Playoff Game Party - Saturday at Sluggers, 12 noon

[Slugger_16]

It's long past noon, and no one's at my place yet.

 

Though you guys might be better off staying in Chicago.

 

You're just hoping for SSR in a banana hammock.

 

Hammock up, SSR!

[Brian]

had to bail on this today, are the out of towners going to be around for some drinking tomorrow afternoon?

[chuckywang]

Sorry guys, I couldn't find you guys at Sluggers. It was just so chaotic and loud in there.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

A fun time was had pre-game. No one stayed around post game. I'm so hung over. But if anyone is in the area and wants to meet somewhere to watch some NFL hit me up.

[Laura]

It was GREAT meeting up with you guys! I hope everyone made it to their respective places without too many hassles. I ended up having basically to drive a couple of friends home due to circumstances; sorry I couldn't meet up with people afterwards.

 

CT, excellent to meet you in person. You definitely have an air of gravitas about you; hope you had a good trip despite the Cubs' outcome.

[Fred Hornkohl]

It was really great to renew acquaintances with Vance, Laura, Mark_R, Garwilly, Yeti, Swordsman, Sethuel1, CubmanPi, Soccer10k.... and to finally meet CT in person !! (If I've forgotten anyone, please forgive me!) To gather with such a fine crowd really helped to take some of the sting out of the results on the field.

 

I hope we'll be able to target a game or two during the upcoming season for another pre or post game gathering and encourage more of the members to stop by. "Wait 'til next year" has become such a tired old cliche..... but there will, indeed be a next year !!!

 

Remember...... only 126 more days 'till pitchers and catchers report !!!!

 

 

 

Go CUBS !!!

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Well, I made it home safe and sound. Thanks for the fun, guys. While the game sucked, hanging out with everyone was a blast!

[Guest]

CubmanPi and I were close to bashing our heads through the windows at Sluggers during the game - we were the only ones who didn't have tickets to the game. I echo Vance's sentiments - good to meet some people even though the Cubs sucked.

[Yeti]

does anyone recall seeing me after the game or have any idea how i got back to my hotel room?

I didn't see you, but I recall Fred saying he gave you a lift.

[Laura]

I had a missed call from you, Yeti, but you didn't leave a message.

[swordsman]

Last I saw of you, you were headed south on Clark to get some smokes. You were supposed to come back with a fascinating story.

 

I never saw you again.

Fred picked you up in Wrigleyville and, along with CT and I, we went and got some food and then dropped you off at your hotel.

[Mizzou]

I love how Yeti blacked out and doesn't remember anything, yet everyone is able to piece his night back together.

[Yeti]

thank you all for the help with what happened to me that night...funny thing is that i remember watching the sun come up, thinking to myself that i was gonna pay on sunday for my saturday...i didnt get out of bed at all sunday...

[Guest]

[CubmanPi]

Actually, I have a few pics. Included are: soccer10k, Fred Hornkohl, Vance, Mark R, Garwilly, Yeti, Laura, CT, and Seth (the only one with Seth, you can't really see him that well). I don't even have them up on photobucket yet, but I'll get around to it soon enough.

 

Also, I'd like to make sure those pictured are all okay with it before posting the pics on here.

[CubmanPi]

And no, I don't have one of the 19-yr-olds that Vance and Mark were hitting on. Sorry everyone.

Don't worry bout it then. I prefer drunk pics. :drunken:

[Mark_R]

They were all my age!

 

I called one for an interview today, we'll see what happens.

Careful, you're nearing a man code violation there.
