2ND PECHANGA B USCAP ADE, ANO THER WINNER! BUSCAP USCAPADE, ANOTHER By Bro. Ferdie Yambot
First to brag about was the charter bus and the courteous driver (Fil-Am Cesar) sent our way! Pechanga charters delivered on their guarantee for a tourist class this time! Hurray! What a foodie galore, it was overheard from people. The taste of Bro AlexA’s macaroni salad made our tongue sensors explode at first bite along with oven fresh empanada (still hot at serving), hard boiled eggs, chicharon, and hot pandesal with cheese; the explosion made everyone longing for MORE! Hay yay yay . . . (We’re going to your house Alex!) And the tongues’ delights continued on with fresh fruits, sweet red cherries (told them DUHAT while serving) and green mangos with caviar (bagoong… yaiks smell but who cares) to finish off the jolly BINGO! Ha ha ha On to business, 47 happy souls jammed the “cool” bus and even before it took off from West Covina, the PI Blue Ladies were on peoples’ throats already selling raffle tickets (that was chaotic, alright). A healthy gain of $300 was the handsome result! And donors you ask(?), who else but the usual generous Mommas; Sis IrmaA for the exquisite pearl jewelries, Sis Oyet Mejia for the ladies tights (many of them) and Kulit Sr for the Lakers pre-season tickets.
Those who won the pearl jewels wore them right up (for more luck daw, Tita CoraA said) and Lonzo Ball’s tickets were won by Sis EleonorV and Sis Prez BettaD. (what da heck! ha ha) Our bottom-line proceeds roughly computes to about $1,300…. Not bad for a good day’s work, ehhh! And with the usual high rollers we have (d’ Manikad’s, d’ Atangans), our $600 deposit coming back is a certainty! On the drive back home, it was decided that the little that was left of the poker pool ($24) was to be waged with the Lotto power ball. And who knows(?) . . . God willing! And would anyone believe that a plan for more merriment took some brewing (again), as Bro BodgieG got a hint that the bus stops at his place to help celebrate the birthdays of Bros. RamonD and JobeeJ! Almost all of the Amar/Azusa people (and more) broke the gate….. SURPRISE! The place got jampacked by brothers and sisters. HAIST Sis Prez BettaD and the PI Blue Ladies cannot thank EVERYONE enough! See U next time! Check out more pictures on page 4.
