Larry “Legend” Zeiser
(2003-2008) Sponsor 2003-2008, Tequila Sheriff 2003-2005.
Larry Legend joined the fray with a spare fifth of Jose Cuervo in 2003 and hasn’t missed a tourney since. He’s teamed up with friends, siblings and co-workers through the years, but hasn’t missed an opportunity to toss the plastic. As part of the Zeiser empire, he’s also been tremendously generous as a sponsor every year of his involvement, lending a hand to the Kitt Fisher Memorial Mad Scramble Golf Outing and the Fat Bastard Wiffle Ball Tournament every year since 2003. He’s also responsible for the past several years of the outdoor libation station at the Ice Cream Social and Chateau Ringler, above the red field. One usually finds him in the tent of montezuma or manning the portable bar.
Thanks to Larry and the L&B Portfolio for a Hall of Fame effort and support!

Dustin “Dut” Nichols
(2002-2008) Baxter Bowl Champ 2007, Batting Champion 2002.
A consistent winner, Dut burst onto the scene in 2002 with a batting title, the long ball, and a live pitching arm. He lured his brother into the fray the following year and he’s been the top of a top ten squad nearly every tournament since, regardless of the lineup or his teammates. A sharp wit and good funny man, he’s been called the “funniest guy at the tournament” by Hall of Famer EZ-E as he never fails to enjoy the day to its fullest. A good man on a road trip, he’s also a regular the the Winter Fiasco and he’s ventured to a few Michigan Wiffle Alliance events as well. He’s also been busy running his own small league in Mason.
Congrats to Dut, the original “Ringer” and now a Fat Bastard Hall of Fame member.

Matt “Rusty” Hilgers
(2003-2008) Ice Cream Social Superstar 2003-2008. Won a game 2003, 2006-2008.
There’s no surer sign that the Fatty has “officially” begun than when the Milwaukee duo rolls into town on Friday evening. The Suds City Wunderkind and his Hall of Fame partner specialize in love letters to the Front Office, cryptic alias hotel names, and long, slow, wet kisses that last all night. Sometimes, they even wear pants. One of the absolute good guys of the Fatty since the day he arrived, Matt’s one of the guys that made Milwaukee famous. He’s also recently married – we’re assuming to a girl, even – and joined the ranks of fatherhood.
We’ve called him a friend for years and now we’re happy to bestow upon him his highest “athletic” honor (fortunately “athleticism” is not a requirement): membership to the Fat Bastard Hall of Fame.
