These Go To Eleven

COP – Sugar

This is Spinal Tap – a mockumentary of a fictional 1980s heavy metal band  – was released 37 years ago today.  Some of the younger PAX had never seen the movie and struggled to understand hilariousness of the movie quotes and/or references to phrases such as “These go to eleven” or how a 18 inch replica of Stonehenge was in danger of being crushed by dwarfs during one of their concerts.  Crampon was gracious to bring his Spinal Tap soundtrack and the music filled the Amphitheater air.

The Thang

A circuit of 11s and bear crawls around our block coupons were designed in honor of amplifiers that are one louder than 10 and mislabeled stage set decorations drawn on a paper napkin.

You Don’t Do Heavy Metal In Dubly, You Know

11s: OHPs and Dips

Stonehenge:  1 bear crawl lap around the perimeter of the amphitheater circle

It’s like, how much more black could this be? And the answer is none. None more black.

11s: Block squats and Bobby Hurleys

Stonehenge:  2 bear crawl laps around the perimeter of the amphitheater circle

You can’t really dust for vomit

11s: HR Merkins and Curls

Stonehenge:  3 bear crawl laps around the perimeter of the amphitheater circle

It’s such a fine line between stupid and uh… clever

11s: Burpees and BBSUs

Stonehenge:  4 bear crawl laps around the perimeter of the amphitheater circle

We’ve got, you know, armadillos in our trousers

11s: KBS and Box Jumps

Stonehenge:  5 bear crawl laps around the perimeter of the amphitheater circle

Time ran out in the middle of our 4th circuit.  

Mary – No time left
