FNG-1 = Talking Heads 2.0
FNG-2 = Daley (Watch Tower 2.0)
FNG-3 & 4 = Crocs 2.0’s
FNG-5 (and the 1-test) = true FNG’s
Yes, three children were present. Decisions were made. Don’t tell mom.
A tradition like no other, an hour-long Sharknado, during shark week (i.e. the stupidest, hottest, humidest, suckiest week of summer we can find), and including beer. This year we simplified the rules:
One point per lap. One point per drink during the workout (mostly Lites but some had alternatives). Two points for the shot standard. Two points for jumping in Croc’s pool right at the start and doing the entire workout wet. Two points for this being a double-down. Two points to the idiots who went to Carowinds all day and came straight to the workout from there.
Also new this year, we switched to a launch from Croc’s house to facilitate a much-needed soak in his pool immediately following. If you’ve been missing the Night Ranger workouts happening at his house (and pool)… well… you’ve been missing it!
Oh and related note: cobains for mixing up the Sharknado, I wrote down CDD instead of traditional merkins. Audible was that you could do either.
As seems to happen every year… we’re all too fried from the workout and/or fuzzy from the drinks to count up scores correctly. Despite the Twitter video, I do not believe I won. At the very least, I need -1 because I didn’t FINISH my last drink, I was still nursing it at 8:01. And I do think Pit Stop and Crocs under-counted, as Pit Stop and I were at the same exercise/lap… and Crocs was at least one ahead of us (but drank one less I THINK?). So I’m calling this a three-way tie with Crocs, Pit Stop, and YHC, which kinda suits because Pit Stop tries to win this this EVERY year and seems to get it stolen away tragically. Why should 2023 be any different?
Congratulations all, you have survived another year of Beernado, the premier LKN CSAUP that was voted most likely workout to cause brain damage. We should all be proud.
Special thanks to Crocs for hosting and ordering some awesome pizza for us, a much needed sponge for post-workout. At least your neighbors know you’re not the only degenerate in Huntersville now…
