So when I began writing the #BarBuzz I thought one of two
things would happen.
1. That every week there would be a clear winner
because one team would just be so epic with their shot-taking and dancing that
no other team could compete.
OR
2. That there would be no clear winner because
every team would just be out there having a damn good time.
But last week it hit me. Something was happening that I
never in a million years expected. Maybe it’s the change of weather, or maybe
it’s something in the water, or maybe people are just taking too many balls to
the head. But whatever it is it’s causing…. the MIDSEASON HUMP. This condition
is a problem. People are going home early and in some cases not even coming out
to the bar at all! People are yawning, team participation at the bar is
dwindling, and I’m crying on the inside. I knew something was going on last
week when All I Do is Win came on and
I heard only a faint whisper of “RUMSPRINGA!”
during the chorus, in fact, I think I only saw 3 Rumspringa members total last week!
It's so small :( |
What is happening here? We are grown-ass responsible adults, let's get crazy on a school night! Let's make bad decisions and make new friends! So where are the 5 O’Clockers? The Chaotic
KILFS? The Situation? I think I
have yet to meet someone from New
Kickheads on the Block and Boom! and
the only person I think I’ve met from Free
Ballin’ is D-Baum!
But, some teams seem to have avoided this cursed epidemic. Kickin’ Atoms, B&C gang, and Ball So
Hard have yet to disappoint me with their numbers and Kickin’ Atoms and Ball So
Hard have been rocking the challenges! Kick
A$$ has made appearances along with my favorites from Just For Kicks Jennifer Gold, Freed, Kelsey. The token Chubby Gangsters rep (Keith Morehart) has
been MIA and goodness I wish I saw more kilts out at night! And my favorite PBJ rep Jeremy has had successful bar
appearances.
But the team itself cannot be measured by the strengths of
one individual. Troy (Rumspringa), Kelsey (JFK), Keith (Chubby Gangsters),
Jeremy (PBJ), and Justin (Kick A$$), you guys are awesome, get your teams out
there! Let’s get over this midseason hump, avoid the plague, and get back to
having fun! What happened to all those stories of candyland, pole dancing, and
bar dancing? –I don’t know the true stories of any of those…I just heard about
them. Show me how your team is legendary and what you’re known for! The rookie
teams are bringing the house down and I’m ready to see what the legends have
that they’ve been hiding!
Individuals! |
So for never letting me down, always participating in the
challenges, and for never staying in one place for more than 20minutes. For
covering the pool tables, the dance floor, the bar, and sometimes the patio. Ball So Hard, your unfaltering
socialization, dedication, and competition is flawless.
Drop it like it's hot Brad... |
…now if I can only convince some other teams to give them a
run for their money.
Peace out dudes.
