sort of an abbreviated issue, we’ve
got photos, our man on the street

recap of what went down last week
at the bar. Thanks to those that contributed to this issue, next week,

Actual and Factual News aka Stuff We Didn’t Make Up
Saturday, June 16: It’s KICK ASS PARTY #1, to be held at the Barking Dog.
Cheap drinks, specials and a hell of a time! Get wasted and see your fellow kickballers
in their nicest Saturday attire. Party starts at 7:00 pm in the sky lounge (upstairs).
Saturday, June 30: The first ever BEER OH-LYMPICS! This wonderful event will be
taking place at the Barking Dog in Bethesda starting around 2:00 pm and concluding
around 6:00 pm. The events include:
Flip Cup (8 people per side)
Beer Pong (2 people per side)
Anchorman (4 people per side)
Power Hour
You Got Served! (The game formerly known as Quarters)
Kings
The Beer Relay (this is a surprise we’re working on…)
$15 per person gets you all the beer for the Olympics and all you can drink during the
day. If you’re interested in participating email us directly at
[email protected] to save a spot.
Saturday, July 28th: Playoff day and End of the Season Party. Details are still being worked out, but count on it being a great way to wind down after a long day of
tournament style kickball. Awards ceremony and crowning of the first ever Happy
Hour Kickball League Champion will take place there.
Rainouts—In the case of a rainout, the website will be updated by 4:00 pm the day of
the game. If the rainout occurs after 4:00 pm, please proceed to the field as planned
and a representative of HHKB will be there to inform you of the plans for the night. Of
course our specials at the Barking Dog will still be honored.
Referees—Each must provide a referee, either for the 6:30 game if you are playing at
7:15 or for the 7:15 game if you are playing at 6:30. If a team does not provide a referee to the game preceding or following theirs, they will receive a warning. If this occurs
subsequent to the warning, they will lose a point per occurrence in the league standings.
Forfeits—Only really occur if you have less than 4 people, this will be very difficult to
accomplish, so we don’t think this should be an issue…

10 Albondigas
In week 1 they owned the flip cup tables and
the dance floor, a sure fire way to get to be #1
They were flipping, bedazzling and drinking, good start.
After WGTR, they were the strongest in shirt wearing.
Budweiser Mike, Unnecessary Point!
Seamus, Julia and Marika making good use of each
other
It was the Cunningham show, these truly are happy
days!
Good start at the pong table!
11 Another Bad Beat There was one ABBer, but I have a feeling they will get
better as the year rolls on
12 Sofa King Suite
They came to get their shirts and rolled, but this is not
an indication of things to come.
This Week as described by some of your fellow
HHKBers
A short recap by Get Drunk and Kick Balls Captain Le (pictured below)
Get Drunk and Kick Balls stands by our reputation and would like to give a Hell-Ya to
Diane Kinzer aka Princess for kicking arse in her first ever flip-cup challenge last week.
Yeah, for all of you who ditched the Happy Hour, you missed a virgin-flip-cupper. I
think she was the last of her kind. Cheers also for John K., Jeff S. and Richard R. for
coming to practice their flip-cup skills. Did I mention that it was Jeff’s second time ever
playing flip-cup? We might have few in numbers but man can we DRINK!!! Yes, people, we were the LAST ones standing.
And now a perspective from Off In Right Field….
Mother Nature 1, HHKB 0
Due to Mother Nature being a cruel deity with an unnatural hatred towards fun-loving young and not so young (Chris Bocquet) professionals, opening day was rained out.
You know how I know you’re…?
This led to the welcomed detour directly to the Barking Dog, where our
kind Commissioner provided a free keg, which in turn lasted all of 3 minutes.
T-shirts were provided for all teams, with many deciding to show their
colors by sporting the shirt immediately. Even those still in work attire, decided
it would be a good idea to wear their colors over their suits. (Thank you women
of Orange Crush)
God bless beer and female inhibitions
And now a perspective from Off In Right Field…. (cont…)
On a side note, how hard is it to take off or even loosen your tie before
entering the bar. This isn’t some Manhattan hot spot, where the Patrick Bateman’s and Gordon Gecko’s of the world gather to compare their latest business
card fonts. Loosen up, pun intended.
Big hit of the night was the pleasantly surprising color combo of brown
and yellow. Who knew that would be such an appealing combination? Loads of
appreciative and some jealousy inspired comments were heard throughout the
night, so congratulations to We’ve Got the Runz for winning the “Best Uniform”
and “Most Appropriate Color to Team Name” awards.
They got the runz!
After looking through the pictures, trying to recap the tail part of the night, I
am curious about the popular trend of giving the finger while getting your picture
taken. What exactly is the point of this? It’s not as if you are being photographed
by some creepy paparazzi, who is more hated than Angelina Jolie at an Aniston
family barbeque. These pictures were taken by our own Commissioner, who as
previously mentioned provided us with a free keg. Is there that much disgust in
getting your picture taken? Are you that angry that you get tangible evidence of
the good times had at the bar? I think you should seek counseling. And yes, our
captain Cory Lawson was one of the culprits but he was also wearing a “Chicks
Hate Me” t-shirt and we all know that two negatives make a positive, so in his
own twisted way he shared his joyful outlook on life.
No Caption to this photo
Needed I assume!
And now a perspective from Off In Right Field…. (cont…)
A special recognition is given to Meagan Davis of our own Off in Right
Field for taking the creative initiative of Bedazzling our teams shirts.
Insert inappropriate caption [here]
Fellow kickballers were so impressed that many stripped off their own
shirts, rather provocatively I must admit, at the bar and had them bedazzled right
there. Taking the Bedazzling a step forward, Off in Right Field is stealing one from
college football and instituting a bedazzle reward system, much like the sticker
award used on the helmets of such high profile football schools as Ohio State and
FSU.
The basis behind this is an elaborate mathematical equation that will dictate the positive contribution of each player throughout the game and more importantly the bar. Hopefully this internal competition to receive the most awards will
lead Off in Right Field to a highly successful season of kickball and debauchery at
the Barking Dog.
Some Thoughts from Doing Limes in The Bathroom...
Week 1 was a washout, and there is only one thing to do when a game is washed out due to
weather…
What would that thing be?
Drop the lyrics of the greatest rain song ever into the newsletter with a photo of the artists responsible for it.
Ladies and Gentleman, Milli Vanilli’s “Blame it on the Rain”
Congrats Rob and Fab!
Sorry Prince, you’re a close 2nd!
You said you didn't need her,
you told her goodbye.
You sacrificed a good love
to satisfy your pride.
Now you wish that you still had her,
and you feel like such a fool.
You let her walk away,
now it just don't feel the same.
Gotta blame it on something,
gotta blame it on something.
Blame it on the rain that was fallin', fallin'.
Blame it on the stars that shine at night.
Whatever you do, don't put the blame on you;
blame it on the rain, yeah, yeah.
You can blame it on the rain.
Should have told her you were sorry,
could have said you were wrong.
But no, you couldn't do that,
you had to prove you were strong.
If you hadn't been so blind then,
she might still be there with you.
You want her back again,
but you just don't feel the same.
You can blame it on the rain.
But the rain don't mind and the rain don't
care.
You've gotta blame it on somethin'.
You can blame it on the rain,
Blame it on the rain, yeah, yeah.
Ain’t That A Kick In The Head?!
We asked, “Gas prices have hit an all time high, what are you going to do about it?
Alternative fuels, alternative energy, and I’ve found
just the one, smooth, sweet flowing Bud Light, it
sure gets my motor going…VROOOM!!
Heather Smithco, Orange Crush
I once caught a fish this big off the coast of
Florida, no joke...wait what?
Craig Fritz, We’ve Got the Runz
The only thing a man can do at a time like this,
Crocodile Dundee and Teen Wolf Film Fest, I
mean what else could you do?
Jeff Smith, Get Drunk and Kick Balls
Finally the time of the unicyclists is upon us!

Time to make the obvious pink lady joke...

Deep Thoughts by Dan Holloman
A collection of the brilliance that is Daniel Van Buren Holloman
A sleeping bag is a tortilla for a human.
A waffle is like a pancake with a syrup trap.
Chicago is known as the Windy City, and Montana is called the
Big Sky State, so I think that we should somehow combine the
two to create the ultimate kite-flying experience.
Every time I go and shave, I assume there's someone else on the
planet shaving. So I say, 'I'm gonna go shave, too.'
Fettucini alfredo is macaroni and cheese for adults.
I don't have a girlfriend. I just know a girl who would be really
mad if she heard me say that.
I had a stick of CareFree gum, but it didn't work. I felt pretty good
while I was blowing that bubble, but as soon as the gum lost its

That;s it for this week, let’s have a great start to the regular season this
Wednesday, and hope for no rain.
