5280: Give me Liberty and Beer

I grab the forty rip off the skirt
Guzzle it, grab the mic and come out the woodworks...

When the Slushy Gutter Summer Mission was hatched in late May, one look at the calender pointed to the past week as the perhaps being the highest scoring week among the entire mission. The midweek holiday created a jack off work week, and many simply skipped the second half of the week, therefore creating time for, of course, more beer.

Broz started it proper with a Rockies' game and conversations with tattooed freaks to again come in at the 40+ mark. Slick Rip finally got off the short bus, as he took in a game at 20th and Blake, a few BBQs and almost crapped his pants on his way to 35 swilled. The Commish also managed to take in a win at Coors Field before heading to the summer escape of beautiful Steamboat Springs, CO and notched his first 50 week. The half century mark is old hat for Current Slushy Gutter Winner Jeez Steve, as he posted 58 Bud Lights over the week. Two-time Slushy Gutter Winner Juck one upped him at 59, among those were a few choice micros (Pyramid Apricot, Skinny Dip) and the first Fosters Oil Can of the Summer. Trav also gulped down some Fosters, and went gully on us again with some Keystone Ice tall boys during some poker and BBQ. Former Two-time Slushy Gutter Winners JBiz and TDub both came in at about the needed mid-30s, including sharing a cold one in Eldorado Canyon on the 4th of July. Finally, former Slushy Gutter Winner Pickles also topped the 50+ mark. With the halfway mark of the summer approaching, the so-called "dog days" of waiting for football to start, the release of EA College Football 08, and just general "damn, it's hot, I need a cold one," the crew seems to be hitting their collective stride.
