8 warriors entered the ring at Rockwood, having bid farewell to Birthday Boy Banksy, Iron PAX Hero Boberry, and demi-God Hardywood heading for The Iron Bridge. Not to be outdone by Poolboy at our newest SOJ AO, the Rock&Roll PAX welcomed TWO FNG’s – Katniss from the DTH pipeline and Swanson who saw a Gomer yard sign at Rockwood 2 weeks ago! Here’s how these fine men conquered the flesh, and YHC was honored with Merlot:
The THANG:
WARMERAMA:
- Moseyrama around the big lot and circle up in the side grass

- KATNISS honored the Q with Spilling Merlot at this point
DEEP DISH INTERMISSION:

NMS: Beautiful morning to lead this fine group of men, and AWESOME to welcome a couple FNG’s to the brotherhood. That’s FOUR FNG’s for SOJ in a single morning! Well done guys!!! FNG Stewart recently brought his firstborn to YHC’s clinic, and was quick to accept the invite to F3 – he’s an absolute natural athlete and will be very quick to put his merlot-spilling days behind him! His nickname comes from being a long-time archer, and our genius Steamer came up with the Hunger Games main character – welcome KATNISS! Our second FNG is AJ who we headlocked a couple weeks ago at Rockwood and testifies to the Gomer yard sign being central in his choice to return. AJ is a lifer student working on his doctorate and does a lot of IT stuff for homeland security. The PAX had a LOT of ideas but we landed on a character from Parks&Rec who hates the government – welcome SWANSON! Keep posting guys. SOJ will continue to achieve addition by division as we grow and split to plant new AO’s. Yours AYE! ~DTH
