He’s not that guy from Sports Center, you know, Scott Van Pelt. He’s one of three gents in town from the Sun Belt, ditching the swelt. Three figures escaping triple figures, stepping’ into our ‘confines’ for a little ‘paddle melt at the SK Corral.’ Frank it is, along with Barry, and Dennis (featured in the archives) escaped the desert land of Sun City to venture to Sunset Knoll where the thermometer and hygrometer stride along in lock step. Glad to hear from the trio that the Octo with the Octane, Ron Cassidy, (The CatsKitty) still has game.
They aren’t the only ones to make a ‘slameo’ appearance. The man from Vlad, actually Cincinnati stopped in last week, just visiting. A 1300ish all-rounder. Recent local additions Al, Mark, and Roger are now part of the mix. Four tables today. Four channel was out a long time ago, and that’s essentially what we had. I’ll vote for three tables.
Speaking of…quadrophobia-claustrophobia. If you suffer from both these disorders you were in deep doo-doo today. Four tables with tight walls. If you were playing doubles and the score was 4-4, you might have been on overload. But the walls were pre-padded by the forward thinking staff at SK.
Not a lot of games where you can walk into a new setting and assimilate so quickly. Table Tennis, a universal language in my eyes.
