Kansas City Disc Golf World's Trip & Day 1

Mrs X and Maggotx left NJ on Sat before dawn.... we drove 13 hours straight and spent the night in Effinham, Illinois.....nestled between Teutopolis and Funkhouser.....If you think I'm joking check out the link below....

anyway....I can't believe we stayed in the "Effing" place...but we woke up to a good omen....the Bud Light Lounge right outside our Hotel room....too bad it wasn't happy hour...!!!



We woke up early,, and after several more hours passed through beautiful St. Louis Mo.


After driving through a never ending landscape of Cows, Corn and Clouds... after a total of 1,200 miles we finally arrived in Kansas City, Mo.

We checked in at the Awesome Embassy Suites and secured our reservation....here is a view of the Atrium from our Hotel Room front door.......

After checking in we were driven by the hotel courtesy van to the Westin Crown Plaza, site of the Disc Golf World's events...I registered and received a Fantastic player's package....

we attended the player's meeting .....all the Big Name Open Players and Am's were present....over 900 players.....when we left the meeting, a HUGE storm ripped through Kansas City......with rain in the forecast the fields are expected to be a mess for the start date tomorrow...I have 2 games tomorrow, one at 11:00 am and one at 3:00 pm.

..will keep you posted of Maggotx's Excellent Disc Golf Adventure......

Jersey Jam.....2009

On Saturday July 18 the Disc Devils held the 2009 Jam. This was one of the best Jams ever with about 100 participants. We even had groups from as far as Massachusets show up. With a full house even the GrandMaster Division (50+ years) had 8 participants....especially the Newest GrandMaster Mr. Cubby himself.....

In between the first and second rounds we had a Great BBQ and were able to build up some needed energy for the 2nd round. When the results came in Cubby took 1st Place, maggotx was able to squeak out 2nd place, Mel took a VERY close 3rd place and Mike K came up next at 4th. Here is a picture of some of the Jam Paraphenelia and my winnings.



Thanks to BOB, Kit and ALL of the Disc Devils and the Jersey Jam Sponsors for their hard work in putting together a GREAT event....

WOW....Following up on my Previous Post....How Prophetic....How Untimely....As Seen on TV.....

Billy Mays: Mr. As-Seen-On-TV, Dead At 50



Television pitchman Billy Mays — who built his fame by appearing on commercials and infomercials promoting household products and gadgets — died Sunday.

Mays, 50, was found unresponsive by his wife inside his Tampa, Fla.,home at 7:45 a.m. on Sunday, according to the Tampa Police Department

William Darrell "Billy" Mays, Jr. (July 20, 1958 – June 28, 2009)[3] was a television direct-response advertisement salesperson most notable for promoting OxiClean, Orange Glo, and other cleaning, home-based, and maintenance products. His distinctive beard and loud sales pitches made him a recognized television presence.[4]

Mays was born in McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania, and began his career as salesman on the Atlantic City boardwalk. He traveled across the United States for 12 years, selling various items before he was hired to sell OxiClean and other products on the Home Shopping Network. His success as a TV pitchman led him to found Mays Promotions, Inc. On April 15, 2009, the Discovery Channel began airing Pitchmen, a documentary series that featured Mays. On the morning of June 28, 2009, Mays was found dead in his home by his wife.
