I'm a Hangman

Last night Brittany and I went to Hangman's House of Horrors in Fort Worth.



Recently we saw it on the Travel Channel as on of the best haunted houses in the country, so I surprised Brittany by telling her that's where we were headed. She loved the idea, so we went before it was even dark to wait in line in anticipation.

Meanwhile, this guy...



kept scaring Brittany in line. Most of the time I would be talking to her, he would sneak up, and I would play the part and wait for her to turn her head and see him creeping around. That was hangman by the way.

Also in attendance was the greatest Halloween man of all time. The Fredster.



The way in was really exciting. With all these chainsaw guys running around scaring everyone and the real Leatherface over in the corner signing autographs (I think he must be light in the pockets nowadays or something), the mood was set perfectly for scaring people...except for the random karaoke on the side. Anyway, in we went!



The best parts were what I call the "Joker disco" section, and Brittany calls a rave, with all these crazy neon colored nightmare guys jumping around freaking everyone out. I also liked the guy eating someone's intestines like spaghetti and licking it all up in your face. The worst parts were the claustrophobic mazes through white sheets and plastic tubes, as well as the classic spinning tunnel that makes me want to puke. Basically I just closed my eyes and held on to Brittany the whole time we were in there. She had plenty of screams and scares and I had plenty of laughs at her. It was so much fun.

In other news, we watched Brian's Song the other night.



I loved it like I always have, and Brittany "enjoyed" it. She would have liked it more if it was longer and had a more in depth story, as opposed to a straightforward portrayal of Brian and Gale's relationship. At least she finally watched it though, and it sparked a lengthy discussion with Keith about some of the greatest sports movies in history. Now she needs to watch Rocky.

Also I have some issues to discuss. So far I have gotten to watch the Ravens twice on television, and what do you know, they lost both times. I have gotten to also witness Virginia Tech's only two losses of the season...how convenient? Perhaps my luck will change this weekend as they play Florida State and desperately need a win. It's hard to handle mediocrity out of your sports teams! At least I know the Orioles stink. And the Wizards are always "overachieving" because Gilbert is always hurt. Therefore, I never get to experience the full potential of my favorite teams!

Except for those times that the Ravens won the super bowl, and the Terrapins won the National Championship. What a time that was.

Lastly, I would like to mention our fantasy football players' troubles as of late.

Santonio Holmes - caught with marijuana this week

Marvin Harrison - had a "shooting" take place at his restaurant over the summer, and apparently he was a little closer to the incident than just owning the restaurant.

Larry Johnson - being charged with assaulting a woman for spitting a drink in her face

Kellen Winslow - hates his team for getting a staph infection, and his team hates him. Sounds like some great playing time!

Alright that is enough rambling about things no one cares about. Sorry for the blurry photos but I hope they got the job done! See you next time.
