Balls to the StoneWall

We don't even know where to begin about the shit show that was the end of the season party for BAD! on Monday night at Stonewall. There was dancing, there was hula hooping, there was making out, there were awards, there were shirtless boys, there was beer pong, there were rubber balls pelting people in the face, and there was a whole lotta drinking. BAD! celebrated the end of the season as only they knew how to by drinking the place dry!

The night started out innocently enough. Mixing and mingling for the happy hour special, noshing on some catered food, and flirting up a storm. Poppi and Niki served as the hostesses with the mostesses by MC'ing the Trophies (#1st for Gym Bar, #1st for Eastern Bloc for winning tournament), MVP's, and the "fun awards".

You wonder what the "fun" entails? Some of our favorites included the biggest flirts going to Scotty and Ruby, best hidden talent going to Mikey for his amazing, um, skill, best six pack going to Ken, most likely to have team orgy going to WOOF!, and our personal favorite most likely to end up on gossipgays going to one of our favorite newbies Carrie 2.0. Although our favorite line from Poppi was her commenting on Esther's new haircut. We knew you were the funniest person in BAD!

We know those dodgeballers like to throw balls at each other when they are the Tony Dapolito Center, but god, can't you stop throwing them at each other when you are at the after parties? We narrowly avoided our death from all the little red stress balls that were being torpedoed at our faces after the awards (great idea Niki!). While we know everyone in the league has more than a little stress and aggression, perhaps next season we can think of a less dangerous way to take care of this?

We know the night might get a little hazy from this point on for some of the dodgeballers, but we saw Mikey and Mr. Wind, Carrie 2.0 and Danny, Carrie 2.0 and Scotty, Vat and Craig the ref getting quite friendly. We saw Ruby dirty dancing her pretty little heart out with various boys and girls. We gasped at the shirtless hotness that was Leven, Mr. Wind, and Cutrone. Although nothing in the night could quite top the "Thriller" dance performed by Shane, Vat, and a mystery cutie. We are still shaking the glitter our of our hair.

We have give the drag queen downstairs some credit where credit was due. She got the league's resident straight boy Kelly to take off his shirt for a shot. Every time we go to Stonewall, she harasses all of the boys, and usually she gets one to crack under pressure. We are happy she saved the best for last. We saw Gilbride and Erika in deep discussions downstairs either having a heart to heart or plotting away (we believe in the latter), and it was about that time the party started to move on to the after after party at Eastern Bloc.

A good chunk of the dodgeball crew headed from the west to the east and got their karaoke on. It was rip-roaring good time of a night. We saw a lot of familiar faces, hula hooped with the best of them, and eventually called out sick on Tuesday as anticipated. We have to say we might shed a tear next Monday when we have no one to play flip cup with, but alas fall is right around the corner. But let's be honest, our livers would break up with us if we continued to abuse it the way we have this spring, and god knows we need them for next season. xoxo

Pour Some Stripper On Me

Monday night started out normal enough. At the Tony Dapolito Center Gym Bar continues to dominate the league, and since it's getting towards the end of the season, it looks like they could pull off being first place in the league. That is if Pieces or Bamboo 52 doesn't knock them off their pedestal. With only two weeks left of regular play before the tournament, the dodgeball season is winding down and the heat is on. Can we also just mention we are not loving the fact that there aren't enough balls, what's the deal??

The league slowly made it's way over to Henrietta Hudson's in the rain for some drinking. There was pizza to be had, and since it was 4/20 we saw some glazed eyes and very hungry dodgeballers make their way to the food. We also saw a raging game of flip cup starting so naturally we were excited. We also saw Ruby tearing it up on the pool table, and we approve of her tactics to distract the other team when they were shooting, show some skin!

What do you know, put on a trashy 80's rock song, and the bar turns into Rock of Love: Tour Bus. The 80's song in question was Pour Some Sugar on Me, and we swear no poles were harmed in this dance-off. Dom started off the dancing, was joined by Carrie 2.0 and Mikey who promptly gave him a run for his money in pole dancing. We can't say we are surprised the pole made it's comeback, but we were surprised there was no stripping accompanying the dancing.


The dancing didn't stop there. Dom brought some much needed attention to the cage and Niki and Ruby quickly made sure it was well used. With the girls basically ruling the front and the boys chilling in the back, it was great to bring everyone together no matter how it got done. We thought, well nothing can top this, but we were oh so wrong.

Paul the Commissioner pulled a jump rope out of nowhere and with the help of Monica and Leven got an old fashioned jump rope hoedown right in the middle of the bar. Who does that? It slowly went morphed into a crazy 8th grade party and everyone started doing the limbo. It showed just how low some people can actually get, and from the looks of it some of those dodgeballers (and Flo-Rida) know how to get low.

All in all, quite the crazy night. We are actually sad it's going to be ending soon, just 3 weeks left of dodgeball, drinks, and debauchery. We are sure next week at Gym Bar will be insane, but there is nothing like a crazy night at good ol' Hen's. She's like that wild trick you keep in your phone, and sometimes you forget they are there, but when you go back you realize there was a reason you only go back every so often. xoxo
