As we mentioned last week, a skeeball machine was spotted hanging out outside of Rhea's during Sunday Streets. And this made us freak out. Why? Because we love skeeball, damnit, and we aren't particularly down with biking out to the Richmond to play.
Well, the machine's owner, noted skeeball champ Joey the Cat, has found a permanent home for it right in Dr. Teeth's backyard and they're celebrating its arrival with a cancer research fundraiser TONIGHT before Broke-Ass Stuart's party. Joey fills us in:
Our dreams have come true and I found a home for the skeeball machine: Dr. Teeth. To kick off the machine being placed in the newly renovated backyard AND raise money for blood cancer research (who's not doing that right now?!), I'm hosting a Charity Skeeball Tournament with a bunch of prizes and fun.
Here are the details:
6PM registration / 7PM Tourney Starts / 9PM Trophy Ceremony
Prizes: Sol Republic Headphones (value: $99) - $25 Gift Card to Mission Bicycle - 3 Sony Dashes - One Free Skeeson of Brewskee-ball - Other Goodies
The tourney is free to enter, but they'll be charging $1 per game (all of which is donated to blood cancer research, of course). Also, THERE'S SKEEBALL IN THE MISSION NOW.
[Thanks, Joey!]

$1 per game for charity is fine, but I hope that’s not going to be the standard rate. I don’t even bother with Buckshot because, as much as I love Skeeball, I am not going to pay $1 per game, especially if I’m not earning tickets that I can trade for crap that’s made in China.
Isn’t there a skeeball machine at Musee Mechanique? How much does that one cost to play?
Skeeball is totally awesome, but not quite awesome enough to get me to go to that shitty bar.
