Next is the shuffleboard competition for the "Tom Turkey Plaque". Gary "Meat Inspector" Thurstlic opens the Tom Turkey Shuffleboard Tournament with the Pledge of Allegience while Greg "Barfy" Nolte takes a silent moment in prayer? Geeeze, they ARE serious!

A hefty competition is about to take place....

This year we started the Bar Trek at the Burning Barrel Tavern, formally the Twin Pines Tavern.  The name changed shortly after it was renovated and it has become the home of our yearly shuffleboard competition for the coveted Tom Turkey Award.



Sam "Precious" Volpone set a single game record scoring 23 points! Too bad his team mate Chuck "Cruise Director" Carter gave up 25 to the other "winning" team. UGH.... Is Bob "Papa Duke" having a senior moment?

Standing behind Sam "Precious" Volpone is John "Instant Replay" Bielicki.  John ran the Tom Turkey Tournament for us this year and did a super job except for one tiny problem.  He added the scores up wrong in one of the games and declared a winner.  After reviewing the totals, he called to the teams back up to continue.  The outcome ended differently the second time.  Hence the nickname, "Instant Replay".

Typical behavior while on the Bar Trek...everyone faces a different direction and talks at the same time.  Who says Ass.Men can't multi-task?



Larry "Dr. Proctor" :Hobdell used his entire arm to clear the table wax when he shoots. The sweaty barren area he creates will stop a puck like tar! Craig "Daddy Ding-Ding" Hobdell shows a kid how to slide a puck 3 inches.

The "Hobbles" drew each other as partners this year and made a serious run at the trophy.

Craig "Daddy Ding-Ding" Hobdell gave this mountain kid Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's phone number to see if they would adopt him.  Rumor has it the kid was looking for his "Mountain Daddy"? 



Brian "Bull Frog" Neely pauses to fart prior to his shot. All that remained of the guys behind him were outlines on the wall. Somebody call the cops! Darts will become a new competition on next year's trip.

When is the last time Brian ate pork chops?  Wow, that took 4 days to bubble through!

Is Bob "Mama Duke" Robinson standing on his toes?  Those ballet lessons are really paying off, huh?



Craig "Daddy Ding-Ding" Hobdell looks on as Jeff "Ankle Biter" Roberts and Rob "Soup" Robinson take pictures of each other. What are they focusing on? YO! What? No Willie Nelson? Gadzooks!!!

Thanks to digital cameras brought by 3 rafters, we took nearly a thousand pictures this year!

Beer, friends, beer, cigars, beer, music, beer and mo beer....



Disturbing to say the least! Mike "Hobeen" Green and Greg "Barfy" Nolte win the Tom Turkey Award.

Gary "Meat Inspector" Thurstlic and Chuck "Cruise Director" Carter talk about football, hunting and other manly sports....

It was a very tough double elimination format this year. 



Vince "Don Vito" Margera joins us for a group shot. Everyone had cigars, even the critters!

Vince "Don Vito" Margera drives up to spend the last night with us on most of the trips.  The town of Wellsboro always knows when he is in town.  Yeeehaaaaaaaaa!  YOOOOOOO!

You know..... his ass is hanging out on the other side of the wall in the kitchen!
