KICK THE RED NOSED REINDEER

Sunday December 25
by Jessecka

Christmas day dawned fair and cool. Everyone had almost enough of that jolly ole fat guy and his prancy little deer, so I rounded up a few fellow grumpies, and we had a wonderful game of Kick the Red Nosed Reindeer!! We started with 4 players, Kella, Fancy, Gwaptiva and Valkar, and we had countless viewers to join us on the Kick Channel.

Round One began with a frenzy of disgruntled coal recipients chasing after the elusive Rudolph, played by our secret guest. Just why is his nose red anyway? Cold? Drunk? Ah, but back to round one. Kella beat everyone out of the gate, but Fancy was the one to land the first kicks.... 11 in all, halfway through the first round. As the clock ran down, Gwaptiva finally scored a kick, after passing the deer by on several LPs, and kicking into thin air. The round ended with Fancy with 11 kicks, Gwaptiva 1 kick.

Your comm unit relays a message from Jessecka, "I think Rudolph's hiney is shiney now!!"

Kella blowed everyone away from the starting line yet again at the begining of Round Two. Almost immediately she scored 2 kicks, while Rudolph was looking the other way I think. Fancy scored 1 kick, before Kella slammed it to the Red Nosed Menace with a can-aching 6 kicks. Fancy and Kella then began to trade off kicking the deer, almost bouncing from one to the other. In the middle of the can-kicking frenzy, Gwaptiva scored another kick! The Second Round ended with Gwaptiva scoring 1 kick, Fancy scoring 5 kicks, and Kella scoring 10 kicks.

Gwaptiva says, "raindeer: A Seattle Moose"
Gwaptiva groans at his own bad pun.

The Final Round started, and as we all know, it was still anyone's game. Kella beat everyone out of the bar yet again, totally dominating the field off the starting line. Fast as she was though, Fancy was the first to score in the final round, with 2 kicks in a fairly short amount of time. Reduced to running blindly across Sol, Rudolph tried his best to keep his rump from becoming as red as his nose! It was almost as if Fancy had gotten a double dose of coal from that naughty fat man and his little deer, the way he hunted down Rudolph, kicking him another 6 times, with Kella squeezing in a kick in between. Gwaptiva got another kick in as well, followed by several from Kella, and even another from Fancy. Right before the Timer went off, Kella scored another 3 kicks, bringing out final round totals to Gwaptiva 1 kick, Kella with 6 kicks, and Fancy with 11.

Our final scores were Gwaptiva in third place with 3 kicks, Kella is second place with 16 kicks, and our big winner for the day was Fancy with a can-warming 25 kicks! A special thanks goes out to our Rudolph for the day, Icey! Thanks for you a good sport! And thanks to everyone who came out and made the game fun!

Kick the Can is played on alternating Sundays at 4.00pm eastern.
