I found an old mini-DV of UCBT Cagematch from December 20, 2001. Mitch and I watched it and felt nostalgic and impossibly old. This was back before Curtis and DeCoster and Rocco joined Monkeydick and while Berrebbi was still on it. Curtis was filming it though so you can hear him laughing at his soon-to-be comedy partner Gemberling (and the rest of us). On the Respecto side, Owen had a mohawk and Riggle was overseas. Monkeydick won this, and you can see the surprise on our faces since Respecto was so clearly funnier.

I encoded the files for the other Monkeydick guys to see, but here they are in case anyone else is interested in seeing them.

Note: You have to download the .mp4 files and watch them on your computer. I didn’t make them viewable online because they would take a few hours to re-do.

I think I can see Erik Tanouye watching on the sideline and hear Gethard laughing in the back somewhere.

    I am (mildly) cursing my enforced lack of video/sound capabilities right now because I could use the amusement.

    One of the videos says “Matt DeCoster: ‘What Is The Harold?’”

    What is this?!?!

    Also, I love that Mullaney mentions that he’s going to stop saying the “no chicken wings” rule.

    Didn’t happen.

    Wow - that took me back.

    But where is Suppertime’s Harold?

    [...] Will Hines has posted videos of Monkey Dick and Respecto performing at the old UCB for all to enjoy. I love that you can hear Gethard laughing in the background.
