21 men donned their duds for the most epic beatdown Flirtin’ With Disaster has ever seen on Halloween…..ok, maybe it’s this AO’s first Halloween….but it was still epic. YHC was a bit worried about how many would show up in costume, since not everyone is on GroupMe, but the PAX didn’t disappoint at all!
Grown men in full costume gathered at the FWD Shovel Flag to ogle at each other. YHC brought a a few extra costumes for those that “forgot” to wear their own….suckers. Princess Leah (Flacco) was in charge of the Halloween portal music, and he came through like a champ! Just as we were about to start, what appeared like an FNG literally came out of the dark woods looking straight outta Deliverance (cut off jorts, awkward askew gait, slightly hunched, aslanted head, mouth agape, messed up teeth, etc….you get the picture). Dude couldn’t barely talk a lick—-mumbled something about “cudhe” join us. Ummm…sure.
Jog around the FWD mini circle and to the other FWD bigger circle where the #FWDbigballs are located. There in the darkness….was the F3 Jack-o-Lantern…all lit up in it’s awesomeness. We gawked in awe and circled up for a warm-up. It was time to get #ScaryStrong !!!

Count-O-Rama: count-a-rama went well until we got to Billy Ray Deliverance guy (Khakis), who just cocked his head and stared into space. There were 20 or 21 of us. Name-O-Rama: was interesting, with several men giving the name of their character, etc. (i.e.: Klemson Tiger (Pierogi) age 7-1, Nature Boy (Hello Kitty) with a whooooo!, etc…). Again Deliverance guy just mumbled something unintelligible with his big bucked teeth.
