If you find yourself wanting to play bocce indoors but don't want to break your stuff…

… check out this awesome indoor bocce set. You could make it all “extreme” and play around your furniture, etc., too. Sasha (or a dog of your own choosing) could even be a course hazard to watch out for. Read more: Indoor Bocce Ball Game | Uncrate

Watch Your Balls!! goes down in the first round.

December 10, 2007

We wrapped up our most lackluster bocce season with a prompt first round exit. This season was marred by a lack of Matt on our team along with Sasha not making it to any of our matches. Though we lost the match, we still proceeded with our team dinner at our local Hibachi (get it?) [...]

I love taking photos at dusk

April 11, 2007

TOAD: April 10th, 2007: Grabbed this photo waiting for the car to head over for some league bocce at Floyd. We won our match and head in to next week’s regular season doubleheader finale with a 4-1 record.

3 lights

March 7, 2007

TOAD: March 5th, 2007: On Monday we went to Floyd for an alleged bocce league match. Streangely there was no opponent there for us to play so we scrimmaged for a bit and then went home with our competitive drive left unsatisfied. It turned out that I, known to some as Captain Schedule, had completely [...]

Boccelism Backlash: WYB!! has joined the movement

February 14, 2007

Monday night we had our second bocce match of the season against Boccelism. We were down a player this week without Daya, so we knew it would be a tough match, especially because Boccelism is quite good. They may have won the last tournament, but I am really not sure, and quite frankly don’t really [...]

Do it for the Mommas!

May 15, 2006

This weekend was the Spring bocce tournament at Floyd on Atlantic Avenue. Our team, Watch Your Balls!!, had a not so awesome record of 2-6 going into the playoffs. Last week we kicked off the tournament when the team we were supposed to play didn’t show up. We love forfeits! The remaining part of the [...]
