Home Run Derby Contest Update – 4/30/09 – April Review
Posted by: Richie Rich in Contests, The DerbyWe’ve made it through the first month (okay, 3+ weeks) of the 2009 Home Run Derby Contest – which means it’s time to announce our first cash winner of the season. And that winner is …
The Heavy Hitters nab the first $50 prize of the season.
HH leads the Derby with 81 Home Runs, and has a very balanced lineup. Twelve of his fifteen players already have at least 5 Home Runs – and that’s how you win this thing.
Let’s check out the rest of the leaderboard …

In second place, there’s a 79-Home Run tie between Sir Isaac Lime II and Octuplet Pron.
I bet you thought I was gonna have a different picture for the octuplets, didn’t you?
Third place belongs to DEUCE with 77 Bigelows.
But … it’s not really third place due to the tiebreakers. Kinda like how Rob Schneider isn’t really an actor.
Just missing the leaderboard were David Wright Can Bite Me, Demolition Crew, Sweet Merciful Crap, Eat My Kosuke Fukudome Hot Dog and Suck It.
I have no idea what to do when (and if) four of those teams make the top three and I have to come up with an icon. I’m open to suggestions. Oh well …
By the way, it’s KENTUCKY DERBY WEEKEND!! Which means you’ll see all sorts of weird pictures around the internet on Monday from Churchill Downs. Like these.
