Love Was All Around

Our Summer of Love theme night turned into a spectacle when Kay “Light My Fire” Missin nearly burned down the backboards. Kay was hot, hot, hot rolling a nearly perfect game with every frame. Coached by Captain Conor, Kay, with teammates,  June and Cris, holding the south end for Deboccery together took an early lead against The Holy Rollers. Second year player June Weaver rolled like an MVP destroying any scoring opportunity while  the Rollers’ Lori and Jim Woodcock turned “A Whiter Shade of Pale”. When Roller’s Captain Carol called out to the heavens for mercy, there was “Dancing in the Street” as Coates and Carl managed to bring the score even and finally win by one point. Holy Rollers 12, Deboccery 11

When the Rolling Stones took the stage facing off Cozzie and the Hot Rollers, Captain Chris was down two players, so he strategically pulled in “I’m a Man” Daniel Boone to join bandmates, Degiere and Leon. Captain Carla, along with rookie Gail and Kelly played like they were “Happy Together” but it was Rich Weaver who was “Somebody To Love” as he fielded point after point for the Cozzie’s. It was “Up, Up and Away” as Boone, Leslie, Jim and Cattich scored the Stones’ second victory this season. Rolling Stones 12, Cozzie and the Hot Rollers 8

The nights final match, was an exhibition by Barb Kutschinski of “Groovin”. With only Clay and Barb, Game of Throwns was down three players and “For What it’s Worth” wisely tapped league favorite Jim Leon as substitute. Barb, Clay and Jim couldn’t go wrong against Labor Force with Captain Ted, Jack, Rupert and “White Rabbit” killer Daniel Boone playing sub for the second time. Labor Force lost their second game of the season and really need to “Get Together” if they are aiming for the playoffs. Game of Throwns 12, Labor Force 5

Thanks to everyone and the Electric Kool-aid for a night that might be described as a “Purple Haze”. Per several requests, the evening’s 1967 Playlist follows:
