Each game gave it her best. Old favorites like Omaha faded in the stretch. Newcomers like Grec-Oid made a run for the petunias. 7/27 got Moosecocked (Speaking of which, I received the following press release from Carter Smith this morning regarding a May 16 event at the UU's Common Ground Coffeehouse' "THE FALCON RIDGE FOLK FESTIVAL PREVIEW SHOW with Blue Moose and the Unbuttoned Zippers..." Is that Dr. Foxman's new boy band? We report; you decide.)
Anyway, the battle between Cincinnati and Hemmorh-Oid was ... well, we don't want to go there. Now it's down to a matchup of the best two games currently on the circuit — Mexoid vs. Mexican Stud — in a standoff some are already comparing to the time that Wolf the Profligate and Stein the Pigheaded drew a combined 23 cards in an epic 7/27 showdown (Peter Arno swept the $3.15 pot, of course, with an Ace, Ace, Five). Speaking of the good professor, all of his yearly grant proposals have been disposed of and he will host at 11 Garland , 8:45 Wednesday.
