SALMON SMOKEOUT
WTB - Hoover, AL
June 9, 2007
The 1st Annual Salmon SmokeOut at the (soon to be world famous) WTB
in Hoover, Alabama, was a definite hit, despite a group full of rookie
ballers looking to achieve a World Ranking, 95+ degree temperature
and only 1 court! The champion was Dilbert, the one-name enigma,
who hails from the booming metropolis of Decatur, Alabama. Note
to all...never challenge a hillbilly to yard games.
The games began slowly as the newcomers struggled to get their form,
to pinch or not to pinch, and understand all the rules of the game.
Luckily, the tournament manager has been schooled several times by
the Commish and was able to sort out all questions. We played
the first round games to 15, and then converted to 11-point games for
the "second
chance" bracket to ensure enough daylight for the Finals.
In a surprising moment, unconventional tosser (2-ball cup) Matt Rohling
almost achieved a 12-Monkey to win a 2nd-round match. Unfortunately,
his attempt pulled off a 3-pointer, resulting in a 6-point throw and
keeping his opponent, Gidge Black, in contention, down 6-0. She
roared back, pulling to 9-8 before Matt finally put her away. We
also saw the eventual Champion Dilbert successfully toss a 1-pointer
between the legs en route to beating Scott Salmon 16-14.
We intend to host the event next year, incorporating more courts,
more people, more food and more drinks! Hallelujah Hollaback!!
