Crabgrass by Tauhid Bondia for November 17, 2021

How did Frenzy and pals know the address?

Que the theme from The Twilight Zone….

Go ahead, try it on for size. Or maybe let Kevin do that for you.

Joke gift from the wrestler.

Can’t escape from them, Gene. They know where you live. They know everything…

Neither of these gives me a feeling of closure in this case. I’m feeling very unsettled.

An epilogue is the final chapter at the end of a story that often serves to reveal the fates of the characters.

The epilogue is an important literary tool that acts as the afterword once the last chapter is over. The purpose of an epilogue is to add a little insight to some interesting developments that happen once the major plot is over. Epilogues often act as a teaser trailer to any possible sequels that might be created later.

You can’t run away from your destiny!!!!

I thought this was a great story line! I wonder if Brock is in on the mascot deal?

BUM BUM BUUUUUM!

You can run, but you can’t hide!

At least he didn’t wake up with that in his bed.

Perfect ending to this arch, I so thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you.

That was no dream. It really happened.

Actually, this entire arc could have happened in St. Paul some years ago… The city is built on limestone and is right next to the Mississippi. There’s a series of caves still running under the city. One of the tunnels had come up under the old Orpheum theater, opening into the janitor’s closet in the women’s toilet room in the basement. I used to work as a part-time janitor/set-up guy (setting up skids and chairs over the ice rink in preparation for rock concerts in the evening) when I was still in high school, and we’d occasionally get younger kids coming up into the theater-Civic Center complex from one of the hotels or apartments some blocks away in the downtown area. Can’t do that anymore, of course, because the city ripped out an almost 1-mile square area to put in the current convention center.

But, for the era Crabgrass is set in, Mascotopia could have been real…

Looks just like him. All from memory? Those Mascot sprits ARE powerful.

His mascot head looks like a cross between Homer Simpson and Bert (of Ernie). Brilliant epilogue.

And it came packed in a box full of those styrofoam peanuts. aarrrrgghh

This one was laugh out loud funny! Particularly the last line.

YOWZA!

Mascotopia is a suburb of the Twilight Zone.

EPILOGUE ? As we, with bleeding fingers, are left hanging from the cliff !

I thought he was going to wake up and find the mascot head in his bed, Godfather style.

Apparently, it ain’t over yet.

“Don’t ask any questions, Donna! Just pack a bag NOW! I’ll start the car.!”

“We’re not moving. HE is!”

Spooky! ( ͡* Ĺ̯ ͡*)

I’m lovin’ this so much!

oh no it to late to move

DON DON DONNNNNNN!

The prophecy was true

That’s terrifying.. e_e

Plot twist!

GASP! They were real after all! AND THEY KNOW WHERE HE LIVE!!

Maybe it wasn’t all a dream. I’m still confused about the mascotopia part being in a supply closet and going back in and just nothing being there.

Run. Just run.
