THE EDSBS BOWL: LET’S RIDE
St. Petersburg has a new bowl game, and we have one number for you, people: $350,000. Yes, all it takes to turn the as-yet-unnamed St. Pete Bowl into the EDSBS Bowl is a measly $350,000 in any currency. Imagine the splendor:
Flyby done by: A low-flying dirigible. Extra spice will be added when hundreds of turkeys are pushed from the blimp onto the stands.
Alternative flyby: Fat bikers in hang gliders holding sparklers. Did we mention they were naked and drunk, too?
Sponsors would include: Zybrowka Vodka, RoboTussin PM (for nightlife!), Cocaine Cowboys, the official bloodcokeumentary of EDSBS, Mercenaries 2, Burning Angel, and Chik-Fil-A. Goddamn, Chik-Fil-A is good. (Get it? Get it?)
Game announcers: Play-by-play: Ron Franklin, but only if we get to shoot him up with ketamine first. Color commentary: CNN commentator Richard Quest, fresh out of rehab with the volume turned up. Sideline reporter: Stephen Hawking.
Halftime entertainment: Tampa Bay’s own Morbid Angel.
For children, an alternate show will be provided outside with the Veggie Tales and special guest Deicide.
Goodie bag will include: one can of Busch Light, one tube bronzer, one pair old man blast goggle sunglasses, a scoop of ropa vieja ladled on top of everything.
All for just $350K, reader. If wishes were horses, people, we’d be running our own glue factory at this point. Let’s make this horse a winner. If everyone who reads this blog just sends in one dollar, we’ll have enough to make me only ask for a dollar TEN TIMES EACH. If Paultards can raise eight zillion dollars and get their own blimp, we can make this dream a horrifying, weeping reality.
(Actually, the Ron Paul Bowl would be uproariously funny, especially because the field wouldn’t have lines.)

Damn, y’all. I’m in for some cheddar. We could probably even trick the fine elderly peoples of Sarasota and Port Charlotte into emptying their purses if we can somehow turn this into a fear-mongering life insurance scam!

Between the strong odds that Rutgers will wind up playing in this game, and that I don’t have anything better to do with my stimulus check, I’m good for $50.
Make it $100 if you can hire some of the guys who dress up as Klingons to work field security. (Gotta get my nerd in here somehow)

If we let the local Scientologists hand out flyers, I’m sure they’d pony up some serious cash.
BTY, frozen turkeys don’t fly [O, you did mean frozen, didn't you?].
I’ll go $100 if I can sit with Holly.

Not only would I be in for 20, being in Tampa, I’d gladly do some volunteer work. I’ll get the white lines from local resident Dwight Gooden, and get Nick Hogan to drive the team buses.

I fully support this plan, but only if we can get (fuck?) lions to do the dirty work.
