I missed the third game of the hockey tournament I mentioned yesterday due to the annual Flipcup’alooza flipcup tournament and party. You may remember this party from many years before. This time was a little different from past years, as Kim didn’t attend. Obviously she couldn’t play in the tournament, and she decided to skip the drinking centered event altogether. The guys on our team remained the same as last year: myself along with our friends Ken and Pulli. We relied on Ken to provide some girls for our team, and he did eventually come through, even though one participant didn’t show up until a minute or two before the games started. I guess that was better than last year, when we pulled a random out of the bar to join our team.
Despite some changes, the results were much the same for our team as years past. The tournament was setup as a round-robin style at one of sixteen tables. At each table there were five teams all competing for a single spot in the sweet sixteen elimination style bracket. My team, Sunday Morning, started off with a couple of losses right away. We did eventually win our third game, but were quickly back to losing the fourth. We finished 1-3 in the round-robin with no chance of advancing through to the next round. Despite the results, we had a good time with many of our friends from Denver.
