2006 Crane Pool Forum Picnic (Free Booze and Strippers)

Willets Point Apr 10 2006 11:42 PM

I'm opening up this thread for discussion of our annual get together at a Mets game. Here we'll gauge interest, make plans, and discuss particulars. In the Banner Day thread, Rockin' Doc proposed attending the doubleheader against the Marlins on Saturday, July 8th starting at 1:20 PM. I second this proposal. Any one who wishes to add to this idea or offer alternates, here's the place to do it.

It's a natural. Even without Banner Day. But with it, it's a super-natural.

Not sure I'm in town on July 8. If I am I'm there.

KC Apr 11 2006 09:33 AM

I have tickets already, works for me.

Willets Point Apr 11 2006 05:00 PM

Not getting much of a response so I'm bumping this just in case folks didn't see it.

Johnny Dickshot Apr 11 2006 05:02 PM

I'll go if you guys go, most likely.

D-Dad is reluctant to commit - if MK doesn't have a Little League game, then D-Dad has something else going on. I might or might not show up on my own.

Farmer Ted Apr 11 2006 10:47 PM

I'm still melted from the first one.

KC Apr 12 2006 08:10 AM

I got three more cpfr's to join me for this day. If anyone wants to try and get tickets in our vacinity pm me and I'll send you our coordinates. Start working on banners.

I'll be joining KC - this sounds like it will be a good day. I just hope we won't need the blue tarp lounge...

ScarletKnight41 Apr 12 2006 02:02 PM

I'll be there. D-Dad and MK will be off doing their other stuff. I'll ask D-Dad to make a "Bring Back Banner Day" banner for me.

As I've been thinking about it while looking at those old schedules in the yearbooks, I think Banner Day is a concept whose time has passed. I suspect that if it was revived it would flop. Some things may be better left in the past.

Edgy DC Apr 12 2006 02:09 PM

You may be right. I'd like to see that argument spelled out, though.

Yancy Street Gang Apr 12 2006 02:42 PM

I don't want to hijack the picnic thread, so I replied in the Banner Day thread.

Edgy DC May 01 2006 12:24 PM

Badump.

KC May 11 2006 09:11 AM

Maybe we should change the title of this thread to "free booze and strippers"?

Edgy DC Jun 11 2006 12:44 PM

Does this yet live or has it died?

Rockin' Doc Jun 11 2006 02:01 PM

Parental obligations shall prohibit me from making the journey north to Shea. I'm still dealing with my disappointment.

Yancy Street Gang Jun 11 2006 04:03 PM

Are the strippers free, too, or just the booze?

Willets Point Jun 12 2006 07:00 PM

Who edited free booze and strippers into my thread title?!?!?!

KC Jun 12 2006 07:21 PM

Wasn't me, but it's funny. E: >>>Does this yet live or has it died?<<< I think the notion of tailgaiting is kinda dead, doubleheaders are a long day. But I guess I'm game for anything ... need people to chime in, book the girls (and a Sven doll for Mrs. Fields), and stuff.

Look what I'm getting - I bet you guys are so jealous you'll want to sue over the fact that you're not getting one -
