Hopefully, Cobra Kai Doesn’t Have Any Loose Photos Of The Media
For the first time since his free agent signing with What The Puck, former Cobra Kai member Adriano “Muscles Marinara” Bratta took on his former team on Sunday. Still upset at the 2008 regular season scoring champion for deserting the team, the Kais had some tricks up their sleeves for Bratta. On the second shift of the game, the Dojo unveiled its “5 Adrianos” formation, consisting of five players all with cutouts of Muscles’ face poorly taped to their chests. Captains Enayet “Retail” Rasul and Greg “Lysol” Altman even convinced stand-in goalie Minkus to partake in the charade. Although the mind games worked well enough to hold Bratta to only one goal, What The Puck still won the game 7-3 or 8-3, depending whom you ask.

2008 BTSH Ladies All-Star Party from Erik Price (filmed by Len Guinto) on Vimeo.
Three Wheels Are Better Than Two
Just prior to the start of the Women’s All-Star Game, the (potentially) First Annual BTSH Tricycle Race commenced, as all five entrants chugged a beer to determine which trike each one would ride. Once each participant had his vehicle, the three-beer, three-lap race officially started when the five competitors, as well as self-appointed race official Bryan “Stork” Welch, drank their second beer. Dan Owens (Filthy Gorgeous) was declared the winner in a photo finish, after he stormed past runner-up James Townsend-Butterworth (Sky Fighters), who dogged it to the finish line, believing his victory was already secure. However, James’s efforts should still be commended as his front wheel broke off early in the race, thus requiring the assistance of teammate Chris Shumaker. Although Alex “Coop” Eben Meyer (Bad Touch) finished third, he was soundly booed for his blatant cheating. Erik Price (Mexican Standoff) finished in fourth place, despite jumping out to an early lead. Rob Gorden (Mighty Squirrels) struggled to down his first beer in one gulp and brought up the rear, even with Amy Kovner (Gouging Anklebiters) pushing him from behind. There will be an awards ceremony for the race at the Johnson’s this Sunday evening.
The only item missing from the race was a bullhorn for announcing purposes. Jefferson Hendricks had his sister bring one down from his parents’ house in Albany, but could not resist using his new toy on Saturday evening. It was confiscated by police at 3:00 AM, and he was issued a summons for using a sound production device without a permit.

Mexican Standoff Finally Lets Loose
As a dry practice run for the upcoming courtside party on June 1 (which Jefferson Hendricks is really working hard on), Mexican Standoff threw an open Cinco De Mayo Party on Sunday. Festivities included a “Mustache vs. Non-Mustache” intra-team scrimmage, a chips and salsa station, and a piñata. The action climaxed when Mexican Standoff finally broke open the piñata, splattering candy across the court. However, Trevor “White Jesus” Tyrrell materialized in the nick of time to save the candy from reaching any playing areas. Although the party was a smashing success, there was one casualty: Hendricks’s sneaker. With one half of his playing footwear dangling precariously from a tree, he was forced to play his game with one sneaker and one boot. Since Hendricks scored a goal, maybe he should consider playing this way more often.
