2006 Crane Pool Forum Picnic (Free Booze and Strippers)

[Willets Point]

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.

[Guest Bret Sabermetric]

It's a natural.

Even without Banner Day.

But with it, it's a super-natural.

[Guest sharpie]

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

[Guest KC]

I have tickets already, works for me.

[Willets Point]

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

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

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

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

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]

I'm still melted from the first one.

[Guest KC]

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.

[Guest Iubitul]

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...

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

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.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

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.

[Guest Edgy DC]

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

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

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

[Guest Edgy DC]

Badump.

[Guest KC]

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

[Guest Edgy DC]

Does this yet live or has it died?

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

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

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

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

[Willets Point]

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

[Guest KC]

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.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

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 -
