Team Bio:
| We are a second year mixed team from Lexington, KY. We had a successful first season (2015) – played in 5 tourneys (took 2nd place in Louisville, and best team spirit at CinCity). We have a variety of age and experience on our team, including several ultimate veterans and high school/college level coaches.
Our players are actively involved in service to the ultimate community through coaching efforts. Matt Brown coaches at Lexington Catholic High School. Alex and Matt McMackin coach at Lafayette High School. Matt and Heather Summers coached at Western Kentucky University for the men’s and women’s teams for multiple years although they just moved to Lexington last year. Brian Hawes has been actively involved in the Bluegrass Ultimate community for several years, assisting with leagues and formation of a new board. We are committed to spirited play and look forward to fully embracing the Poultry Days culture and meeting the locals. We’ll bring a work hard, play harder attitude. We think the community aspect of this tournament will be eggcellent, and as Kentucky folks, we think we’ll blend right in.
We even made a song for PD (with video):
Moonshine Poultry Days
Sunday Monday poultry days
Tuesday Wednesday poultry days
Thursday Friday poultry days
Saturday it's time to play
Dancing all night with you
Goodbye work hello Frisbee
There's nothing can stop me when there's whiskey
Hucks all day hammers are thrown
Running and cutting in the end zone
One o'clock two o'clock three o'clock
Bawk
Four o'clock five o'clock six o'clock
Bawk
Seven o'clock eight o'clock nine o'clock
Bawk
We are gonna hand block and squawk all day with you
Eggs!!!
To see us in all our glory…

Team History:
| This is the first time that this team is applying to Poultry Days. Last year, about half of us played on the team “Eggs ‘gon give it to ya” joined with friends from CA, NY and a couple from Lexington’s Black Lung team. While we may not fall in the ultra-competitive category, I do feel there are some pretty solid players on our roster and a breadth of committed volunteers to the ultimate community. Our roster includes individuals who have played on the following club teams: LouEvil, Cake, KFC, Black Lung, and of course, Moonshine.
The following individuals have played at Poultry Days before. I think the remainder of our squad with be first-timers for Poultry Days:
