13 flannel clad faithful came out to celebrate the 31st anniversary of Pearl Jam’s first album and recreate the themed beatdown from 6 years ago. Ma Bell joined us from Carpex and we provided him with the chance to join in on the fun:
COP: 10 Burpees, Invisible Jumprope, Ukrainian Soldiers, Helicopters, Merkins, Flutterkicks, Scorpion kicks. Mosey over to penny stage and grab a coupon. Triple check: Block the Plank, Block Thrusters, and run to tree and back. Next partner up and flapjack Murder Bunny length of field alternating 5 burpees and catch up. Way back lunge with block instead.
Mosey down to the Rusty Cage: 4 sets of 8 Pullups & 10 Dips. Head down to bottom for a triple check: Heels2Heaven, Carolina, Dry docks, and run the loop. Mosey over to Love Hill – Per upchucks request fro an encore: Alternate bear crawl and 10 squats up the hill. Call audible for time and mosey back to the flag.
Announcements: Convergence on Labor Day: 7:00 am. F3RVAs 8th anniversary at Gridiron on 9/24.
NMS: Solid PAX with majority taking to the theme with Flannel shirts. Handshake complained the theme exercises were light with more trivia needed. YHC admits this was light on the trivia, instead focused on a good beatdown. Maybe standards for theme Qs are lacking and we need a section of Q school to cover this to ensure compliance.
There were difference levels of flannel with Fudd committing by thrifting one yesterday. Upchuck emerged with a flannel bathrobe then changing to a button down Oxford. Gomer Pyle wore flannel but rumor has it he had a Fugazi T-shirt on underneath. Handshake was out of place, showing up saying he listened to Grunge in elementary school and his favorite Grunge band was Silverchair. EF Hutton brought a nice flannel shirt out and had a spare to boot. Mr Rogers went Eddie Vedder style with his wrapped around his waist. T-claps to the Site Q for prompting YHC to take the Q and throw this out there. A lot of PAX have a soft-spot for Dogpile as it is the crown jewel of RVA AOs, YHC included. Seeing the success of the Crucible and Rock & Roll are great to see as well. MDPFA!!
