10 Pax posted at Old School Saturday morning. No EC was completed which is odd. Broke was noticeably absent. He was out of town and has now reached wine gala rich. No hate brother…..well maybe a little. SA was oddly early and Def Leppard came in hot, parking in an unusual spot which caused him to lose his trucks twice later on. Pallbearer left the cherry picking behind in pursuit of a grown man’s workout. I was proud of him until I saw his effort on the wall-ups.

Warmup: Just some stuff that came up at the time. I did throw in a cherry picker or two to ease PB in to it.

The Thang:

Mosey up to Main St. Run to Ingles with a route 66 of Bobby Hurley’s at the poles. Over at the side of Ingles we partnered up for some Dora. 100 Freddy Mercury’s, 200 Mtn Climbers, 300 SSH’s. The other partner runs across the grass to the wall of Ingles and does a wall-up. That is walk your feet up the wall until you reach balls to the wall status. Sadly we had a couple girls afraid to get their shoes wet and they ran around the grass to the sidewalk. Others looked like they were doing dirty hook-ups with their feet instead of wall-ups. HTSI

After that we hit Main St again for descending route 66 Bobby Hurley’s. At this point Wirenut and Leppard got in to a discussion about Duke and Carolina players in the pro’s. Of course as Carolina fans they had to go back 30 years to find somebody to talk about. Wiki had no idea who they were talking about and wondered if they were still shooting granny shots back then.

Back at the start I had setup a volleyball net. Wirenut had mentioned wanting some team sports at OS this summer so here we go. I read something some others areas were playing called Wazonka ball but I couldn’t quite figure out if they were using a net or not. So we played normal Vball rules but every time you hit the ball  you have to drop and do a burpee. The team that gets scored on has to do a burpee. You can’t score on the serve. All of these seemed to confuse everyone but I shouldn’t be surprised. It was hard to remember to drop and do the burpee after you hit the ball. SA was a good team mate and reminded me several times. Leppard and Wirenut had to be called out a few times after hitting the ball a dozen times in a row without doing a burpee. Leppard may still be out there catching his up. The grass was wet so the ladies had to suck it up. The ball got wet so it was slippery. It was something different and all in all a pretty good time. We did get to see PB do a little dance. He looked like the gopher from Caddyshack rotating his hips.
