defeated!

Who in the what now? Team Shark Attacks fell to the undefeated Total F*cking Nightmare Storm during the Kubb matchup. We had no idea was Kubb was. All we knew was that it looked like an item that you could buy in Ikea next to the frozen Swedish meatballs.

Turns out it was less annoying than Bocce Ball and more fun than Cornhole. If Kubb is truly a Viking game, then I should of prepped by playing a good ‘ol fashioned round of Crossbows and Catapults.

Can you handle the flash AND the pressure, mr. photographer? CAN YOU?!?!?!?

Clayton makes a big play. Lizelle is the only one somewhat interested.

If I’ve learned anything from Lost, it is to throw together or die alone.

Tossin’ Wood

We tossed and we lost, but we didn’t care — Kubb was super fun!

The Hyphen sweeties may look innocent, but their wood-tossing skills are unstoppable.

And now… two stellar Haikus from our very own Game 1 MVP, Mike:

We flung wood at wood

Elmo moons from the castle

But it’s not enough

She ate our kubbs for dinner

Elmo cried in beer

Once again, drunk good times were had by all!

P.S. Nick was especially excited about our NEW BAR, Cassanova, which has the classiest art collection in San Francisco.

See you at the next and LAST game of the tournament. Sad face.
