So every year my SO's kid and I play ONE match of NHL on PS4. We call it the House Cup. With it comes shit-talking rights for the whole year.
The first year I kinda let him win. The 2nd time he legitimately beat me. This time, my parents and my SOs dad were in attendance and oh boy did I grandstand. I gave a speech on the importance of who gets to take the Cup, how I was going to beat this kid so bad it was gonna he a crime, how having a captive audience was like a Christmas gift.
We did a practice match. I won that 2-1. Oh, I was convinced this was my year.
he fucked me up
Not only did he legitimately beat me, but he wrecked me. 7-0. In front of everyone. I must have hit the post 12 times with wide open net. Kid took on like 18 minutes if penalties. I had at least three 5-3 power plays and still didnt score.
Now everyone wants to be there for it next year.
Good memory.
