Playing dodgeball with Bobby Bones
Even if you don’t listen to 96.7 KISS FM, you probably recognize the name Bobby Bones.
Between hosting a morning radio show and “Airwaves” on ME Television, one might think there’s not much time for play. But this past Saturday, Bobby, sidekick Lunchbox and producer Carlos took time out of their busy schedules to participate in a dodgeball tournament in celebration of the opening of So High Sports & Fitness Performance Center in San Marcos.
So High Sports is an athlete’s dream gym. Inside you’ll find a regulation basketball/volleyball court, cardio and weight machines, five-lane running track and 20 yards of astroturf. Outside is where the batting cage, putting green with driving cage, tennis/basketball court, football/soccer field and five-lane running track are located. On top of all this, the owner is 1996 Olympic high jump gold medalist Charles Austin.
There was a great turnout for the dodgeball tournament, and the gym was packed when we arrived. Each team was required to have a minimum of five guys and two girls. Bobby’s team by far had the best two girls, Tammy and Tiffany, who turned out to be a vital key to the team’s success. There was no messing around in these games, with some folks taking the rules and the game a bit too seriously, but all in all it was good fun. Teams played best-out-of-three games, with the loser being eliminated from the tournament. It ended up being an all-day affair with the Bobby Bones team winning the whole thing.
“The Bobby Bones Show” is no stranger to tournaments. Throughout the year they host their very own dodgeball, kickball and whiffleball competitions. The next is June 8. To register your team, keep checking www.bobbybones.com or listen to “The Bobby Bones Show” on 96.7 KISS FM weekdays from 6 to 10 a.m.
