Please Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em was a dominant album in 1990 topping the music charts for 21 weeks straight. The nation was wrapped in MC Hammer's rhymes as he danced his way into our hearts with his flashy trash bag pants. For nearly half a year, Hammer was "Mr Pants".
While it's unlikely that any hip hop albums will be released by the crew in our van during the course of the trip, that's not to say that great things still won't be going down. A winner will be announced each day in our Daily Quest for Awesome as one of us gets to wear the 24 hour title of "Senior Pantalones". The honor can be won for any significant accomplishment such as eating the most food at dinner, driving the longest stretch of road of the day, successfully pitching a tent, buying the most rounds of drinks or being the most accurate on the shooting range.
The privileges that come with being dubbed Senior Pantalones are many and include everything from deciding which Arby's we stop at for lunch while driving, having first choice of who he wants to share queen bed with, to deciding where he goes in the line up of hung over morning showers. Similar to how they help individual achievement stand out in the Tour de France, our Senior Pantalones will have to carry around The Trophy of Glory, a 8 inch marvel of marble and plastic topped with a gold-painted hot rod. You can't get a beautiful trophy like this anywhere, no way. You have to go Goodwill to buy them.
The person who has accumulated the title of Senior Pantalones the most over the course of our trip will take home The Trophy of Glory as our Champion. Keep checking in to see is leading the Senior Pantalones and by all means, please gamble on this competition.
