Centurion BallOfSpray Cash Prize at Aquaplex October - 1st & 2nd

[Horton]

Bell Acqua was a HUGE success and now it is time to move our attention to Aquaplex.

 

Keith Albritton sent in his entry last week. Where is yours? The event is only a few weeks away. If you want to play in the game you have to enter.

 

If you entered online but did not pay online you need to get ahold of me ASAP. It looks like the event could fill and I will take the first 40 PAID entries.

[skidawg]

Landrie and I are in, I will PayPal funds this week

[ForrestGump]

I'm not going to be able to ski. But Blondie and I are going to try and show up. I owe it to my fans.

[Horton]

@luzz ? Where are you man?

 

@TFin I know you are in but darn it get me an entry

 

@MrJones :(

 

@jdarwin I know your excuse and do not like it one bit

 

@usaski1 I know you will be there where is your entry?

 

Anyone coming from Baton Rouge?

 

@Chris Rossi I think I owe you a few beers. There is no better place for you collect.

 

@Brooks You have nothing else to do. Wait no never mind. You have plenty to do.

 

@teammalibu come on down

 

@ToddL If you do not enter this week I will ban you for life

 

@Rico just tell Fiona it is a business trip - tell work it is a trip with your wife. What could go wrong.

 

@Colebrah I swear you will run 2 @ 47 off if you come to Austin

 

@bishop8950 Don't tell me you are going to West Palm that weekend.

 

@savaiusini an HO employee should see this

 

@skidawg call Greenwood!

 

@DumbAss Call the Houston boys and tell them to get down there

[ColeGiacopuzzi]

2 @ 47 off is so tempting! @Horton

[RazorRoss3]

You have mine. The way I'm skiing I might even make the head to head this year... as the 16th seed, but still would be fun.

[MattP]

I'm entered. Had a blast last year. I'm planning a few days off work to ski in Austin before the event, see Austin possibly some ACL and see some of my local friends. Should be another awesome event!

 

@DumbAss are you bringing the BEER?

[Horton]

@DumbAss "IS" beer

[aupatking]

Last minute work plan change might get me there. I've got to get 2 tournaments in the next 2 weeks. Maybe I'll get 3 in 3

[ToddL]

Is the Online Payment Option (PayPal) acceptable or checks only???

[ToddL]

The answer is: Yes. Done.

[ToddL]

FYI - @MattL will not be competing this year, so that's one more prize money spot open to the rest of the field. Matt tweaked his knee at the last tournament going for a new tourny PB (out the front in a major way). Also, his rock band booked a gig that Saturday.

[Horton]

@ToddL what about the boy?

[ToddL]

See above comment, @Horton.

[Luzz]

@Horton work conference, pretty sure I told you a few weeks back. Sorry bud

[Horton]

@luzz Noooooooooooooooooooooo Nooooooooooooooo Noooooooo

 

Now who will keep @skiep out of jail?

[skiep]

Luzz he does have a point!

@usaski1 thanks man

[jdarwin]

@Horton - there is only one thing I love more than you.....LSU football. No, actually there are about two dozen things I love more than you....make that 3 dozen...

 

The way I'm skiing, this would've been the perfect year. Next year for certain!!

[Razorskier1]

@jdarwin -- don't wait until the last minute -- start sandbagging those scores as soon as possible!

[Horton]

@jdarwin sandbag all you want. You still have to perform in that one round to make money

[Horton]

There are a few spots left. Don't miss it!

[brettmainer]

@Dirt may sign up just to sit in a tower when Horton skis.

[skidawg]

I will take care of @Horton when he skis, at least he won't freeze to death when he gets iced

[Horton]

@skidawg I control the Cash Prize

[skidawg]

@horton must have had a good ski ride last night, delusions of grandure

[gregy]

@horton how's the event planned. I'm scheduled to work that weekend. I'm good for Saturday, Sunday not sure.

[Horton]

Two rounds of prelim Saturday. Best 16 skiers will go to a head to head and the remaining skiers will get a one round handicap final on Sunday.

 

On Sunday the Handicap will go first and if you need to be first off the dock so you can get to work I am sure we can make that happen. (no one else wants to be first anyway)

[Horton]

I did a preliminary running order and projected head-to-head today. It's going to be a doozy!

[Razorskier1]

Friday practice? Timing?

[Horton]

@Razorskier1

Yes and actual times

[Horton]

Wait seriously? I think we said noon to 6 p.m.

[MAD11]

Noon to 6 is fine. We will make whatever people need work. I get back from SA Thursday morning so will be spending Thursday afternoon and Friday setting up.

[Horton]

My advice to all the competitors who think they will make the head 2 head is to bring lots of beer for Saturday night. You gotta get @skidawg and @Tfin destroyed if you're going to beat them on Sunday. It is tricky with @tfin because he's Canadian but @skidawg is a lightweight and cannot say no to a good IPA.

[skidawg]

My wife and daughter will be on sight so I will have to be on my best behavior!

[Horton]

Boooo boooo boooo

[Horton]

[MattP]

[skidawg]

@DumbAss drinks girl beer!

[Horton]

@skidawg and he drinks ALL of it

[ToddL]

All, we've had a bit of a cool front come through Central Texas. Highs will be in the mid/lower 80's, and lows will be near 60. Our lakes' water temps were in the 90's but will likely drop to upper 70's to low 80's. Wind forecasts are not always reliable, but suggest winds under 10 mph out of the north on Fri/Sat, moving back to the preferred SE winds sometime on Saturday and continuing so on Sunday.

 

Forecast

[matt_b]

@richarddoane not this time! I do much better when I stick to beer!
