'Twas the night before Competitive Camp
when all through the Rink

Not a creature was stirring
Not even Bob Brink

The Jerseys were hung in their lockers with care,
In hopes that Turk Evers soon would be there

The campers were nestled all snug in their beds
While visions of skating danced in their heads

As Joe watches the play and screams "Shoot the Puck"
He looks at some players and shouts "What the...

And Hound with his skates, and Marshy his stick
Had just prepared practice as the clock began to tick

When out on the ice there arose such a clatter
I sprang from the trainer's table to see what was the matter

Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the sideboards and threw up the sash.

The moon on the white of the freshly cut ice
Gave the lustre of mid-day - I had to peek twice

When, what to my wondering eyes should appear
But a massive Zamboni
To make the ice crystal clear

With a little old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be - Coatesy??

More rapid than Flyers his Coaches they came
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name

"Now Danny, now Billy, now Homer, Duffy, Rexy and Sharp!
On Jonesy, on Johnny, on Culpy, Joey and Rob!

To the top of the arena to the top of the wall!
Now drink away! skate away! coach away all!"

As Rivera the EBUG prepared jerseys for all
The campers on ice all had a ball

And so it begins in less than a day
Hard to believe that camp will soon be in play

And after all is over lifetime friends were made
Great because most are all past getting laid

And Lou said to all with his voice so bright
Good hockey to all and to all a Good night!

HAPPY CAMPING TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD-NIGHT!

From Joe Watson:

You ever hear the one about the time I almost drowned and got saved by a salad?

No? Well, here’s how it went…

It was August 1968. I had just wrapped up my first season with the Flyers and was back visiting Smithers when my buddy “Stubby” McClain invited me over to his in-laws’ place. They had a pool, and it was a hot day, so we figured we’d cool off.

Now, I figured I’d be safe just walking around in the shallow end. And that worked fine for about five minutes until I wandered a little too far and hit the slope into the deep end. Next thing I know, I’m gasping and going under.

Stubby and his brother-in-law jumped in to help, but I just about pulled them down with me. Somehow, they got me close enough to the edge where a group of ladies could help pull me to safety.

And here’s the part Stubby always loves to retell: the three women who pulled me out were named Mrs. Garlic, Mrs. Pepper, and Mrs. Green.

I looked up, soaking wet and half-drowned, and said,
“Well, shoot. Sounds like I was just saved by a goddamn salad.” 😂😂

This photo is from early 1968 with my Flyers teammates Forbes Kennedy and Bernie Parent.
