I Was Nearly Taken Out By A Cleaning Crew Last Night
Last night we had our case race on The Yak to celebrate our guy Lil Sasquatch's 21st birthday. It had been in the works for months and was a very fun event. I'm 36-years old now. I am married and have two young kids. It was going to be a late night filled with a lot of beer, so I got a hotel for the night in the city. My wife wished me well and told me to just 'be careful'. I figured she was talking about the beer, so I made sure to pace myself accordingly and not get too sloppy.
One of the rules we instituted was a 2-minute pee break that would be activated by one of the teams calling a timeout. So we're talking a maximum of five pee breaks for the whole case race. Each one was precious once you broke the seal, so you had to hurry. During a surprise timeout, everyone scattered to the nearby bathrooms. Unfortunately, I wasn't aware the cleaning crew had just mopped the very hallway I was about to rush down. From there, you could imagine how things unfolded. I edited it to have the legendary Jim Ross call my spill.
In the end, it was all worth it and it turned out to be probably my favorite show we've ever done. Check out the full show here:
