BUI – Thursday A: Captain – Snapshot
Doing this write-up exactly a week before the chaos of Bopo IX begins in a week (typing them up and emailing them to Hungus 24 hours before). 4 Mooseheads deep so seems like the right time. A snowstorm is blowing outside and yet Bopoers are taking up seven lanes with their antics. BUI began back in 2012 made up of a random assortment of leaguers from Casco and Portsports. We came in to the league alongside some big teams that you may have heard of such as Back in Black, Yay!, Turkey Club, and Guns of Brighton.
Teammates have left for a variety of reasons: Duchess to rule an island in the South Pacific, Lucky Bastard off to Monaco to run the craps tables, Pin Diesal to pursue his MMA career, Scarbelley defecting to run Portsports bowling at Easy Day, and most recently Prancer escaping to the West coast after being ignored in the write-ups for the 100th time.
That brings us to our current roster
Happy Feet Pete – original member, the Casco Bay and Practice all star who seems to lose his mojo come game time
Hexy – Mom of the team (literally and figuratively) Found on the lanes at all hours and in all leagues
Duke Thunderwood – Hustled his way into a job in the kitchen to snag free games and skyrocket his average to make him our #1
Animal – New addition to the team snagged from The Nutz, brings the party to the team
G-Unit – Another Cascobay convert. Keeps out competitive side fresh and also willing to remind me when his average is above mine
and finally me, Snapshot – 2014 draft champ, Captain, and frequently found drinking at the bar or relaxing on the patio
And that’s BUI, we frequently win games we should lose and lose games we should win. Either way we have a blast doing it and wouldn’t have it any other way.
Guacabowle – Thursday A: Captain – Sparetime
Creating a great recipe takes practice, patience and the perfect balance of ingredients. Last year we added a dash of Salt n’ Pepper, and this year we welcome Ruby Canary to the mix. Add these two ingredients to a bowl already full of Red Onion, Cilantro, Bonita and Sparetime – you get the best batch of Guacabowle yet. See you on the lanes Thursday night. Don’t forget the tequila.
Fuckin Chuckits – Thursday B: Captain – Ramrod
Celebrating a rich BoPo history woven from nearly a decade of Lederhosen, big puns and plunger parades, The Newly Named but Same Old Faced Fuckin’ Chuck-its return for a landmark Sweet ’16!
