Sunday, September 16th, 2007

Even though the events won’t be broadcast until December (I believe), Svend “The Viking” Karlsen has been posting up some behind the scene photos of the events that are rather interesting ( I actually think it’s his wife that’s posting them up now that I read a bit more).  It’s always nice to get a […]

Sunday, May 27th, 2007

Load Keg (not sure of weight and height yet)
Walk the keg for about […]
