thepatriot A Festivus for the Rest of Us!

Date: 2025-12-17
AO: thepatriot
Q: 2 percent
PAX: Bone, Rim Fire, Bob the Builder, Lazlo, CableGuy, Wedding Singer, Piano Man, Shake ‘n’ Bake, Muggins FNGs: 1 Muggins
COUNT: 10
WARMUP: Honkers; SSH; Imperial Walkers; Hill Billy’s; Itty Bitty Arm Circles; Moroccan Nightclubs; Willie Mays Hays; Michael Phelps; Downward Dog; World’s Greatest Stretch.

THE THANG: After the warmup exercises were performed in the most difficult whisper voice ever, QIC was given permission to use his normal obnoxious volume to help the PAX learn the true meaning of Festivus: a non-denominational holiday filled with one sided ridicule and mindless physical tests of strength. Also, there was an aluminum pole. • The tradition of Festivus began with the Airing of Grievances:
The QIC had a lot of problems with a select few PAX, and now they were going to hear about it! The QIC barked the ways in which they had disappointed him over the past year. After each name was read, and an appropriate insult hurled, a burpee was performed collectively by the group. And now as Festivus rolls on, we come to the feats of strength.
• Baseball field walkway – pair up, 1 PAX carries the Festivus pole ~50 yards and back while the other PAX does a high knee skip. Switch exercises at the top. • Remaining PAX performs the following until each team returns: o Mountain Climbers
o Star Jumps
o LBC’s
o Heisman Shuffle
o Football fast feet/Get down’s

• Short mosey to the hand rails for – 3 rounds of Australian merkins(20)/Dips (20) • Mosey to the parking lot for Flying Dutchmen (Forward & Reverse)
• Mosey back to the field for the Festivus Ring of Fire – PAX took turns doing Festivus Pole goblet squats, planks and body weight squats (2 rounds)

MARY: Glute Bridge, Farmer Dan’s (thank you Lazlo), Alabama Prom Dates, Dirty Dog, Nolan Ryans

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Welcome FNG @Muggins! Happy Hour 12/19 5pm Taqueria Poblano, Wreaths Across America pick up 1/10

COT: Traditions are important. Even the silly ones. No matter what holiday you celebrate, real, fictitious, or nothing at all….QIC would like to wish all of you and your families a safe and happy December and a joyous New Year.

horizon-ao Don’t be a Pig

Date: 2025-12-17
AO: horizon-ao
Q: Gherkin
PAX: sticks, Attache’, Kodiak, Disco, Purple Rain
FNGs: None
COUNT: 6
WARM UP
SSH, Hillbillies, M. Phelps, arm circles, cherry picker, WMH, Downdog, World’s Greatest stretch

THE THANG
Don’t be a PIG
• PAX take turns blindly drawing a slip with an exercise & 2 numbers. The high number is the max number of reps of that exercise and the low number is the min number of reps. The actual number is determined by rolling a die.
• Round 1: the PAX who chose the slip rolls a die and deducts that amount from the max number of reps required.
• The HIM can either be a pig and roll again or stop and lead the PAX in that many reps of the exercise. If he rolls again and the die lands on a 6 or 1, the round is over and all PAX perform the max number of exercises. Otherwise, he deducts that amount from the total and chooses to either lead the PAX in the exercise or be a pig and keep rolling.
• Repeat until a 6 or 1 is rolled or you reach the minimum number of reps permitted.

MARY
Flutter kicks, American Hammers, dirty donkeys, LBCs

• Wreathes out wreath cleanup at ANC on January 10.
