It’s football season baby, and that means fantasy football and flag football. BMG and I put a team together and played our first game tonight. It was great to get out and do something physically competitive, but we ended up with an L and lots of areas to improve. Luckily it’s a social league so the teams are pretty even, we just need to get cohesive as there are lots of people who have never played together before. GF came towards the tail end and watched which was great; too bad I couldn’t have showed her my sweet football moves.
Both teams ventured to Crime Scene afterwards and took advantage of their exclusive pitcher specials and quickly got to drinking. The perimater of the main room was encompased by couches, leaving the center open for debauchery and nonsense. They soon brought out collapsable tables for us to play flip cup on that reminded me of my past fraternity days, followed by plastic cups and ping pong balls in case we got crazy and decided to play beer pong.
Without hesitating we took to one side of the table, with the team that had beaten us following to the opposite side and the real drinking began. We started socializing in between pounding beers and flipping cups and realized the other team has been playing together for the past 5 seasons and won the league 2 years in a row, making us feel ever so slightly better. They did however continue to dominate, beating us on the flip-cup arena something like 10-1 and all pride was sapped from our team. I like to think there are no real losers in flip cup as long as you keep playing, but it still sucks to lose.
We got cleared out of the middle to make room for a band that was coming, which was fine because our pizza just arrived. A guy announced himself as Krussia and that he had a fresh music video they just shot and was showcasing for the first time ever, just for us! I enjoyed it, thinking the music was kinda like Incubus and Linkin Park, but as soon as he got to actually playing, his mic died. For the next hour the guitarist and drummer did instrumental jam music, touching on Hendrix, Zeppelin and simply making my ears happy. As soon as Krussia was ready I was ready to leave, after thoroughly enjoying these two jamming together.
Good luck to him and to team Back That Pass Up, we’re both going to need it.
