Ace & Gary Steal The Show

Preamble:

364 days ago YHC had a dream, a vision if you will. That all pax attending the 10.31.2024 Halloween BD at the Rubicon would come adorned in their favorite costumes. There would be joy, there would be laughter and there would be pain as usual.

Welp, the latter was certainly achieved….but we’ll have to shoot for next year being 100 % participation in the costume dept!!

14 pax posted for this year’s Halloween BD and boy were there some characters in the crowd. Thank goodness we had those two blue superheros with us just in case any ghouls or goblins were out and about in the Wills Park wilderness.

Warm-O-Rama:

After the pretty poor disclaimer was given by yours truly, in true character form as Dadgum Jackalope, YHC gathered all my sippy cups and water bottle for the mosey to the Cheese-Grater for the warm-up.

Rocking Paula Abdul as the pax ran, YHC was trying to find the right snarky comments that Jackalope would say. BUT, there’s a reason there’s only one Jackalope….this morning YHC was just a part of the “Jackalope Staff”.

The usual was performed among the giggles and laughter…..those boys Ace & Gary were in sync right from the get go. As if they’d practiced their moves at other functions or something (more on that later).

The Thang:

See the picture of the musical board of pain. Coupons did have to be fetched at the start of Thriller….

Again, lots of laughs throughout the morning and YHC was not going to miss out on some photo opps of Miller Time ….(I mean Lumbergh dressed as MT) gawking at the superhero’s moves or just perplexed by their ambition of staying in character 😉

After the BOP, the pax did a double line Indian Run led by Ace & Gary…..who are we kidding, they were of course in the same line together and would’ve been all by themselves if the Q hadn’t taken charge. Annnnnnnddddd after turning into the parking lot, there were a couple of our female counterparts that could not stop staring at us for some reason. Then YHC remembered his outfit and of course everyone else’s….

COT:

• Prayers for YHC’s M’s close friend from back home and praise that initial reports are positive.
• Prayers for safety for all those celebrating Halloween and Diwali tonight.

Naked-Man Moleskin:

Shout out to Schnitzel for 2nd Rubicon beat down in a row and great to have you out!

Big props to those who dressed up and those that didn’t only had to perform 5 burpees before the warm-up so took it easy on them.

• Costume Champs definitely Cookie/Milli Vanilli as Ace & Gary from the Ambiguously Gay Duo.

Followed by (in no particular order):

• Dosido – Woody (the cowboy, not that boner of a fellow from BA)
• Lumbergh – Miller Time with pickle ball moves and all!
• No-See-Um – Dadgum Jackalope
• Lefty – Michaelangelo (TMNT)
• Focker – Dinosaur blow-up
• Lil Hurt – a Minion (or maybe just a big ass snow boarder)

I believe that next Halloween, Ace & Gary need to Co-Q the Halloween BD!!!
