8/7/10 – MB6: Dimondale, MI

IMPORTANT LINKS FOR ROOKIES:

2010 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS: The 6th annual World Monkeyball Championships scheduled for Saturday, August 7. Once again, we are limited to the first 144 PAID Monkeyballers. Even if you’ve been with us since MB1, your spot isn’t secure until we’ve collected your $10 entry fee.

You’ll also want one of the official MB6 t-shirts for $10.  Graphic designer Casey Frushour has designed a logo with a retro feel for this year’s tournament (at right).  MB gear is always a hot commodity, and the only way you can guarantee getting the MB swag is by preordering before the tournament. A very limited number of shirts will be available the day of the event.

So do this now:

  1. Send me an email (andy@playmonkeyball.com) and tell meyou’re in. And forward this page to your friends.
  2. Tell me how many t-shirts/sizes you need.
  3. Send me $$$ to confirm your place in the tournament. Cash or check is fine, but please note my new address: 108 Windy Rush Ln, DeWitt, MI, 48820. If you have a PayPal account, you can send directly to me at afrushour@gmail.com (THIS IS PREFERRED). Or, if your want to pay by credit card I can email you an invoice via PayPal.

Other pertinent information…

  • Worlds will once again be held at the Old Orchard in Dimondale, Mich., just outside Lansing. This location has been great for the last three events, and we’re expecting more of the same at MB6.  (Address is 3426 N. Michigan Rd.)
  • I will once again be providing beer, but I’m asking for some extra dough from our beer drinkers. Don’t worry, I’m not talking about a lot — just throw a few extra bucks in the hat. (certainly much less than you would spend if you were bringing your own).
  • Pizza will be delivered at noon. Full pies are $6 a piece, or you can just buy a few slices.
  • Osters and I filmed MB6 preview videos to be released starting Aug. 1.

More info coming later this summer.

  3. Keith Hagen says:

    Training begins next week. Two a days I am thinking.

  4. Jason Salmon says:

    DAMMIT! I so want to be a part of the “live, beer-drinking, studio audience”! Perhaps y’all can do a road-trip, to get the SoMoCo and/or Coconut League perspective.

  5. Chuck salmon says:

    Whatever happened to the Coconut League vs. SoMoCo faceoff that was supposed to happen in June 2010?

  6. At this rate it looks like Worlds will fill up within 2 weeks.

  7. sean dameron says:

    Coconut League vs. SoMoCo? Let’s make it happen!! Who do we need to talk to?

  8. Hagen says:

    Where is the countdown clock?

  9. Andi says:

    This is serious. Behind-the-scenes clips from the MB6 video preview shoot are posted. http://www.qik.com/afrushour What’s funny is that anyone reading this has probably already watched them 3-4 times.

  10. Hagen says:

    White Lebron was hilarious

  11. sean dameron says:
