Klinger Bags a Buck!

Romeoville, IL
10/28/2011

Attendance: 18

16 skaters showed up!
Game 7 of the error filled World Series actually helped our attendance, even with the Bookie, T&A and the Maestro out of town with their kids and Klinger out in Montana shooting Bambi, we jumped to 16 skaters. Thanks to Rags and Papa Joe for bringing out a guest to help our sagging attendance. Rob and Gordie looked like good Duffers. 3 subs on the bench is a big difference to what we had last week. Most forwards were  back to

Klinger was out hunting

short shifts.  Having TZ and Tweedy serving as our pace cars, we looked a little like vintage hockey players again. The Reds got on the board first when Tweedy feathered a perfect flying saucer pass over 2 waving sticks right to his Dad's tape.  Beak hit it just as it landed flat on the ice.  The Brain had no chance to stop the one timer as he slid from post to post.  Tweedy got a big laugh when Magoo asked Beak if it went in, and Beak quickly replied, "Of coarse it went in!" The Czar sailed one from the blue line through a crowd and into the net to make it 2-0.  TZ decided to cut the lead in half before the game got away, so he kicked it into Beer league speed and blew one past the Anvil. That goal was a signal for Tweedy to get that one back, so he made a slick move and tucked the puck softly behind the Brain.  Tommy Z and V-Man scored late in the second period to knot the score at 3-3. The third period was scoreless until Tweedy and the Czar added late goals to give the Reds a 5-3 win.  The Anvil had a great game, as did the Brain, who foiled Magoo and Fruit Cake several times. There is no game on Friday, November 4!
The Next Duffer Road Trip is in February, start saving for a bus trip to Columbus OHIO.
Perfect Attendance Drops to Just 2  Fruit Cake and Geno remain perfect.
Geno showed up with a cast on his hand and brought us 30 cans of Strohs to keep his attendance perfect and qualify him for the Tim Smith Award.  Only guys with perfect attendance and show up at wild wings are eligible for the Tim "Basketball Jones" Smith award, but since he saved the day with beer, we gave him a pass

for his poor Wild Wings attendance.   Beak brought his wife's car keys, so that Fred didn't have to skate with his wallet in his glove.

This deer looks like Bambi. He was at the petting zoo eating out of a little kid's hand just before Klinger dropped him.

The Anvil is worried about his son in law, who was a Cheese Head in Pittsburgh after the Packers won the Super Bowl.

He was a Cheese Head until the Brewers got knocked out of the playoffs by the Cardinals, then he became a Red Neck.

Klinger and Buck Shot Morgan went all the way to Montana last week just to shoot an 8 point deer.  He could have done that at Caldwell golf course when Beak shot this 8 point buck which was featured as the Buck of the Week in the Sun-Times.

The above Cartoon was inspired by a real life day in the life of Klinger when he ran out of gas and didn't  have his wallet, so he called his boss Tom to have him send him some money.  Tom sent him $20.  Klinger bought lunch then put the rest in his truck.  He made it home, but ran out of gas on the way into work.
