CIGARSHOP IN CHARGE LEADING THE WAY

AND NOW THE STAMPEDE IS ON!

PEEPTOAD WITH ANOTHER HUGE MOVE IS RIGHT ALONG SIDE OF KD

BUT HOLD ON FOLKS.....

LOOKS LIKE TIGER DANCER MAY HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT THIS
AS SHE IS CLOSING LIKE A JUNGLE CAT WHO JUST SAW PREY AHEAD
PREY BEING ===> CIGARSHOP!

AND THE TIGER HAS ROARED RIGHT ON BY EVERYONE IN HER WAY!

SHE IS NOW NECK + NECK WITH CIGARSHOP WHO IS SHOWING NO
