The biggest day on the Hu$tle calendar is here. Ten owners, one backyard, a pool, a grill running all afternoon and a full Mexican spread from La Esperanza. Show up early, eat, swim, talk nonsense — then we lock the draft order, hand out hardware, and go on the clock at six.
Exact address is in the group chat and the calendar invite.
