YHC had a chance to Q this morning in SoFl. Solid group of dudes. They write BBs slightly differently, name FNGs on Day 2, and carry coupons when everywhere. And, these guys push themselves in some brutally humid conditions. Enjoy the BB.
Backblast: UpChuck
Date: 2025-08-07
Time: 05:30
Where: #ao-the-possum
Q: UpChuck (Tim)
PAX: Apehangers , 5K , Starbucks , Pre-blast (DR), 007 (DR), Sandbag, UpChuck (Tim)
Coupons: Technically, yes, but, meh.
Six, ahem, seven, men of action threw off the lure of the Fart Sack in the latest edition of The Angry Possum. Conditions remained 70 and sunny. According to the burping frogs and local legend, the following quite possibly happened.
Note: YHC is including the names of some F3 Hall of Famers who taught YHC these evolutions. Where YHC miscredits the person, YHC apologizes.
Slow-sey around the parking lot. Circle up for the COP. 100 SSHs (thank you to Starbucks for the welcoming smiles while counting with YHC). Dead Man Hang, right leg high, left leg high, pigeon R, pigeon L, cherry pickers, hill billies, copperhead squats, flutter kicks, and some guys did some weird bent knee thing that looked like a flopping fish.
Touch-a-Tree (@hardywood): Partner up. Rounds of 10, 8, 6, 4, and 2. You run and touch the appropriate number of trees. Your partner does an exercise until you come back, or, if your partner is Sandbag (our FNG), time expires. Exercises were reverse crunches (10, 8), hello Dolly (6, 4), and burpees (2). Sandbag is still out there doing the round of 6, we think. (YHC is considering re-naming him “Charlie on the MTA,” after the song by The Kingston Trio. Look it up.)
Parking Space Trio (@chum bucket): 3 merkins, 3 WWIIs, and 3 squats. Optional Pencil Roll (@handshake) between spaces. Any man can call “Leroy Jenkins” (@splinter) at any time during the exercise, and the PAX runs to Winn Dixie. The PAX adopted this enthusiastically. Kudos to @pre-blast for knowing the back story.
Wrap up the Parking Lot Trios, mosey back to the shovel flag, and one round of 20 curls for the girls. Numbers, names, and Starbucks took us out.
Announcements:
Starbucks has the Q this weekend. See Slack for details.
There may be a ride this evening. Pull for strong evaporation between now and 6 p.m.
Welcome, Sandbag! He’s an FNG who has joined the United States Navy! Boot camp starts in a couple of weeks. Thank you for your service, and all the best!
Upchuck spits the bit.
