Lotsa fun was had and jokes were made.

Props:
Paul for being the 1st person to run the table during the "title belt" era. Getting 10 packs of modern masters for it may not have been a bad thing.
Pops Thomas for being the underdog story of the day(he eeked into the t8 and then took out Paul).
Guy for jamming the most old school deck in the shop.
Mike Noble. Just because.
Seth. For being Mike's stunt double and all around good guy.
Ryan Glackin. One. Man. Riot.

Slops:
The 4-6 guys who came to late to play.
Players not knowing what null brooch or skyship weatherlite does.

No crazy ideas for september as of yet but i'm open to suggestions.
sorry for the delayed report but my laptop died.

cheers,
cal
