I thought Goose was there to promote “picnic style” eating. Will he be kicked out of All Pro (AICE) now that he publicly went against their practices on an event sponsored by them…I though we were going to leave the “food drinking” to that other organization?

“Picnic style” is the only principle he has left.
Expect him to abandon that if a few & far between sponsor wishes it to be.
‘Oh you’ll give me $300. to make an a contest an hr long, w/nothing to drink, while laying on their backs. & putting the food in a blender…can you make it $350.??

I don’t know if picnic style is the only principle he has left or not. It seems they’re getting rid of all the self centered people. Looks like you’re one of them Joe along with Pete. I thought coondog was running the operation now anyway.

To see the gooser dunking is a travesty. He was supposed to be an ambassador of picnic style rules. Well this is a bunch of crap.

Did Arnie/Coondog really attempt to put up a video of Goose ‘dunking & desecrating?’
I say attempt because, as usual something needs to be fixed to view it from the aice site.
I believe this makes it official that they do not have ANY principles.
