Bam Bam…I said 12 bells of Christmas, not 2 balls of Christmas!


10 men, some doning gay apparel and some not, answered the call for the 12 Bells of Christmas.

  • The number of reps corresponds to the number in front of the exercise. As each exercise is added, like the song, you go all the way to one before adding the next exercise.
  • In between the 1st 6 exercises we did quadrophillia trips up and down hill corresponding to the number of the latest exercise (21 times up and down hill)
  • 7-10 was a combination of different length and amount of sprints in between rounds as the audibles started coming fast as time was dwindling
  • We did not get to 11 and 12.

COT:

  • Drop bells at the container and run to front
  • Unanimous opinion that Bam Bam wins the major award. Which actually is a major award. A six pack of the elusive Great Lakes Christmas ale.

Notables:

  • Bam Bam had a Santa covering his Jingle Bells last year which made the unitard funny. The Santa apparently fell off and this year I could tell what religion he is which was quite disturbing. I never thought I would give a guy in a unitard a 6 pack of beer.
  • Thanks to those who made an effort to play along with the outfits.
  • The YHC cannot get the timing right on this thing! Thinking I was overzealous on the quadrophilia. My legs are telling me that as well. Not sure two more rounds of that would have been good anyway.
  • Bunyan once again swinging a cannon ball. Great work! Did not hear much Christmas joy coming from you this morning.
  • YHC walked out of the house without a sign I modified from the Black Friday Convergence. Called audible and put it in my phone.
  • Do not buy a Logitech "blue tooth" speaker.
  • Great work by everyone. We did a good job of staying together.

Thank you all for coming out. Thank you Bam Bam for allowing me to lead.  Let's remember why we are celebrating this season. God bless.
