After my last experience with the Fresno Grizzlies and their Thirsty Thursday promotion, there was little to no chance of me returning to the Chuk this season – and then I found out Billy Zabka was coming to town for Totally Rad 80s Night at the park. This has turned out to be both ridiculously awesome and heartbreakingly disappointing for the Beehive. Here's why:

Ridiculously awesome: Billy Zabka. William Zabka. Johnny freakin' Lawrence in the legendary movie "The Karate Kid." Enough said.

Heartbreakingly disappointing: Tonight is the season finale of "The Office." Sure, we can record it and watch it later, that's not the issue. Until we found out about Billy Zabka's Fresno appearance, however, the Beehive had plans to host a party tonight in celebration of the finale. I won't go into the details, but I can assure you it was going to be a very fun get together for local Officephiles.

Those of you who are the Beehive's friends on MySpace know that we love the Karate Kid movies (most of them, anyway), and we love "The Office" – equally. It was not easy to choose between Johnny Lawrence and Jim Halpert, and we resent the Grizzlies for making us make that decision (only a little – you can't stay mad at a group who had the amazing foresight to bring a member of the Cobra Kai to Fresno). All in all, we feel pretty good about our choice.

So, we'll see you at the Chuk tonight, and don't forget to record "The Office" so we can talk about it on the Beehive tomorrow.
