Memorial Day Weekend BBQ

It has been a very long time since we fired up a grill and gobbled down left over pig and cow "meat", better known as hot dogs. The rain was pouring down, but we made the best of it under the overhang of the roof. We had some corn moonshine, various beers, some yummy desserts in the form of brownies and cookies, cigars and great company.

Thanks to everyone who brought food, drinks and the grill!

Matt brought cookies and brownies...tell your wife Thanks!

The line up....

What is this stuff? 

Oh! Moonshine! Just like they make in Finland?

Celebrating a victory for the good guys.

Worst selfie ever.

Johnny grillin'

and grillin....

The group shot. Misfits galore

Max's turn....

And the Jaegermeister! My favorite. Ray you are up! 

Wall of Shame

SO, what shall we do with those who say they will show up and do not? Verbal abuse them until they cry? Forcing them to orally pleasure Linda? Have to hold hands with John Ferguson walking through the mall?

How about just posting their names up, immortalized for all time as no good, lousy, un-trustworthy son-of-a-bitch donkey f-ers?!

While we will not post the names from last night here and now, BEWARE! Those who in the future state their attendance as being at the rink and do not show will be persecuted to the full extent of TWAHT bylaws and admonition.

Which means, you will be banging a donkey.

So you better show up. You have been warned.

Thanksgiving game and after party 2016

Another year in the books, with the blue team winning 6-3 in a hard fought game with great goaltending and lots of action. Great to see everyone! Thanks to Bill Weber for the overall ability to play, John Andros for organizing it, and Ray Esposito for the turducken meal and Bill DeRosa for the fruit and cheese platter thing. As well, Tim Stevenson for bringing the corn hole game. 

Great to see everyone! Back to regular skating next week.

 On with the pics...

  While not technically TWAHT hockey, this is from a league game that many of the Thursday night guys play in. It's rare that Bill DeRosa will get into a fight or cause trouble, but here it is....

Some action from last night's game...enjoy!

The Blog is Back!

It's Been a long time! The blog was abandoned for a while, but it's back to be added to sporadically or whenever there is a few minutes to waste. Some videos from our game 3/7/13.Taken with an iPhone so don't bitch about quality.

 

The BBQ season kicks off

It's been a long while since the TWAHT'rs all crapped in unison on a Friday morning. And a few months of playing hockey with no after-game vittles has left many of us looking a tad anorexic. So before we faded into nothingness, a nice healthy and hearty meal was in order. I mean, whats the point of burning off 2000 calories if the result is a nice trim body? Something HAD to be done. And it was.

Our friend, and yet our enemy...the Grill. I think this is grill number 6? 7?

The usual cast of miscreants and misfits began gathering shortly after dark's supposed victory.

Pete, Bill and Geoff are impressed with TJ's disappearing hand trick

Linus becomes psychotic if waiting for more than 3 minutes to be served. John looks a little uncomfortable standing next to him and Rob begins turning raw meat into something we just cant say no to.

Linus snaps from the pressure.

"My BFF" Mike and Fred chum up.

Blury group shot...and at least Geoff is scratching up.

Geoff and Joe "smile" for the camera while Scot desperately tries and fails to present "the shocker"

Waiting for more food!

Vesa (Carl), Scot, Fred and Bill M. would not leave me alone until I took a good picture of them together.

Mike does his best impression of Sloth..."baby ruth" as Matt tries to ignore the continual Goonies references.

The Grill is the hardest worker in TWAHT hockey

John, Linus and Bill are STILL closest to the grill

Rob came back for a cameo appearance, and was the catalyst for the BBQ. Pete is wondering what the hell he is still doing here.

Men of TWAHT hockey

I think this is when Linda came out to do her striptease.

Ahhhhh...chipotle ribs being cut...

...by our in-house meat packer. Just look at that smile as he plays with his meat.

Bill and Geoff discuss meat packing

WTF are you all looking at? Vesa seems occupied and just wants that mellish!

I just KNOW Scot and Linus are laughing at the Schaefer in Bill's hands

Smoke rises: Always a good sign to get near the grill for the next serving!

I take over the grilling duties and subsequently drop 2 hot dogs, destroy a burger, burn 2 ribs and eat twice as much as I would have had I been further away.

I wish I concentrated this much on the ice.


If you look real close to the right of the screen, you can see Bill P slipping into ecstasy while others get THEIR fill too.

Scot practicing to be more ornery than Pete

RIBS!!!!

More ribs...much better looking than all of you

Vesa and Bill start the drinking contest

Mike challenges John F to a rumble



A great night for being a TWAHT.
