Chuck is the Man

At the request of both the readers of this glorious blog, my buddy Dozer and I have thought of a Top 10 Greatest Chuck Moments..

1.)Chuck going to the Fray concert by himself is a good #1. Chuck has quite the unique taste in music that is more fitting for an emo 13 year old than Chuck. Whether it be the Fray, Fall Out Boy, or Panic! At the Disco, Chuck loves them all. While we know to expect the unexpected from Chucky, he would never go to this concert filled with screaming girls would he? Of course he would. I just wish someone could have been there taping him hitting on chicks and singing "How to Save a Life" full bore by himself.

2.)Chuck’s first ice cream cone:
Though I wasn’t there to witness it for myself, a close friend of Chuck’s- Mike Schactner was there. In this eventful trip to McDonalds, Chuck was treated to the first ice cream cone of his life… at age 7 nonetheless. After looking over this anomaly known as a cone, Chuck takes his first bite from the very bottom of the cone. Does it really surprise you though?

3.) Chuck 's Kitchen:
During the summer, and winter breaks, Chuck had some epic meals. He would come over to Doz's house to hang out with Doz and I, and he would proceed to summarize in astonishing detail what he had to eat that night. One of the best summaries included him and his father having barbecue baby back ribs. He described the cooking process in detail, how the ribs were slow cooked, the sauce added to the ribs about half way through, and how after they were done cooking they were falling off of the bone. Next thing we know he is describing how his father and him ate about 60-70 ribs total, and how he is the most full he has ever felt. He compared this pleasurable feeling of being full to sex, the ribs were just that good. Next thing Doz and I know, he is falling asleep on the couch, going into a food coma, I just thank God he didnt fall asleep at the wheel.

4.) Chuck taking a drunken stumble on his face on a trip to Minnesota to watch the Brewers: -Many times has Chuck biffed it in public, but this one takes the cake. It’s about two in the morning… we are walking back from Jimmy John’s when a group of Twins fans from across the street start a little friendly trash talk. Well Chuck doesn’t take too kindly to this and while we are continuing to walk, Chuck biffs it while talking trash to this group of Twins fans.

5.)Minnesota Bar Experience
The night before Chuck’s infamous biff, we did a little bar hoping on the Minnesota campus. With no fake ID to use, Chuck uses my brothers friend- Joe St. Peters ID. Here’s a quick comparison between the two…

Joe
Height- 5’5
Weight- 140
Hair- Curly

Charlie
Height- 6’4
Weight- 290
Hair- Buzz
With an ID that expired about 4 years ago, I get into the bar. Chuck follows shortly, only to be extremely disappointed when the bouncer takes the ID. He drank that incident off.

6.) Chucklemania:
During the summer of our junior year, Chuck got pretty aggressive in the weight room. After finishing a lift one day, Chuck proceeded to rip off his shirt and throw the weights on the floor. This act of manliness would eventually lead to the event known as Chucklemania. The events purpose.. well that’s up in the air, but we did get some pretty sweet shirts out of the whole deal.

7.) Chuck auditioning for American Idol, Say It Ain't Sooooooo

8.) Chuck showing off his amazing dance skills

9.) Driving with Chuck a few days after getting his license and spinning out in the middle of an intersection, Doz and I screaming for our lives. Chuck said the streets were "icy".

10.) There was a time during the summer where there was a fish a fish fry at the Mine Shaft restaurant. It was about $6 for all you can eat fish, fries, and cole slaw, it was a wonderful deal, and needless to say, we were going to get our moneys worth. It was supposed to be a contest between Doz, his two brothers, and Chuck and I. The pace in the beginning was fast and furious, Chuck was keeping up, but after his first plate of fish, he was down for the count. Doz's brother, who was 170lbs, ate at least triple the amount that Chuck did. But I will give it to Chucky, he actually enjoyed his fish, while the rest of us were just shoveling it in.


Honorable Mention:

- Chuck thinking he is Dominic James and a good shot blocker

- Chuck getting upset at a infamous Tosa West parent who has kids who are terrible at sports, and threatening bodily harm on him after the parent had walked away on the track. The TW parent had questioned the validity of Tosa West making the playoffs in 2006, which would rightly upset Chuck, as well and myself. This parent was an absolute idiot, so Chuck had good reason to want to punch this guy in the face and say that his kids should stick to theatre.

- During winter break of this school year, we decided to hold a mock interview for a head coaching job. Chuck was the person being interviewed by Doz, Doz's brother and I. Chuck took the interview very seriously and was getting easily upset after every question we were asking. We were questioning his logic and reasoning as a coach, and whether he would be upset if one of his players would date his younger sister. Needless to say it ended in Chuck telling us this interview was bullshit, and that we can suck his balls, giving us the silent treatment soon after that.
