    Moleskin

    • YHC assumed Bachelor Pad and Dreamliner both could have gone longer on their planks, but for the good of the PAX they acquiesced.
    • While at the top of the parking deck, the PAX bypassed the parking barriers (it was assumed) into forbidden territory; in actuality the PAX were in forbidden territory to begin with but moved into approved space by bypassing the barriers.
    • WHAM-O walk, while successful, was dominated by a few individuals. At one point, Buoy threw the disc directly into the ground it what appeared to be an intentional move to force the PAX to do more Bear Crawling.
    • Space Monkey indicated he will be sending YHC a laundry bill. It is likely he will have trouble collecting.
