are May 12th this year, Irish 9a start. I've had lots of folks reach out already, so I thought this was in order. $20 again, gotta pay for the porta rental somehow. All athletes also get a lunch ticket for some sweet bbq goodness from 2 bears. All 9 events, plus extras based on time. Every class, All masters, liteweights <200 (please dont turn this thread into a 200vs190 debate). I've got a bunch of newb females for Ali T to break in. Sheaf standards can now accommodate Wadell, plus they're at the maximum legal width. We had a blast kicking off the season last year, hoping to do the same this year, just with more folks. There's talk of a man with large biceps and flowing locks making an appearance. Pretty sure HAN is going to be on site. I'll update the Roster as the names start rolling in. All athletics, all awesome. Pumped to see all your faces again!

well.....I was thinking about moving to a different park, thats kind of in a bowl. But in May...I feel like it would be kinda swampy.....so back to the giant, super level field in the ghetto. Plus that field has those old post hole things, remember how easy it is to set up sheaf standards? I'm thinking we'll probably have 40+ athletes this year.......fourth trig? also.....I got another of your college throwing buddies coming, Don Gephardt?

John can't help it that his hands are 2" thick and his fingers are short. If he could only hook grip a d-ring HG handle..........
Jasen I'll put in for the time off of work and do this. If you need any equipment for the extra rigs, let me know. I've got multiples of everything ready to go.

Here's the entry, I'm sure it will be on NAS eventually:

I grew up in Pgh and my sister in law lives a few miles from the venue. They even have a family membership at that Y. If my wife doesn't go I'm taking my oldest boy to hang out with his cousins and I would have room in the truck if you or some else wants to ride along.

Duncan, I've got over 10 now, a few with crooks, a few heavy and dense, some long ass light ones, pretty much everything. I wouldn't say any are perfect......actually farm from, but plenty to test every style of athlete. MetalGear = Challenge

any idea of who is on the list for the other classes? It sounds like there could be about 50 athletes overall.

If anybody is going and is interested in a set of Captains of Crush 1.5 grippers let me know. I accidently ordered them instead of the .5's and was lazy until it was too late to return them. They cost $19.99 + shipping. Would like to get my $ - the shipping back if possible. That way if anybody wants them I will save them the shipping cost...because it was my own darned fault...silly internet check spot...They are still in the plastic/cardboard package, never even opened.

All yours, still in the package even. I will be glad to see someone get use out of them. I think I could do the .5 now and work towards the 1, but the 1.5 isn't realistic for a bit. It would be a shame to just have them sitting there, so glad it will work out.

You're gonna want to to into Masters anyway, Gnome. I'm down to 192, so if you want someone to beat on the pitch, switch to the old men group and watch me come in dead last!

I'm gonna try this method out since we have loads of athletes and I'm admittedly horrible at bookkeeping. show up that morning (or dinner the night before at the Victory) with $20 (American Currency only), I'll have a waiver to sign, you get a t shirt and a ticket thats good for bbq lunch with all the fixins'. Since everyone loved the t's so much, I ordered extras so sizes shouldnt be a problem, should also have enough for all the helpers plus a few to sell (would like to at least break even year 2).
I enjoy punctuation (parentheses).

AARP (American Assoc. of Retired Persons) Okay bro, in simple terms who are the old farts that are coming to throw in the Masters class. As Chuck and I are well over 50 we need to take a nap now and then especially after you feed us with some awsome chow. I like your idea, soooo please have sheaf or Wob events directly after lunch please.
