(from the Pansy Press - CPI):
Our lads of Girth First! hit the road for the first of a two game midwestern roadtrip. I'd heard
much said about the unusual cuisine of these parts and I must say it was disappointing.
Everything was either overcooked or undercooked and it always seemed to feature some
poor creatures knuckles or feet or rat-like tails. In any event the best local dish I came
across was a spicy stew of some unknown origin, I could taste okra, and cayenne, there
certainly was a wang to it. When I asked the goblin waiter what it was, he just cracked a
wide smile and said 'we make it out back'. On the way out I snuck around to the rear of the
building but I could see nothing but the outhouses... Oh well trade secret I guess.
67000 fans piled into the the swampy Lambago Field to see the first match up of bitter rivals.
The winner would have bragging rights in the upcoming Goblin Leegue. Our Master Chef
had trouble keeping his cooking fires burning in the soggy stadium, thus only managing a
bland porridge that even the goblins turn their noses up at. Most players only had seconds,
some others said they'd eaten before they got to the stadium and therefore "weren't
hungry".
Anyway the game was soon underway and after going this way and that way we ending up
winning 4-0 and we were off to the spectacular Post-Game Feast. Which featured Roast
Beast and dumpling gravy with deepfried foul and giblets, and eggplant soffle with iced
logenberry pudding over a generous helping of an Altdorf salad.... I'd go on, but this is
making me a might peckish....
