Ha ha ha. You guys might not know this, but I consider myself a bit of a loner (awkward laugh, and some applause); I tend to think of myself of a one-man wolf pack. But enough about me, let's get down to business. Most Awkward Player PA Announcer: Here to present the award for most awkward player, the real-life Pinball Wizard, Todd MacCulloch!
