Preview: Valentine's Duel - February 8, 2019

If love is in the air, it's not for this month's Duel!

I had to beg, scratch, and steal just to find a dozen roses to play this Friday.  Perhaps real life love is interfering with our hallowed Valentine's Duel?  After five years, is Dueling love dead???

You can't teach heart, but you can cut cheap imitations of them out of red construction paper.  And what does that have to do with our Valentine's Duel?  Absolutely nothing.  I'm just running out of ideas to lead off these preview posts and need some filler.

2018 - Ryan won with Darth Vader in the Emperor's Throne Room

TREY REY PREDICTS THE WINNER:
Alright, it's time to check in with our favorite split-personality prognosticators, Trey Rey!  Friends, what can you tell us?  And keep in mind you're 0-7 with your picks this season...

Lil' Rey:  we're picking up on your impatience, nerd.
Big Rey:  YEAH!  WE'RE A BIT DISTRACTED WITH THAT PSYCHO KYLO REN.
CHECK OUT THIS STUPID VALENTINE PRESENT HE SENT!
Lego Rey:  yEaH, NIcE tRy, kylO.  We pICk YouR dAd TO wiN,

Han Solo?!  A bold choice.  But then again, you have a soft spot for the old smuggler.  Speaking of smuggling...is that stuffed Valentine frog moving...?

Kylo Ren:  SURPRISE!  My Trojan Frog plan worked perfectly.
Now, Trey Rey...YOU WILL BE MINE, VALENTINES!

TO BE CONTINUED!!!

Is it weird that I play with my daughter's Star Wars toys more than she does?  Don't answer that.  Join us Friday night to see love die, slowly, for eleven romantics!
