11pm!!!!!

That's right, when the Grand Pooh-Bah wasn't looking we snuck Slapshot by him to its original 11 pm slot. Most of us will be in bed by midnight anyway. You don't need to know how to play ... your fellow tormentors - err players - will teach you as you go along. Slapshot is just about having fun and being silly. Rules just get in the way!

Welcome to the 17th annual Slapshot event - the 'unofficial' end to WBC.

We'll be using the same format we have in the past - all options except two divisions - just come in, sign up and find yourself a table. Keith (the voice of Slapshot) Hunsinger will begin the always humorous reading of the rules shortly after 11 pm and then we'll begin play. As always please try and bring a copy of the game (or one of the knock offs) as we always seem to be short.

COSTUME CONTEST!!!

This year we'll have our eighth annual costume contest. It has been a big hit with lots of people wearing their favorite teams' jersey, a referee's outfit and even a Red Army Hockey Jersey. Hopefully you guys will be as creative this year and more of you will participate. Pretty much any costume goes - hopefully it'll be hockey related. The judging standard will again be whatever tickles the fancy of judges Bruce Reiff and Keith Hunsinger at the time. Prizes will include hockey related memorabilia and possibly tickets to a NHL game ...

See you all Saturday night! Go Blue Jackets!!!!
