CONGRATULATIONS TO STEVE "SHERIFF LOVELY" MAXON


(The coveted Bobberball Cup)

The World Bobberball Association is pleased to announce Steve "Sheriff Lovely" Maxon as the winner of 2009's international tournament. As this was the nascent sport's inaugural tournament, Steve has the singular honor of being the first champion of the sport. Steve also holds the record for the highest known score in Bobberball history- 21 points. He'll have a target on his back going into the 2010 tournament. Enjoy it while it lasts, Steve. We're all gunning for you in 2010.
Freakishly long arms and an indomitable will to win characterize Maxon, who is rumored to have undertaken a 2-week train trip to learn the secrets of Bobberball at the site of its invention. When competing he takes on the guise of a small-town lawman who holds your fate in his oddly calloused hands and doesn't appreciate your attitude one bit. He has the eyes of a hawk, the heart of a lion, and the stout constitution of a bear. As a result he has been banned from all zoos in North America. Children trust him.
(Sarah Tate has stepped up to the challenge of chairing the tournament committee for the 2010 world Bobberball tournament. Hopefully, under her leadership things will flow a little more smoothly than the 2009 tournament. Sorry for all of the hiccups.)
