Team Silver Fish Hits the Streets of Chicago

April 11-13, 2003
These pages defiantly qualify as "Fun for a few". However I will venture to impart, to you dear reader, the excellent fun a few of us had over two weekends in April. Freezing one’s butt off can, at times, be fun when frozen in the right company, and in particular when you’re being paid. Once again skaters were asked to put themselves and their pride on the line to promote a new product. This adventure centers on a smoking substitute, "Endit". It looks like a butt, is packaged like a condom, and is the reason we’re outfitted to look like those crawly little bugs that come out of your drain. Which then is the inspiration for our team cheer:
One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish... Silver Fish!!!
