Greatest Bocce Ball Comeback in All of History

Team Tigers was defeated by Team Worms in a stunning comeback from a 2-9 game last night at Union Hall. April "Meow-Meow" Tiger led Team Tigers in an early lead with stunning accuracy in throwing the bocce ball. Teammates Michael "I will eat you Alive" Tiger and Lauren "Purr" Tiger nearly drove Team Worm into the ground with their blocking and knocking strategy. But in the 11th hour, as Team Tiger had one point to win before eternal victory, the deflated Worms mustered their skills and cried into the night "We will not be defeated"! Like the minute men who fought the far-better equipped redcoats in the Revolutionary War, Team Worms at last found their game and discovered the art of throwing the bocce ball. Suvi "I won't take this lying down" Worm strategically threw the jack (the smaller ball) closer than other times, changing the entire dynamics of the game. Kirk "I will make YOU eat dirt" Worm perfected his underhanded, backwards-spin throw for extra precision, and the team quickly started gathering points. Both teams watched anxiously as Team Worms staved off defeat three times by keeping the Team Tiger balls out of point range. An observer to the game texted the scores to a friend as she waited breathlessly for what she knew would be a colossal upset. And with one last flick of the wrist, Rus "The Composter" Worm knocked the victory and glory out of the hands of Team Tiger.

While it was a stunning victory that will be talked about for years, some controversy has already arisen concerning the change in fortune. While traditional Bocce Ball games are played to six, the teams played to ten points, which may have leg to fatigued throwing arms on the part of Team Tiger. While this is unusual, it was, in fact, agreed upon by both sides. Another controversy surround an order of French fries, whose appearance seems to be directly correlated with the downfall of Team Tiger. The tapes will be reviewed to see exactly how much on an impact the french fries had on the performance of the teams. But scandal aside, this was truly one of the greatest Bocce Ball comebacks in all of history. Ever.
