11x world champion Kelly Slater revives age old “surfers vs. jocks” blood feud by making a mockery of throwing out first pitch at University of Central Florida baseball game!

Retribution coming.

Before e-bikes, serious training regimes, Mike Parsons and ice baths surfers had one sworn enemy and it was the malignant jock. Brawny boys to men who played organized stick and ball sports under the watchful eye of “coaches” and “umpires” or “referees.” Their way of life, all rules-based and rigid, was not ours with its radicalized “freedom” and home cut mohawks and hot war festered.

The salad years.

But leave it to our great champion, 11x, Kelly Slater to bring the enmity back for footage has just emerged of our hero taking the mound, before heading to Bells, at his hometown University of Central Florida and purposefully spiking a ball into the ground.

Mike Parsons, I’m certain, rolling over in his grave.

The vengeance with which Slater bounces his pitch also certain to roil long dormant angst.

Will retribution be sought by jocks at an upcoming professional surfing event, maybe Margaret River?

Trestles?

Filipe Toledo duct taped to a light pole?

Morgan Ciblic given a swirly?

World Surf League CEO Erik Logan short sheeted?

Let’s hope.
