Fat Bastard Wiffle Ball Tournament VI:
The Joy of Sechs

The Legend Lives On…
Pabst Smears, Six Packs, Jager Bombs and a new Champion

 

The 2005 Fat Bastard Wiffle Ball Tournament once again managed to get through the day without any major international incedents, but August 13th, 2005 shall live on in Harvard Yards infamy. This year’s bad athlete extravaganza will once again welcomed 24 teams to the pursuit of plastic glory…and maybe just a bit of chicanery.

A new champion was crowned, as “Fattened Stats” Garcia finally broke through the glass ceiling, with the help of a ringer, Tom “O” Henry and Scott Umphrey (and an un-Fatty-like level of blood in their alcohol systems). Roscoe P. Coltrane bested the comeback efforts of 80 Foot Dongs and Jimmy “Chitwood” to bring the Fat Bastard Title back to Michigan after a three-year haitus. Chitwood was named tournament Most Valuable Player and Henry was crowned the 2005 Golden Arm Award winner.

Fine efforts were also turned in by Def Leprechaun, who were the top ranked team entering play, but feel just short of the title, Don’t the French Have Subways Too?, whose military training must include magic pixie dust as they found a way to win ugly most of the day, and the Pabst Smears, who were named Best Team Name, & “Drunk Guy” along with “Rookies of the Year” for their efforts. Boys Named Sue also returned to form as Dave “F’n” Ringler claimed the Good Hands and Big Stick Awards as well as the Home Run Title and Cmoniwannalaya, looking better than ever, toughed their way through injury and insobriety to maintain their place in the rankings.

The Baxter Bowl was filled with sandbaggers again, as Ron Francis and Scott Graves “somehow” managed to triumph again over the Mormon Bash Brothers to claim another piece of hardware.

Be sure to check out the SCOUTING REPORTS for full details on each teams’ performance.
