Andre, with two really good hitters

Tina isn't backing away from Joy, she's just trying to get away from ANOTHER rocket story from Robbie.

John's back is almost recovered from carrying the Dust Cleats all year

I swear to god, Tina is a saint. Don't know how she does it.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!!! Who invited Jesus?

Double award winners, Dusty Cleats!

What you can't see is Gord's other hand. But Brett sure seems happy.

Hmmmm, explains why I didn't get any mashed potatoes. Nice job Lou!

Timmy Two Beer, Down Town Billy Brown and Donnie The (former) Ump. So nice of Karen to stay past 9pm considering the company!

The Kahuna, understated and blending into the woodwork as usual.

I could have a smart assed comment for Laura, but she actually moved between Danny & Stike on her own accord. You get what you pay for

Those are some happy Dog Catchers!

Not to be outdone, Pistol Pete shows off his new garage door opener.

Well. That shirt looks eerily familiar.

Okay John....enough of leaning into every picture! I had to delete about 50.

Rob and Stephane trying desperately to get Jerry to come out of his shell.

The Rumboldt's....about 5 mins before the break dancing started.

No, Dave's not upset. He's just finishing his aviating wonder....more on that later

Sir Rob and Minnesota Smith enjoying Vivaldi's Concerto

The leader of the Grissles. And Rob.

Steph & Dave. I was a little early on this shot. Moments later, Dave turned and fired the ball at Steph's head. We had drank enough that it was funny as hell.

Aren't the Grisslies fabulous decorators!

This picuture needs not explaination. But I will anyway. Just out of camera range is Sue Farah with a needle and ice. Nice peircing job. Very clean. Butter shots were used to sanitize the wound.

Grisslie sponsor (TTB) and Grisslie's Brain Trust along with Doug and Rob. Big awards on this night!

Robbie with the Nellie! (Apparently does NOT stand for "Naive, Emotional, Lazy, Lively, Innocent, Entertaining)

Doug & Rob with Nellie (he wouldn't let me hold it on my own)

Dave Argue's handywork; as the Grisslie banner literally rose to the rafters as we picked up our Championship trophy!

Rob Farah FINALLY let Sir Rob and Minnesota Smith touch the trophy. But look at the pic behind them on the wall! He still won't leave the poor buggers alone!
