INSTANT REPLAY PART III:
THE FOLLOWING IS A VERBATIM TRANSCRIPT OF THE MAYOR'S [i.e. Charlie Nickel for those of you without a flowchart] SCOUTING REPORT & SCRIPT FROM 1996

EDITORS NOTE: We'll be going Player by Player to get us in the mood for the 23rd Annual. Today's Featured Player from 1996 is Bubba K, pictured below looking resplendent in his Wykon garb. The special guest in the pic is his nephew.  
PACKER WEEK-END 1996
DECEMBER 20th-23rd
 PACKERS vs. VIKINGS
LG Jim Kralovac [aka Bubba, Bubs, Elvis, Krally, Jimmer, Wykon, and for one week in 1992 - Paul].


  • Scouting Report: Starting his 6th season Krally is known to to be one of the steadiest player on the field. This man is made of blood sweat, and determination when Packer Week-End rolls around. Count on Kralovac to be a "clutch" performer again in 96.
  • Inury Report: None reported [EDITOR'S NOTE: This was several years before Bubba gashed his foot on broken glass coming out of hot tub thus requiring meatball surgery after bleeding all over Charlie's kitchen].
  • Game Day Status: Ready To Go
  • Career Highlight: Coming to the Nickel Home very year with a snootful [EDITOR'S NOTE: Charlie's old school terminology for drinking, not drugs!! I'm being serious] and eating everything in sight.
  • Career Lowlights: Having his advances turned down by every women in "The Hotel" [referring to a famous bar in Oconto Falls] Christmas Day 1996 [EDITOR'S NOTE: I think Charlie means 1993]. Peeing on the couch in the Nickel basement [A harginger of things to come no doubt]. 
  • Game Day Status: Ready to Go 
Next Man Up:  Dave Babe
