Mike (right) with his WWE Wrestlemania growl... so happy to get his first 14 - 0 game.

90 minutes long whichever came first. The two in-between breaks were 15 minutes each.
Many thanks to the captains for filling out the scoring summary sheets for all 3 games.
One of the "For Stats Only' teams Jump & Wave won both the most bulleyes and most
hang jacks awards. This format is fair and really works for all teams.
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE DAY
There were so many exciting and memorable moments. Here are just a few.
- The Professor playing with the President's bald head and saying,"It takes a bald head
man (just like me) to run this organization the way it should be run. It has been one of
the most successful andenjoyable season ever. Everything is looking so encouraging.
I feel like bringing back Aces next year."
- Many sentiments were echoed about this year's Champion of Champions tournament.
The vast majority of players found it to be very organized and well run. There were no
idle teams this time. This used to be the killing factor in running this tournament in past
years. Kudos to the executive committee members for doing such a great job.
- Both Ashook and Wayne Sankar provided us with free entertainment. Ashook sang
'Hum Na Jaane, Kuch Na Bol' everytime he hung Glenn or Terry's jacks. Ashook would
then give us his famous wine. However, when ICCA played One Family in the 'A' finals,
Wayne would imitate Ashook's wine and famous line of 'Dis side, dat side, etc.
" whenever he won. Everything was done in clean fun. The whole hall was in an uproar
every time this was done.
