Coney's story telling is incredible. I dunno why. Maybe it's the delivery, more than the actual story. But I love it all the same.

[@InkyGhoul]

He is a pro commentator, so he’s a good speaker.

[@yusuketm7701]

He is just so good

[@the0therethan]

Honestly his delivery is so good all the time he could make a dad joke sound like the funniest thing ever

[@ranchlord77]

Comedic timing

[@isaacconarroe542]

I agree I don’t think it’s just his commentary his storytelling skills are phenomenal

[@whalord1796]

I love how Coney happily closes his story while chat freaks out trying to figure out what he means "Sleepy isn't around anymore."

[@Butt6969]

The dramatic irony I felt when it turned out Sleepy was the one driving back is unprecedented. Long Live Sleepy

[@hideokojima9090]

How is this dramatic irony?

[@lonk2902]

@@hideokojima9090 we know he's nicknamed sleepy, but that nickname only exists in our world. The people in the story do not know something we do, that's the definition of dramatic irony. You should know that you use dramatic irony in your games sometimes.

[@clintwaki6936]

But who was sleepy?

[@adammarkovic3316]

@@clintwaki6936 prolly one of his personal friends/low ranked player that moved on with his life from smaah

[@ThisIsTripp]

Was trying to figure out who Spike was but when he said Kirby kinda gave it away.

[@Magnamics]

Almost for sure right. I was thinking Madman was going to be Sushiman cause he was probably the best Brawl player in NC before Kadaj/ESAM moved there, but he was also pretty inactive and Stingers got to 1 in the power ranking often because of it. Also ROB.

[@Yvs8962]

@@ThisIsTripp Yeah that and Chudat had the exact ranking Coney said “Spike” had in the region.

Unfortunate timestamp

[@godzilladude]

I like how Coney titles are ridiculous but always make sense after you watch the video

[@VideoCentral-bh9tf]

Ok so right, I'm a grown ass adult, but I want to know something Coney: how much do I have to pay you to read me bedtime stories? Literally the best storyteller I've ever heard

[@buff00n3ry]

22:04 I've experienced that acceptance when faced with the likelihood of death. Someone almost hit me head-on with more than enough speed to kill me. My first coherent thought as death approached? "Man, [my brother] is not gonna be happy that I'm about to wreck his car". I narrowly swerved out of harm's way, while the dude who nearly killed me rear-ended someone.

[@wildrose1266]

I have actually felt that serenity near death. Almost drowned as a kid and felt that feeling. It's a chemical or something your brain releases near death to make you feel okay before you go. Scariest fucking thing I have ever felt ever and I never wanna feel it again.

[@Evan-mt7bc]

Ironically it very well MIGHT have been because Coney cheated. If they didn't have that massive fight with Madman, reconciled and went with everyone to Cook Out somebody might have been keeping an eye on the time and wouldn't have felt as obligated to stay as long as they did had it not been for the guilty conscious. If this was just a normal day then it would have just been your bog standard eat after a tourney then go home but because of the massive fight the cool off period would have almost trapped you to stay with Madman to make sure you were cool.

[@iszakchan9529]

Coney’s such a natural entertainer and story teller, knows his audience, paces it well and keeps everyone interested. I love these story times and I’m sure he makes a great dad

[@blazikenblast0520]

Gonna need a few of these codename characters to come forth so I can thank them for making this story so gripping, regardless of who they are

[@Dieozam]

Coney is a master of story telling this shit is hilarious

[@austinfletchermusic]

I wonder if we can figure out the players again? Edit: WE DID IT (save for Sleepy, NO clues given). Long answer: Given context clues, I'm decently sure this tournament was in 2011. Unfortunately, both MD/VA Brawl PRs pre-2012 and the Smashboards post have been LOST TO TIME. HOWEVER ... I have some suspicions. "Brainy" just might be Logic, who was second on a LOT of the PRs they had. And a hypothetical Kirby player who might get on their nerves who would have an even MU vs. CONEY? How about ChuDat? (He's also a solid candidate for Brainy, honestly.) As for North Carolina guy there are NO Brawl PRs. I got nothin'. HOWEVER, XDmon in my replies say Stingers, which I THINK I remember seeing the name of. Good job!

[@xdmon1220]

spike is chudat and brainy is logic madman is probably stingers. no idea who sleepy is.

When coney tells story it’s like a dad retelling his childhood, we need more coney stories.

[@spl_itscreen3857]

If coney didnt rig the tournament, they wouldn't have had the altercation with madman, which means they wouldnt have gone to cook out together, and might not have stayed as late. Title makes sense

The fact that it's even possible to just straight up fabricate results at competitions/tournaments with money on the line is pretty funny. I suppose if you made a habit of it you'd get caught and eventually banned, but I'm sure it happens all the time if Coney and pals were able to do it so easily in this story.
