69ers Slo-pitch

August 10th:

Shell Lake - June 19/04 Grasswood - August 22/04

Well, it's official. Al and Jessica tied the knot on June 10th and began their new life together. Twas an awesome wedding and there was only ONE person from the ball team who appeared to be quite drunk. Considering they had a "free bar" I am surprised there was just the one! I've finally updated the photos so click on the champagne to see pictures of the lovely couple.

Our ball playing might of sucked but we definately made our presence known in the beer gardens on Saturday. The trip from start to finish was a ton of fun and everyone had a great time. Rather than talk about the trip from start to finish I will just mention some of my own personal highlights of the trip: 1) 60 beer drank between four people from Saskatoon to Calgary 2) Almost getting booted out of our hotel rooms in Calgary 3) Going to the "classy" strip club in Kelowna. Nothing says class like having a trough in the mens room for the guys to pee in! 4) Going to the "scuzzy" strip club. Hells Angles, curtained off rooms, $8.00 shooters.......nice. 5) Watching the gals reactions after they saw the male strippers at Flashback. Us guys were all feeling a little inadequate at the description of the one male stripper! 6) Derek in the beer gardens with his classic saying "show me your nips". 7) Al getting hit on by yet another fat girl 8) Derek telling the taxi cab driver that it was a long way home to pakistan (had to be there) 9) Trevais and Derek ditching poor single Denise at the bar. 10) Al telling one girl, "your not going to the bar dressed like that are you?" 11) Trevais heckling the security guards at the beer gardens and "accidently" dumping a beer on one of the other teams players. 12) Denise and Al having to get the security guard to let them into the hotel room after the rest of us had passed out and didn't hear them knocking. 13) Dereks "Carlton" dance (Fresh Prince of Bel Air) at the lounge in our hotel. 14) Al desperately trying to get the one girl to show him her t_ts! 15) Kevin getting pantsed at the beer garden 16) Vanessa being so drunk she wanted people to tickle her feet 17) Trevais tripping and falling with Denise around the third pilon in the beer race 18) 10 pee breaks between Saskatoon & Kindersley 19) Derek asking the cabbie why there were so many lesbians in Kelowna 20) Sweet innocent Ashley coming over to the dark side as she to started asking people to show her their "nips". 21) Vannessa hurling out the window 22) Trevais and Derek harrassing the security guards in the beer gardens. Apparently they didn't like the sayings "hey baldy" and "comeon, your just rent a cops!" 23) Beer gardens in general on Saturday night. Twas mayhem! As I said, it was a great tournament and we would go again. The "non" A & B player rule was a huge joke however, we did enter on the competitive side. Oh well, such is life and next year we'll definately being going into the rec side. For those who came and had some fun thanks, and for the dork named Fred who cancelled out at the very last minute, sucks to be you!

We are sad to say that Darron will be leaving the team as he and his family relocate to Halifax. Darron has played with us for the past 5 years and while he will be missed, we wish him the best in his new role.
