Huntington Beach - No official HBOTHVA results were posted this weekend as Lou Zaffino was mysteriously absent.
The last correspondence from Lou was a terse e-mail indicating that his "company" was having problems. None of the other
HBOTHVA members understood the full meaning of Lou's message; however, that is often the case so there was no undue concern.
Robert Riedl was Lou's replacement for the weekend in which a round-robin format was used. Virtually all 5 games
played were close with both Joe and Bern registering 3 wins each. Extremely uncharacteristic was Greg's 0 for 5 performance.
However, we understand that Greg performed beautifully the night before... Also adding to Greg's "condition" was the
fact that he only registered about 3 hours of sleep the night before.... Nice work anyway Greg!
Perhaps the most stunning performance was the comeback registered by Joe and Robert in the final game. Down, 14
- 6, Joe and Robert battled their way back and won the game. That's big time determination folks!!!
Stay tuned for details about the HBOTHVA Bobblehead give away at upcoming games this year.
