tick…tock…tick…tock…The countdown is on! THE most extreme and hardcore athletic event in the United States, if not the world will be here in less than 48 hours (as of the writing of this back blast). The best of the best of the best will descend upon the Mandeville Lakefront to …
Another day in paradise at Grandma’s House. The Tuesday beatdown that started it all here on the Northshore has had relatively low turnout lately, but the company couldn’t be better.
