BEACH BOYS FACT #2

The Beach Boys' best selling single was "Kokomo" which was the only one of their's to reach platinum.

one tough duck

NHL goons/thugs/enforcers are not usually the most interesting specimen in sports. They do most of their talking with their fists not finesse. Enter George Parros, #16 on the Anaheim Ducks. He is known for his remarkable push-broom moustache and ability to deliver haymakers yet not many people know anything else about him. Below are some amusing details about this unconventional ruffian.

- he is a Princeton graduate (he majored in economics).
- his father 'Jimbo' worked as an executive at Toys R Us.
- he donates his hair every Christmas to Locks of Love, a charitable organization.
- he drank moonshine out of the Stanley Cup.
- 'George Parros Moustaches' are on sale in the Honda Center (the Duck's home arena).

BEACH BOYS FACT #1

dennis wilson was the only beach boy that actually surfed.

meaning behind this blog title

I have had a couple of people ask about the title of this blog (Bay to Breakers). It is quite simple. The title is from a footrace held annually in San Francisco where runners usually participate in the nude or in costume and/or drunk.

This is one of the funniest sporting events in the entire world.

I have posted a link to the official website on the LINKS section of this blog.

half-time is prime-time.

The most entertaining and culturally significant sporting event in North America will be taking place on February 7, 2010 in Miami. The teams facing eachother have finally been set in stone. The Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints won their conference titles yesterday in exciting fashion and will battle in Super Bowl XLIV. I don't remember the last time I watched two exciting conference title games in one season.

The halftime show which is a pop culture staple will be performed by The Who. Do you know who/what entertained the audience in the very 1st halftime show ?




answer: The University of Arizona and Grambling State University bands, Al Hirt and the Anaheim High School Drill team.

Fact: Bobby Hatfield of the Righteous Brothers is an alumni of Anaheim High School.
