Stop what you’re doing right now. Stand up. Take a deep breath. Do a little jig.

Cause it’s pickle pickle pickling time. Oh baby oh baby let’s brine it up.

You already know the dill. And so does this guy 😉 if you know you know

Blah blah blah, 7:30-9:30, free bagels + coffee and the best community in the world.

Amazing weather, unbeatable vibes and the best way to start your Friday morning.

Cya bright and early tomorrow.

👀 Opportunity

We’re hosting the first ever Startup Pickleball Tournament in NYC

Are you a founder who thinks your startup has what it takes to take the whole city down?

Think your company has what it takes to be the pickle champion of the world??

We’ll see about that. But in the meantime, you should probably sign up here.

Here’s what up:

October 4th is going to be next level epic.

Not a founder? NOMINATE YOUR FOUNDER! SLACK HIM RIGHT NOW!

Worst case - You lose and you get a free commercial out of it Best case - You win, get eternal bragging rights and you still get a free commercial out of it
**We’re going to have a rocking content team there

👀👀 Opportunity x2

This may come as a surprise, but, John and I do have lives outside of hosting pickleball. (GASPS)

And unfortunately (or fortunately) we will both be gone for all of August and most of September.
**but mark your calendars cause something epic happening September 5th

IF anyone in the community would like to host in our absence, I would be more than happy to provide you with the wagon and the resources you need to keep the pickle momentum going!

If this is interesting, come find me on the court or shoot me a text 5038807397

WE WILL MISS YOU

It’s only temporary I swear!!

🥒 Pickle fun fact of the week

There’s a Pickle Juice Sports Drink

Yep. Athletes aren’t just chugging Gatorade—some are reaching for jars of brine:

• Why? Because pickle juice has electrolytes (especially sodium and potassium) that help:

  • Prevent muscle cramps

  • Rehydrate quickly

  • Replenish salt lost through sweat

• Does it work? Research is mixed, but many athletes swear by it. Some small studies show that muscle cramps stop faster after drinking pickle juice compared to water.

Here’s what I found on Google:

**Should this be our next sponsor???

Double fun fact bonus 
I had a friend growing up who was the Oregon high school state champion in Tennis and had bad cramping issues so his dad would bring jars of brine for him to chug while playing. He’d rip 3 or 4 of those bad boys a match. Wild.
