You'll have to pick up the pace a little if you want to catch some of these "tossers" (Ooh did I really use that word??)

Good going man, your

Now as an idea, it might just be cool if you had your first name stated in your user profile so I can call you something other than cmcm3

Booyah or Booya is a food that is prepared like a stew, but on a very large scale. It takes many cooks to prepare the food, and it is usually meant to serve hundreds or even thousands of people. The name booyah is also used to describe the event surrounding the meal, and is probably a degenerated form of the name bouillabaisse, or as a mis-interpretation of the French word bouillon by a newspaper reporter (see history).

In the cooking of booyah, one makes a base or broth derived from culinary bones to which other food can be added. Beef, chicken, and pork are popular meats for booya, and vegetables such as carrots, rutabagas, celery, and potatoes are also put into the mix. A wide variety of seasonings are often used.

The preparation of booya often takes up to two days, generally cooked in specially designed booyah kettles that can hold more than 50 gallons of the stew. Generally made for charity events, some community groups and churches have their own kettles, while other groups rely on municipal kettles. Highland Park in St. Paul, Minnesota, has a shed with 5 kettles which can have a total yield of 350 gallons of booyah. The kettles have been around for several decades, but as of December 2003, there is controversy regarding the safety of the burners used to heat them.

Correct me if I'm wrong but the word "Booyah" was used in the old ESPN commercial advertising ESPN the magazine.
