WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS 2005
Rockford & Strathmore - Lansing, MI
September 24, 2005
Anything can happen in Monkeyball, just ask 2005 World Champion Jim Blair. J.B.
was swept in pool play action and came back from a 15-0 beat-down in game one
of the semifinals to win the inaugural Monkeyball World Championships. His vociferous
fan club (Gunns/Morrow/E Trinoskey) carried him to the title over Chuck Trinoskey,
15-11, 15-9. The championship point is shown below (JB leads 14-9 in game #2).
The 78-match tournament was held at the corner of Rockford & Strathmore in Lansing. In addition to the exciting championship round held at the McFall Monkeyball Arena, the tournament also featured: the youngest participant ever (7 year-old Ryan Hintz), a contestant who flew in from Florida, and a day-long 80th birthday party for Grandma Frushour.
