On Saturday , the Yellowstone Dutton Ranch took major parts of the field and controlled it for the majority of the day . This made it easy for them to complete most of their missions . However , if you don ’ t know Phil Ramirez and Luis Rivas , you should never count them out . Phil ’ s go to guy for completing those extremely difficult missions is none other than his teammate Sebastian “ The Real MVP ” Alvarez . Seabass and the Muddy Water Boys were still able to sneak around and complete most of their missions . At the end of Saturday , the game was close .
Saturday nights at Avid ’ s October game always feature a crazy Lip Sync Battle and boy , does it get crazy . There were 10 acts ranging from I Prevail to Cher . The crowd decided that Alexander Watson ’ s performance of a Wheeler Walker Jr . song was the best , and he took home the six foot tall Blue Falcon Lip Sync Battle Trophy for 2023 .
Sunday started off with a rodeo event that had these cowboys excited until they figured out they were going to be Brrel Racing . Each side had a horse mask worn by one player while giving a piggyback ride to another while running the barrel racing pattern . This took place on a separate netted off area , and the winner was decided by a time difference of just . 3 seconds ! That shows how close the entire game was . The 6666 ’ s ranch used their experience and saved most of their fuel cards for Sunday and were able to make good use of the tank .
Trae Brock and his tank were an amazing addition to the game . Both sides were able to use it by turning in their fuel cards , and the sportsmanship shown by the tank crew was amazing . Trae and crew got many of the young guns at the game to be the gunners , and they all had a blast .
By the time Final Battle rolled around , the game was neck-and-neck . The Blue side had a very slight lead , so it was still anybody ’ s game . This battle played out on Avid ’ s Tombstone Field , which is a wild west town with a road going down the middle . Five slap sticks ran down the middle for part of the score .
The other way to score points was to play Snake In My Boot Each side was provided 72 little rubber snakes , and the goal was to get them into their side ’ s boot on the 50 . This was an intense battle as the game was on the line . Both sides battled it to the last second . Paint was flying everywhere . When the dust settled , it revealed that the 6666 ’ s Ranch Phil Ramirez and Luis Rivas had led their side in a comeback victory . They each received a custom cowboy belt buckle and the bragging rights that go with it .
This event was a blast , and everybody had fun . If you missed out , not to worry ! It has already been announced that this game will be back next year . Join us October 5th-6th , 2024 in Guthrie , Oklahoma , at Avid Extreme Sports Park for The Brand presented by Action Scenario Events .
