This may be the best thread in the history of the USAWKS Kids forum, it is so good it has me thinking of coming up for the cookout alone. Here are a few thoughts.
I'll bring whatever you want if that will sway your votes this fall to keep State in Topeka. It's a whopping 3 miles from my house!
Patrick, what you spend on food, you will be able to afford the trip to Wichita, or wherever else the tournament would be held.
ok patrick you're out. it's not worth that vote. i'd vote for bush before voting to keep it in topeka.
Jerry, Bush isn’t running for president, he got beat, your choice now is Obama or someone else. Personally, I don’t think any of them are worth the price of a hot dog and a bottle of water at the Expo.
Is this BYOB, and will I be allowed to chew.
Chad, you’re something else you know that. Of course you can Bring your own bologna (to BBQ( and you can chew as long as you are outside, the Expo is not a school facility. Now inside while coaching, it all depends.
Windjammer taught me every thing I know about time travel invisible paint & wrestling in general. THANKS JAMMER!?!?!
Michael, speaking of paint, last week at HS state there was a sign on the door at the Bicentennial Center that Face Painting Not Allowed. Go figure on that one. Don’t know about the Expo though, so just in case, the invisible face painting may be recommended. For a few of those out there, hopefully it causes the face to become invisible as well, count me in on that one.
I watch threads every day, I see the last names, I know who your children are, I see them place at tournament after tournament, yet I fail to see how this gene pool creates such good wrestlers(when what i expect is a mildy expressionless face with a finger stuck to the second knuckle up a running nose, and a green vapor escaping his singlet from the rear, while he humms the banjo song from deliverence, in between loud yelps for yogurt covered tater totts).....you all must have some good wives.
Actually Owlbacker, we can all be grateful that we are a little west and north of Arkansas, there, the wife is from the same gene pool.
hey Patrick, instead of loading the grill into the truck why doesnt everyone just walk across the street from the expo to my house and we can grill and hang out there. just a thought.
If walking across the street, make sure the crosswalk signs are working. That intersection can get busy.
it's not fair to talk about all that good tailgate food, when y'all are starvin' yer kids to make weight. i'll take you up on that party across the street though, then i won't be disturbin' any wrastlers tryin' to get a good nights sleep, before hookin' it up. 9 o'clock?, that's too late, donw at the pitt we start tailgatin' at 6am, you have to take a break from drinkin', that's why it's called breakFAST you know!!
Thankfully Josh, by the time the BBQ starts, the weigh ins will be over and the wrestlers can participate. Of course I recommend chicken and the beef frys prior to eating anything too greasy.
I think someone needs to bring one them deep fat fryers and some bull nuts! That would be tasty in between rounds.
Actually a great idea Will, in fact if someone brings up the frys (connoisseur term instead of nuts) this would be worth the trip in and of itself, just make sure someone has the hot sauce.
Get on up that hill boy---dont say nothin just do it.
Perfect response for the perfect post luellen. Owlbacker, now that was some funny stuff. I laughed all the way through your post.
Beeson, quick question for you. Do they play dueling banjos during the parade of champions down in your neck of the woods?
Quick trivia question here, anyone know the name of the real author of that Southern Classic Dueling Banjos? Hint, he played on my former bands first album years ago. The story behind that song made him a millionaire.
OK - I'll set up a table and volunteer my time as a judge for all you famous BBQers. All samples will be due at the start of weigh-ins Friday night. Just let me know the best location to set up. I may need a few more volunteers to help sample. Consider this thread the OFFICIAL signup sheet for BBQSJ. You can send samples early - just PM me and I'll get you a mailing address.
Now there is another idea that would get me there and could become a tradition, an annual BBQ contest, of course as long as I attend, assuming I do and with the Beef Frys and now the BBQ contest the odds are shooting up to around 90%, I will assure you, there is only one name to print on that trophy, it is spelled FURCHES. Yep as a real southern boy, I am honored by the comments and awards my BBQ has won. I personally challenge, Sir Richard Salyer and Sporto02 to a BBQ challenge. Loser has to walk around the expo center in a singlet. And btw I do have a Red Team Kansas Wizzers singlet that would fit any one of us.
In all fairness to Jerry Dale he has TRIED to kick the habit several times. I have known him for about four years and I think he has attempted to cease firing up the cancer sticks 27 times! It usually lasts about a week. He claims job stress but we all know it is Wrestling Referee stress that pushes Jerry to spark up another and another and another...I think he chews nicotine gum inside, smokes outside, and wears the patch 7x24!
Back to Jerry and Will again, I for one can verify what Jerry is like when he disagrees with an official. I am honored though, I can still call him friend, other than when he is coaching and I am an official, then it is a “OH My Gosh” moment as an official, “Him again.”
Does anyone want to have cardboard sledding races down the side of the hill by the Expocenter with me, I wanna go fast?
Shake and bake baby. I’ll have my box waxed and ready, no spoilers or box adjustments to be made.
Whew, that was fun and I needed to escape for a few moments, now back to work.
