Football Crab Racing- Folkie’s 9/16

Hoy Hoy!!
Greetings from Casa dos Gatos and welcome back to Mayberry. Hope your gig in Massachusetts went smoothly. Everything’s seems to be going swell here. That’s usually when the wheels fall off. We’ll see.

Another classic Folkie’s crowd. There are different types of Crab Crowds. The classic Three Kings crowd is large, loud, and about halfway paying attention, but always a blast. The classic Folkie’s crowd tends to fall short of a sellout, but makes up for it with intensity and enthusiasm, and as in Hoagland, always a blast. I’ll try to sneak a couple of vids into this post to illustrate my point.

You can tell summer is over, the top six teams in the Folkie’s Crab are with us to begin the stretch drive in the 2009 Crab Racing Season. Pete’s back after a summer of riding. He’s joined by his compadres from SRL. The two Hinksters are here, as well as the Crabby Young Pharts, Crustacean Sensations, Screamin’ Seamen, Tighter Than A Banjo String Racing, Folkie’s Fockers, and the good doctors of the American Association of Amateur Gynecologists. Steve Schrader is your lovely host. Ricky Four Inch is behind the Bar. Thursday Night Shane is in the Kitchen and Rhonda is back on the floor, SERVING US ALL!!!!! I think I saw Hank out back, would somebody get him and tell him it’s time for-

Technically, there was only one Top Five Crab in the Finals, the resurgent Super Folkie. Although the #89 Crab is actually the renumbered Fifth Place Crab, #84. I’ve done some research and in the recorded history (the past two years) of Crab Racing, the winner of Race 16 has made the Finals five times. Tonite was the sixth time, and the first time that that Crab went on to win First place. That means that Tallywhacker Toucher lost 15 races before winning the last Preliminary, the last Semi-Final, and the Finals, the next three races she ran in. A feat that shall in the future be dubbed a Tallywhack. Good on ya Darlin’, well done.

The Crabs return to Folkie’s for a rare “Blue Moon” show (three shows in one month) on September 30th. Nearly forgot to mention Super Folkie took Second Place, so we’ll be racing for a $50 First Place prize. remember, pick ’em at 7:30, race ’em at 8:00. Until then, he’s Sonny Starr.

Ciao for nao
