Tikipug and others. I was by you during the ball "incident" and watched the spectacle from soup to nuts.

When the older couple started in on you I just had to get my camera going. I thought those pics were the best of all those I took the whole weekend.

The old dude was like a maniac on those balls. He was actually getting up to get balls that did NOT land near him.

Congrats to Pug because he got some good shots in with both un-deflated AND deflated balls too. So the old bag was not the only one getting in the licks.

Honestly, it was obvious that the couple was just sitting there in between the sets while the ball toss occured. I saw others who did not wish to participate just move to the side lines. The ball throwers were very good at stopping the melee when the bands started back up.

One fellow Centralite had a good way to describe the older couple. He said, "Where were obvioulsy out of their element." So profound!

I love Bong's comments that he made sure the big ball went back towards the old guy's head for "an encore."

Welcome to the group Tikipug. I have the original, non-shrunk epics if you want them. Email me at [email protected] if you want them (and that goes for anybody who wants originals from my Tiki Oasis 3 album).

Part of me hates to see things like this when they happen, but in this instance, it was the most comical event of the weekend. I am proud to have chronicled it.
