St. Felix took care of the weather, made it cooler, so that no one could make an excuse and BBQ, instead they showed up in droves at the Kapusta Kow Palace. In fact, it was a record setting night, with 4 spares on three teams, that was the most, a Tuesday night ever held. “Where were all these people 25 years ago, when we played a goalie, three out and that was that. We waited for the door to open and another player to come in,” indicated the Turk, while holding back tears, and he added, “This is really something, all these guys, and great guys too,” Turk concluded, with large alligator tears in his eyes.
The three Captains were obviously ready to pick their teams, as the Green Mutants took the night but all the games were tight.

Cribzie at post game press conference indicated, “I thought we had a good team on paper but we played like the Toronto Maple Leafs.”
The three star selection as selected by La Bamba… 3rd star, # 22 Lovie, the second star, # 10 The Matador, and the first star on the night, #32, Hollywood. Who after being selected as first star asked that everyone not eat Russian salad dressing to protest what is still going on in Ukraine.
Tomcats provided some eats, with double smoked, double garlic kielbasa and different cheeses of the world. “So much for making love to my wife tonight, no way she is coming near me with this Garlic breath,” indicated second star Matador.
