June 9, 2006
Harrisburg, PA
Schedule (not sure on the exact order here)
Participants
David (10th), Marc (10th), Eugene (9th), Mehr (9th), Span (8th)
Breakfast
It was at the Old Country Buffet. I feel it didn't go well as we all woke up late and we got to the buffet late, so they started to bring out the lunch food and thus putting away most the breakfast ideas. Next time in Harrisburg, PA Perkins would be the Correction or better place of Breakfast, since Breakfast is 24 hours there, and they have a nice menu for breakfast.
Lunch
I feel it went well, as Subway/Wendy's/Arbys are all within walking distance of each other. So everyone was able to eat what they wanted. We brought the food back to my house and eat it on the Deck. I feel that went well.
Dinner
Olive Garden. Olive Garden always goes well. Since it is close to my house it worked out well.
Pool
I feel this event went the worst. Basically it took too long, too many people where waiting around. Here is how it went.
Overall Record
Span 1-3
Marc 1-3
Eugene 2-2
Dave 3-1
Mehr 3-1
Everyone played each other.
Marc Beat Span
Span Beat Mehr
Mehr Beat Dave
Eugene beat Span and Marc
In the play-offs Dave and Mehr Meet in the Championship Game, with Mehr winning with home court advantage. Next time, maybe a shot-clock to speed up the games, and have a time-limit on the games, most balls in win. This way it won't take forever. As Pool taking so long cost us the chance of playing poker.
Bowling
With Five we did two vs. Three. Overall Average took the title. The bowling ally worked well, as it was died when we went. Teams where Span and Mehr vs. Dave, Marc, and Eugene. The first game was a warm up, as we where all trying to see who should be seeded and how we should do the scoring. Basically Mehr and Span won, Mehr got the best score in the final game, but the big shock was Span for the first time ever scored in the 100s, well he got 100 exactly. Beating a couple of bowlers ensuring a title at MBBB 10.
Soccer
We just kept changing teams 2 vs. 2 with an Auto Goalie. I feel it went well with two on two, but it was very tirering. I wouldn't mind doing this again, as everyone seemed to have a good time.
Volleyball
I feel this even went very well. As it was 2 vs. 3, but since we where playing on blacktop, moving around to get to the ball was much easier then on sand. I feel if we do MBBB in harrisburg again this event should be a must as the park was free and within 2 miles of my house. We played a couple of games with Eugene and Mehr playing Marc, David and Span. The games where close but Eugene and Mehr seemed to sneak away with two close victories.
