26 brave souls, mostly clad in Hawaiian shirts and sporting lip caterpillars, and 1 four-legged friend, crashed Robin’s Nest for the 3rd Annual Magnum PI Day. It went a little something like this:
Today’s Q played the Magnum PI Theme Music and proudly displayed the Cornhole Trophy as he planted the flag and then it was 0530 and time to mosey. The mosey took us to the customary COP circle and around it a couple times. Then, COP included:
- First episode aired 12/11/1980
- DQ (Higgins) IC x 12
- Helicopters (TC) IC x 11
- Magnum Merkins (Stache to the ground) IC x 19
- SSHs (just cause) IC x 80 (Q almost passed out)
- It ran for 8 years – 8 burpees OYO
Enough of that, let’s mosey down to the amphitheater at Robin’s Nest – man was it soupy. Gather at the bottom for instructions. There were 162 episodes of Magnum, and we have 18 steps, and 18 x 9 = 162, so on the way up, 9 squats and on the 9th one box jump to the next step. What goes up must come down, so 9 dips on the way down. Plank-o-Rama for the 6
Mosey to the Golden Triangle for the Volcano STACHE Beast. The first round involved running the Golden Triangle twice….modifications were made and audibles were called, but we still got 6 exercise stops each round and 6 rounds for the BEAST and plenty of exercise and plenty of running. Exercised included:
S – SSHs x6
T – Tempo Merkins x6
A – American Hammers 2-ct x6
C – Carolina Dry Docks x6
H – Monkey Humpers x6
E – Elbow Plank as a PAX for 30-seconds each stop
Back to the COP Circle to honor the Final Episode on 5/8/1988 with rapid fire Mary, as follows:
Hello Dollies x5
Rosalitas x8
Flutter Kicks x19
Box Cutters x8
Freddie Mercuries x8
Magnum was PI, so we finished time with Plank Jacks x8 and Imperial Walkers x8, then we chased the bad guys back to the flag.
COT, Numbers, Names, and YHC took us out.
ANnouncements:
