They broke into KVN with sparkling humor balancing on the verge of a foul back in 2000, and since then the team "Burnt by the Sun" is unknown, perhaps only to a baby. But few people now remember that the first captain of the team, who left it two years later under circumstances not clear to the public, was Ruslan Khachmamuk.

What happened in 2002 in the "Club of cheerful and resourceful"? Why did the captain leave the team on the crest of its success?

Black jackets, white T-shirts

At the dawn of their performances, the KVN team of the Sochi University of Tourism wore suits - black jackets, white T-shirts - by which the viewer recognized them.

Captain Ruslan Khachmamuk left after a serious disagreement with Maslyakov in 2002.

Twice (in 2000 and 2001) a silver medalist in the Major League, after his departure the team became the team of the Krasnodar Territory. The duties of the captain began to be performed by Mikhail Galustyan, who later became a celebrity.

Back in 2002, each side of the scandal gave its own explanation of what happened. What actually happenedreally?

Ruslan Khachmamuk and Maslyakov

Immediately after the conflict was resolved, in an interview with Kursk journalists, the former captain of "Burnt by the Sun" said that everyone's favorite KVN program had become a banal commercial television project, in which "everything depends on the mood of Maslyakov's wife," acting director. She even controlled the composition of the teams, the definition of which she disposed of, as she pleased. It happened more than once that the strongest actor was removed just because Mrs. Maslyakova did not like him.

The Maslyakov couple, recalled Ruslan Khachmamuk, allowed themselves to "kill" the most interesting, already rehearsed program without any explanation, and the teams had to redo the script in a matter of days. Therefore, for all their wit, the students had a constant shortage of jokes, and they had to buy them. Even then, as the former captain claimed, there were exchange rates in KVN: $ 20-25 was worth a good joke, $ 300 - a good song. The most expensive thing was the number pulling for the title of "highlight of the program" - about $ 500.

Alexander Maslyakov responded to these accusations to the press that during one of the performances of "Burnt by the Sun" a plus-phonogram was used. In addition, according to him, Ruslan Khachmamuk was engaged in traveling around the junior leagues and stealing jokes.

Let's figure it out

Someone will shrug their shoulders in bewilderment: why stir up the past? But for the sake of restoring justice, this must be done: in order to understand our ownattitude towards disgraced characters.

The legendary birth of the team, whose backbone was made up of players who had never stood on the stage before, took place in the winter of 1998.

According to eyewitnesses, already in those days the team was distinguished by its energy and will to win at any cost. Pretty solid material (which is confirmed by a few recordings of those years), as well as a number of other circumstances, in a number of which the patronage of the organizing committee, which undoubtedly played an important role, allowed the team to reach the final in 2000 and 2001, to win the Small KiViNa, KiViNa in black. And also earn the notoriety of a team that steals other people's jokes.

President of MS KVN Alexander Maslyakov, commenting on the "revealing interviews" of the former captain of "Burnt by the Sun", noted that as a result of the team's activities, two Decrees of the President of MS KVN had to be issued: "On the ban on plus soundtracks" and "On copyright protection ".

Some of their fans will say: "But there were two Burnt by the Sun teams…" Yes, yes.

There was a second birth - in 2002, after a number of changes in the composition of the group, the main of which was the disappearance of the first captain, and the appearance of new faces. We must pay tribute to Galustyan and the new lineup of the team: Burnt by the Sun -2 (the champion of the Major League in 2003, the summer cups in 2004, 2005, 2009) surpassed its predecessors!

But nothing goes unnoticed. Scandal, whoever was its culprit, greatly undermines the reputation of everyoneparticipants.

Whether that's why, or for some other reason, but for some time now KVN has ceased to be closely watched by its former fans. According to some of them, the format of modern KVN is not interesting from the point of view of humor.
