I think James wins MVP for going 5 trips. I was about to fall over after the 4th one and he just jumped right back and pushed again.

It seems like the red team (me, patrick, kyle) was on a suicide mission on that first lap, since Patrick had to sit out the rest and Kyle gave a touching rendition of Gary at his finest after the lap.

Yeah, after that first one I kinda pussed out. Grits were a bad choice.

As a reminder it is Cassi, NOT Cassie

Nice job guys! I was impressed! Tonight was definitely a success, especially since I didn't crash Matt's fancy, keyless car.

Cassi Padgett said...

Nice catch, Matt. How dare you, Greg.

Greg: you have earned yourself one solo car push. Cassi is allowed to drive and use the brakes as she pleases.

I changed it. I remember she corrected someone before that's why I second guessed myself when I was spelling it. Fail.
