Bloodmatch championship belt unveiled
The bloodmatch championship belt stunned and amazed those in attendence at
Creepy Croquet 2001. The Mauler captured this prized possession and was
quoted afterwards, "I've been waiting all my life for this. I am finally the
bloodmatch champion! The world is truly in my hands. Now I wait by my phone
to hear about my next major motion picture project."
The next event is Slaughterfest 2001 (I think it's on Thanksgiving at Kreten
Field), we shall see who wants to contend to be the next challenger for the
bloodmatch belt.

3.
First official double-ball match.
The Mauler defeated the Punisher in the first ever official double ball
match. Originally also a double-run game, it was shortened down to a
single-run due to time contraints. Peter admitted that the double-ball match
was, "very confusing." The Mauler was able to take advantage of Peter's
double-ball inexperience.
Most of this match was digitally recorded by the Hammer. A cd with croquet
movies will be released in the near future. Any interested parties in
obtaining a Squirearchy movie cd should contact the Mauler (Matt Maldre) at
croquet@....

Hammer scores half-court run
In the second game of the day, the Hammer started last and had the entire
court set up for him to make a half-court run. There was an opponent's ball
sitting at every wicket allowing him to croquet his way to an easy
half-court run. (the first official one on record)

Other notes from the day
The Hammer asked Pudlo if his brown croquet ball looked like a whopper (like
the candy). Pudlo gustoly replied, "Yeah, every time before I hit it, I
think should I eat it, or hit it?"

Shot of the day
The Godfather had a couple shots that day that were worthy of the shot of
the day, so he earns this award.
