One of Betoota Grove’s most ruthless indoor volleyball talents is getting in the zone this afternoon, amping up to the sounds of the latest Kendrick Lamar album.
Local Junior Taxation Accountant Hugo Withers is getting ready to strut out of the downtown Betoota KPMG office in a race to make a 6pm tip-off at the Betoota Ponds PCYC.
Walking with a heavy swag in his step and sporting a 2XU gym bag next to his desk, it’s believed young Hugo has turned off all his white-collar worries and is getting ready for the big match-up.
“Yeah man, we’ve got a top of the table clash tonight in our mixed volleyball tournament, we’re playin’ for keeps” Hugo told The Advocate.
“We’re up against the ‘Tootie Fruities’ tonight, they beat us last time so we’ve really gotta square up on em’!”
With his headphones blasting the latest hit, ‘N95’, it’s understood witnesses saw the young finance graduate mouthing the lyrics; ‘Can I vent all my truth? I got nothin’ to lose… The government taxin’ my funds in the bank, Homies attractin’ the feds”.
“Fuck I can’t be late tonight, after my last ski holiday to Whistler my Phsyio gave me these theraband stretches I have to do before I play!”
Four tracks into the latest album, Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers, Hugo admitted to The Advocate that the softer, free-jazz inspired work was not quite hitting the same pre-gym amp up levels as previous Kendrick records.
“Yeah it’s all a bit wordy this one, I might need some ‘m.A.A.d city’ or ‘Backstreet Freestyle’ and a Diet Coke before tip off to really pump me up!”
More to come.
