YHC Top 10 Merkins

It was a cool morning in the mid 30s as 9 brave Pax ventured out to engage in the excitement of what’s to come, with one bobbing around with a weighted vest.  Didn’t need to tap the pencil for this Q – welcome to your humble correspondent’s top 10 merkins.

And YHC’s #1 merkin…. Merkin with a twist

100 merkins completed as the mumble chatter ensued. Some Pax pointed out the merkins omitted from the list. Now it’s time for everyone to share their favorite merkin. Going in order from youngest to oldest with some gentle moseying in between and filling in the gaps with a mix of underdogs, Freddie Mercuries, flutter kicks, LBCs.

• Mike Tysons x10 • Wide merkins x10 • Scorpion merkins x10 • Child merkins, x10 • Merkins with a clap x5 • Mike Tysons x5 • Doc Ocks x5 (more like a merkin neighbor than a true relative) • Alligator merkins x6

That’s 161 total merkins.
