Bar Buzz: Week 3, Spring 2012

Well, 'ballas, ,we here that Bar Buzz can't thank you enough for making our job SO difficult. Really... THANK YOU! Thank you for mingling so much all of your jerseys are vomitous blur of retina-burning color. Thank you, kickballers, for partying so hard that you've lost your car keys, gotten in face-offs over stolen t-shirts, and taken the most epic after midnight photos to date! It really is okay that we have full time jobs to take care of and have to carefully construct our time to write the bar buzz - much less spend a full day at work deciphering the insanity enough to score teams. In fact, don't worry... The College of W&M will soon end it's classes and we'll have at least 75% more time to devote to logging, dictating and sharing your most epic moments. Doesn't that make you at least 112% more pumped for next week?? So although you may have your doubts about how Week 3 shook out, now is your chance to check out the closest rankings we may have EVER had.

16. Just For Kicks
15. Just Kickin'-It
14. Chicken Tetrazinni
13. 5 O'Clockers
12. Peanut Butter Jelly Time
11. Chubby Gangsters

10. Battlestar Ballsacktica - Even though they were ranked 10th, we here at the Bar Buzz want you to take note of the Ballsacks winning celebration. FINALLY a celebration worthy of to the epic-ness that is the Bar Buzz Belt. Unfortunately, this sleeper team slept a little too much and was left in the dust of some pretty outstanding performances. 

9. New Kickheads on the Block - Well if you want to know where winners are born... it's in the early beginnings of the bar scene. All too often we are focused on "making it to the end" and getting in the AMP. While those things are all well and good... NKOTB knows, remembers and actively perpetuates the meager beginnings from which the Bar Buzz Belt was born - flip cup, mingling, and simply having a grand ole time. Hassell & Co are still in hot pursuit. And you should never, ever count them out. 

8. Burning Bridges - Personally {that is, if my personal opinion is of interest to any of you}, I have been super impressed by the way Burning has so quietly, so stealthy taken over the bar this season. No fuss, no drama. It's like, just SUDDENLY they were there. And it's become clearer than ever that they are hear to stay. 

7. Shake N Bake - The Bakers are more inconsistent than Peeta and Katniss's turbulent love affair. However, if anyone, they've certainly got the stamina to take them all the way to the top to the Bar Buzz Games. 

6. Jagernauts - It was a tight race to the top this week and that might be the only reason why the Jagers were left out off the top 5. With an active social team (Katie Litle and Trici Fredrick ("3rd person alert")) a duo to warm up the dance floor (Joe Mazzitti and his future Mrs. Kathleen Krohn) PLUS the baby pair to end the night (That would be Team Gitkos for you newbies). It's hard to believe that the Jagers didn't penetrate the top 5 this week. But really, it's going to take more than these 6 epic players and a dude in a suit to done the belt this year. 

4. Moose Knuckles & Free Ballin - It is rumored that there may be another alliance a-brewing (see enclosed photo graphic evidence). But either way, these two teams have been consistently... well... consistent. And that's no easy task given some of the heavy hitters week after week at the bar. I wouldn't be surprised if one of our Moose Ballin' (???) teams made a move sooner rather than later. 

Has a NEW alliance been born?
3. Kick Ass - Maybe it's the scarily real fake stuffed dog {how's that for a "double negative"?}. Maybe it's the seizure inducing yellow shirts. Maybe it's Manny's ability to mix with anyone and everyone. Whatever it is... this is a Kick Ass we have never seen before. And they are most certainly on a mission. 

2. Foul Balls - This week's match up was tighter than Ralphie Mae's spandex shorts. The Foulies made their best showing to date (this season) but it was just short of giving them advantage they needed. 

1. Rumspringa - Here is just a glimps into the extend of text messages I've received in the past 144 hours: Brian Yohn, Thursday April 19, 11:30am: You're the devil for making me fall in love with that belt.
  • Brian Yohn, later that night: Let the record show, I spent 154 plus 15 at taco bell (which counts)... plus lost my car key again (but the bouncer found it).
  • Matt Wellbrock, Tuesday April 24, 8:19pm (approx): Rumspringa outnumbered (foul balls) at the end and at least mingled, and Matt ("third person alert"?) laid two passionate kisses that lasted a combined 11 seconds {it's true, he did pull a Mary Chapin Carpenter and attempt to bribe our very own Gossip Girl with "passionate kisses"}

Now before you haters go and get your panties in a wad over (yet another) Rumspringa win. Let the record show that these texts (although seriously humorous in nature) really have nothing to with the 'Springas actual win. {This is our meager attempt at being creative, perhaps its not working}. Yet again our Smurfs in blue, out lasted, out played and out DANCED ALL of us. And they did it all with an 8:30 game on the books yet again. 

Oh yeah and before we forget....
Tonto, Jump On It >>>>>>> 0
Cupid Shuttle >>>>> -1
Wobble Dance >>>>>>>1
(btw, where in the hell did that come from?)

Until Next Time!  -- Bottom's Up!
xoxo gossip girl
