The shadow of Christopher Nellerd was beloved in the town of Berkยs Falls, Minnesota as a civic leader, renaissance man, and all-around bon vivant. Nearly everyone in town attended his funeral: the mayor, whom he had saved from an orphanage fire as a child; four graduating classes of the school of international diplomacy he had founded; a half dozen of his successful heart transplant patients; and so many others. When the real Christopher Nellerd, car wash manager and divorcee living in West Plunkett 22 miles away, read the glowing eulogy of the shadow that had escaped him when he was 17 in exchange for the promise of a life free from the pressures of the spotlight, he spent a long, sad moment wondering how one could end up living in the shadow of a shadow.

Who can forget the final game of the 1928 Binwhipple Championship? The classic match might have seen the Harrisburg Grumwhellers claim victory against the Akron Tomtomhoops until legendary filsner Tommy Buntz stepped up to the wickowak, steeled his gaze at his longtime nemesis, Harrisburg fontzer Obie Doobmeyer, and let fly the most magnificent hamchamptanger, knocking the fontz straight through the lipzper and out into far left gronk. The fontz being impossibly high to block and too far out of reach for any of the Harrisburg chamblers to recover in time, Buntz was able to homb the jufors six times, winning the game and the title for Akron. His hamchamp sits in the Binwhipple Hall of Fame to this day, inspiring young boys and girls to take up the still-popular sport.
