It was <strong>Matt<\/strong>&#8216;s first exposure to the game, but he had no luck with the bookies, and in fact WHP.  The other WHP was <strong>Tara<\/strong> who had a rather ordinary evening score-wise.  The backup, <em>Pass The Pigs<\/em> was a bit more interesting in the scoring: Firstly, it was won by <strong>Wayne<\/strong>, a cause for major celebration, then our stand-in <strong>Jordan<\/strong> managed to get 2nd place (cheeky bugger) with <strong>Nicole<\/strong> 3rd.  Genelle scored Makin&#8217; Bacon on her very first go, and <strong>Rob<\/strong> also Made Bacon on his 5th go, losing all of his measly 10 points to put him at zero &#8211; stone motherless last as the final roll commenced.  With shouts of encouragement from the spectators, he managed a 63 point roll on the last gasp, the best roll of the game and enough to get 4th place which scored as 3rd due to 2nd place being won by a non-member.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"560\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sbgagames.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/240311_Gallop.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1434\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sbgagames.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/240311_Gallop.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.sbgagames.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/240311_Gallop-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sbgagames.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/240311_Gallop-768x538.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The vintage game of Gallop &#8211; photo by Jordan Thomas<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>El Prez is back, Jordan fills in for Steve It was good to see El Prez almost back to his usual form after his episode of garage carnage and health scare last month, and to top it off he won Pass The Pigs!
