Not only did the new word stick for the weekend, it launched a trend. Later that year during the Lake Champlain Poker Run in Vermont, Jeremy Cohen of Seabound Yachts in Clayton, N.Y., came up with a new term for the high-performance powerboat insurance specialist’s smart phone.

Now it’s our turn. Every year during the Desert Storm Poker Run, the 2022 version of which ended last Saturday with its traditional top-speed shootout, Wozencraft sponsors the first card-stop. The southernmost stop consists of a 60-foot barge—decorated with banners for his company—near the Havasu Springs, which shares the sponsorship with the well-known insurance broker.

From here on out, Desert Storm card stop No. 1 shall be known as The Wozen-Barge.
