The C.O.C.
With a forecast of 63 degrees and sun on the horizon, the Suns and the Force came together to play the Cold Out Classic (COC). Though the weather turned out to be gray, wet, foggy, and in the low 50s, members of both teams claimed to have thoroughly enjoyed the COC. Representatives from the Catahoula Refugees missed the event. Sources say that Memorial Nick refused to enjoy the COC without Twitmarsh, who was looking for a new cave to dwell in. Nevertheless, nearly twenty people were on hand to play the COC, and many of them had great things to say:

"We brought our dog to the COC, and she cried the whole time. But we had fun." - Bobby & Megan
"I opted for wood at the COC, and I think it was very beneficial in the end." - Chippy
