started on the dance floor, while FB got us going on the flip cup tables. These two teams are turning out to be consistent party people. Can they do what it takes to take the party to the next level and finally outshine the other?

The Knuckles Bringing the Party!

3. Burning Bridges - What? What's that you say? Burning was BUILDING bridges instead of burnin' them?? Say it ain't so! But really, our super secret spies... panel of expert judges overheard certain members of BB going out of their way to meet new people, all in the spirit of the Belt. It's magic, I tell ya! 

2. Shake N Bake - At some point... around 11:53... Shake N Bake finally decided to show up. And show up they did... in droves. They held their ground and made a big showing for the (after) midnight photo but in the end it just wasn't enough. I'll give it to them that their shirts tend to blend in {especially against Safety Orange. I mean what shirts don't blend in... besides "Burn Your Retina Yellow" that is} but if that's your MO then don't make a big deal about how you JUST showed up just before the A.M.P. Just sayin'. {no Heidi and Duncan, we are not talking to you}

Our blury, but super excited, Week 2 Champs!

1. Battlestar Ballsacktica - This week it was a showdown until the very end (this lengthy commenting on the blog proves just how competitive this competition can be) And even though Battlestar managed to leave the moment our AMP was snapped {how does a mass of people in safety orange manage to disappear so quickly??}, it was their consistent showing throughout the night brought them to the top.




Who will bring home the gold next week??? I personally can't WAIT to see what our Pen Div has it store.

Until next time -- Bottom's Up!
