Horseshoe Championships
After a slow day
at the sports desk,two of our cub reporters decided to take in the Montana
State Horseshoe Championships at a Horseshoe Complex near the Larchmont Golf
Course. Upon their arrival, it was indicated to them that there had been a late
cancellation and they were invited to participate which they gladly accepted.
Once the Gazette team got the rust out of their system, it was evident to the
large crowd watching that this team was a force to be reckoned with. They did
not disappoint and the crowd who originally had been cheering for the Central-Montana
championship team of Will Davis and Rex soon switched their allegiance over to
the Gazette Team, consisting of Grandpa and Ringer Rick. The Gazette team took
an early lead but the Central-Montana squad fought back and knotted the score
at 13-13.
Due to impending darkness, both sides decided to end the contest with
the first team to 15 points being declared the winner. It looked bleak for the
Gazette team when Will Davis put two shoes right next to the stake for an
obvious two points and the championship. That is precisely when Ringer Rick
showed off his immense skills and concentration. Ringer had been bothered
throughout the competition by a bad leg so he adjusted his stance into an
unorthodox position and let fly with his last shoe. The roar from the crowd was
so loud after Ringer’s ringer that several golfers from Larchmont said
that the noise affected their swing.
The losing team was very gracious in
defeat as they admitted that the best team had prevailed. Please congratulate
these fine atheletes at your nearest convenience for winning this prestigious
event. |
