Week 5 Photo Newsletter Part III

Capturing 1st place in the category of "Capitalizing on a mild YouTube craze"

The Honey Badger (and his prey). Carson is the biggest (read: only) Honey Badger enthusiast that I know. I've been told that he easily convinced his team on the costume idea. He was less successful with his followup Honey Badger video viewing party.

In a blast from the past, Forkin' Balls went with the Flintstones. For those you too young to remember watching the Flintstones, "Twinkle Toes" Fred and Barney spent their leisure time in the bowling alley. That would be the leisure time that that wasn't already taken up verbally abusing their wives and chowing down on Brontosaurus Burgers.


In the "Let's Pick a Costume to Offend one of our Team Members" category:

The Panda-philes came as Poachers. As a point of explanation, Jake is an Asian-American. One who has a predilection for molesting pandas. In their continuing effort to rehab Jake, his team has been making Jake face his flaws in public. If this doesn't work, I've been told that they will simply remind Jake that he is of Japanese decent and that panda bears are native to China.


I Can't Believe It's Not Gutter
ICBING came into Halloween night in 1st place dressed as middle of the standings team Gutter-Done. They promptly got waxed and are now looking up in the standings. If I were Jenna, I might have followed the advice of a little four old boy. Last year a little budding alley rat took one look at Gutter-Done captain Donny and went screaming to his mom yelling "Mommy don't let me grow up to be like that guy".

Steve Jobs and the IBowlers
Stop Looking at Our Balls captain Brett Hoover, was the brainchild behind this costume. It was his small way to pay tribute to one his heroes, Steve Jobs. Rory, the BFBL intern was able to sit in on the design sessions for these costumes and had this to add. "Originally, Walker was tabbed to be Siri, the new Iphone 4s digital assistant. After 5 minutes of Teeter randomly yelling "Siri drop your pants", the idea was scrapped."

Finally in the "WTF" category we have Bowl Movement.

It's unclear to the league office if the team simply refused to take their team photo of if Phil and Leif felt that they were the team and everybody else was there to just suck up oxygen.

In either event, we can all be glad that Leif's original costume idea didn't see the light of day.
See everybody tonight at the alley.
