Six HIMs conquered the Gladiator: Abacus, Flip Flop, Kitty Litter, Uncle Sam (R), Squid, & Mr. Hat (Q). We started with the Slaughter Starter, which if you’ve browsed the Exicon, is 20 BOYOS.

In the middle of Thang 1, F-Stop reminded me that I forgot to play some Taylor Swift, and my heart sunk. I will have to remember my speaker next time.

F-Stop joined the Gloom during IPC week. What a terrible yet awesome time to join this brotherhood.

During this timeContinue reading “Gladiator Backblast 12.4.2020”

Four HIMs stretched it out @ Pewee Valley Station #2: Skirmish (R), Uncle Sam (R), Flip Flop, and Mr. Hat (R). After IPC, The Abyss bros decided Broga was needed.

Four HIMs graced the newly lit, one working lightpole AO that is Long Run Park. The PAX: Uncle Sam (R), Flip Flop (HBD), Squid (welcome back), & Mr. Hat (Q).
