Week 11 News and Notes
What The Hell Is Andrea Doing On the Left Side?
Jim Dandeneau Didn’t Even Get The Chance To Be Booed Off The Stage
This year’s Sharif Corinaldi Hot Legs Competition featured the largest entrant pool in the event’s short history. Without previous champions, Sharif “The Chocolate Buzzsaw” Corinaldi and Minkus competing, there was no clear favorite among the pack. However, despite the plethora of particpants, the contest quickly whittled down to three finalists: Jason “The Hamburglar” Rosenstock (Mexican Standoff), James Townsend-Butterworth (Sky Fighters), and Ali Chenitz (LBS, Inc.). As clothes continued to be shed, and beer continued to be poured, one competitor rose above the others. Rosenstock recognized his boyhood dream, as he was declared the winner by the boisterous crowd. As per tradition, bartender Brent Smith “presented” Rosenstock with a victory cupcake.
What’s Supposed To Go In There, Amy?
With hosts Phil “Sandy” Donohue and Craig “Ug” LaCombe presiding over the festivities, the Third Annual Johnsons Olympics was a tremendous success. Although the Hot Legs Competition remains the premiere event of the games, the undercard contained several highlights as well. Here are the winners and some event notes:
Over The Top Arm Wrestling Tourney: Dave Ladanyi (Tuques) and Amy Kovner (Gouging Anklebiters)…Although Amy is the recognized (two-time) female champion of BTSH, she was later defeated in a non-title match by bartender Lindsey.
Hot Dog Eating Contest: Dan Owens (Filthy Gorgeous)…Monica Russo correctly predicted this victory several days prior to the competition.
Sascha Puritz Memorial PBR Chugging Contest: Corlears Hookers (1 minute, 2 seconds)…Shockingly, the masses responded to the winners with a round of boos.
Bar Napkin Love Poem: Amy Lott (Sky Fighters)…Amy spoke from her heart, and the crowd appreciated it.
50/50 Raffle: Reilly “Fake Dutch” Olson (Corlears Hookers)…The raffle raised a few hundred dollars for Kelly Buchanan. Thanks to all who entered.
Pool Shark Tourney: Discontinued…Zach “Cryme Tyme” Weiner is disappointed that this event ended prematurely, as he actually won his first round game.

Down the Road: Tuques captain Dave Ladanyi trades Sarah to the Corlears Hookers in a devious plot for her to infiltrate their ranks and bring Dutch and Dutch’s Brother back to the Tuques. After four seasons and two championships with the Hookers, she finally succeeds. The new and improved Tuques do not advance past the first round, even with the newly formed “Wisconsin Line”.
Captains’ Commendations
Bad Touch: Shannon Roddy and Jane Cramer played the whole game and did a great job.

Mad Dog: Kat had her first assist of the season.
Media: And what’s her last name?
Mad Dog: Ummm…I’m not sure… You know what? I don’t want to give you anything serious, so we’ll go with Rod, because he got his equipment on by the start of the game.
