Minty Maniacs qualifying for Marble League ‘20? No one would’ve mocked you for that prediction, but saying they’d win 4 gold medals and auto-qualify for Marble League ‘21? You’d have been laughed out of the room. But the Maniacs did it anyway! They may be newcomers, but they are by no means a huge underdog in this competition. In fact, Minty Fresh and Minty Drizzel are some of the favorites.
“To say that your success in Marble League 20’ was unbelievable is an understatement, what was the reaction like when you guys were announced for Marbula 1?”
Minty Drizzel: “I think we all saw it coming to an extent after Marble League 2020’, mainly because we won the marathon and took the fanbase by storm. And to be considered a front runner pre-season only a year after coming out of retirement? That’s unreal.”
“Minty Fresh, you set the Andromodome on fire by beating the Speeders, Hazers, and Mellow Yellow, three teams who are known to dominate racing events, not once, but twice in racing events. Does it make you nervous to know that you’re a front runner for the racers championship this preseason?”
Minty Fresh: “Not at all, in fact, I feel better than ever knowing that we’re a favorite. I know what I’m capable of, and we know that we can beat the Speeders and whoever else we need to.”
“Aside from you guys, who has the best shot at winning Marbula 1?”
Minty Drizzel: “We think the Hazers, they’re the one team you can never prepare for, and they are capable of beating anyone when they race well.”
“What’s the pressure like from the fans coming into Marbula 1?”
Minty Fresh: “They’re holding us to some pretty high expectations no doubt, but we know we’re capable of exceeding their expectations, and we’re ready to put on a show.”
“What convinced you guys to come out of retirement?”
Minty Drizzel: “In a way, it was the failure of the Hubelino tournament, after it failed, we missed the thrill of competing in it, and we trained like crazy to make sure we could get back there… and we did and look at what we became. We got a fresh start.”
“Fresh start?”
Minty Fresh: “Please stop befor-Hahahaha, DARN IT!”
Minty Drizzel: “You never can resist a good pun can you Fresh? I know what I said.”
