Blind Draw Awesomeness

Woohoo! We had 10 people play in our Sunday blind draw yesterday afternoon. I guess that's going to be the average of people that we will get to play. And that's fine by me. With 10 players the pot is usually $75 with the first place team splitting $50 and the second place team splitting $25. This week - Mom and I split the $50!

My hubby Kevin won 3 strikes. He wins a lot! But the best part of the day was after we were done playing shuffleboard.

For some weeks now, Kevin has been running shotgun pots on various professional and college sports to raise money for a flat screen TV for the bar. A shotgun pot is a card with 10 lines printed on it. You pay however much, write your name on a line and once the card is filled, there is a little "pull-tab" on the left. Pull this off to reveal your number. That's the number that you want whatever sports your watching to finish on. Say for instance you got a 9 as your number and you're watching basketball. The game ends and the score is 109 to 110. You take the last digits of both scores and add it together. It's a 9 so... YOU WIN!

Anyways, back to the best part of the day/night (besides winning!). Kevin brought a big box from his truck. It was our new 46" flat screen TV! We pulled everything out from behind the shuffleboard table, took all of the flags off the wall and hung that bad boy up! Now all that is left is to run some cables, sit back and enjoy!

It's been a week since the Crowe Barflies have played shuffleboard. It's week four of the season but it's our 3rd game. I still don't have any good voodoo so I'll most likely just make it up as I go along. We have to head over to Hunter's Pub to play on Wednesday. Do i need to say it? I really want to win!

Go BarFlies!
