CPF Meeting(s) Discussion Thread 5/31/08

[Guest AG/DC]

Section 8: The Klinger section.

[Gwreck]

Section 8 Upper Reserved is where my Saturday seats are. Perfect!

[Farmer Ted]

We're in upper box, 38. More interested in the tailgate and pre-game festivities. The game is just incidental.

[stevejrogers]

Somewhere in Loge 4 apparently.

[Guest Mendoza Line]

Loge 7, row L. See you then!

[seawolf17]

Might this be the biggest CPF gathering ever? Certainly the largest since I've been around.

[Guest Kong76]

sea: >>>Might this be the biggest CPF gathering ever?<<<

yup �

[Farmer Ted]

Maybe bigger than the picnic.

[Guest holychicken]

I got unexpectedly called into work on Sunday morning and, of course, stupid ConEd wasn't ready even though they insisted we come ASAP. Sat around for four hours. Stupid ConEd.

But anyway. . .I didn't buy any tickets for the game because when I got back from work I was frustrated and didn't think about it and was wondering if I was in on that block of 10. . . or if I should just go buy my own?

[Valadius]

I can't make Spring Training, but I will try and make the May 31 game.

[Guest Kong76]

Sorry holyc, the tickets are spoken for.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

OK, as far as I know, I'm in for both Sunday and the 5/31 game.

Should I just buy a single cheap-o ticket and join yas for that date?

[soupcan]

Did someone buy me a ticket?

I ask because I didn't expect that. Great if you did, no problem. I was planning on using my own and just tailgatin' with everyone, but that's cool.

If a ticket was bought for me and someone else wants it that's cool too because I can use my own.

Lemme know.

[stevejrogers]

See you Sunday! May 31st is still on the fence.

[DocTee]

Someone take pics and report for us out-of-towners.

[Guest Kong76]

I'm sorry for the confusion about the May 31st tickets, I only got them for
a couple of us who discussed it off-board. Once that group got to about ten
I didn't want it to turn into a project.

Everyone get tickets wherever and plan on tail-gaiting too since it's a four
o'clocker. I figure we'll hang over by the water in that section facing La-
Guardia but we have plenty of time for logistics and pot luck discussions.

[Farmer Ted]

A lot of pot luck goes on near that water. Unless you're Mark Corey, then it's not-so-luck. Depending on the NY water taxi schedule from Manhattan, we may try to join up after a booze cruise.

That's cool, KC. It is what I figured, I just didn't want to buy a ticket to a game I might already have had a ticket to.

[Valadius]

Oh wait a minute, the Spring Training game meeting is in New York? For some reason I thought it was actually in Florida. I actually can make it then, as I'm home for spring break. I'll let you guys know if I can make it. Put me down for a maybe then.

[Vic Sage]

I'm in for the 5/31st game and i'm still "iffy" for lunch on the 16th. I'm going to try and make it. I might have to bring my kids again (against my better judgment).

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

I am a definite for the 5/31 game at Shea unless something unexpected comes up. Hopefully, my son will be accompanying me.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Wow!

[seawolf17]

John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: Wow!

Is it really that surprising that Doc would bring his son? I mean, really.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Have you met that kid? I mean, man...

[Guest themetfairy]

If Vic is bringing his kids on Sunday then we'll bring MiniKnight along.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

No offense to any of you fine people but Mrs. Shot and Junior Shot have opted out of the lunch and game, but I'll be present for both.

[seawolf17]

Wow!

[Guest AG/DC]

Junior Shotbucket has way too much autonomy.

[Farmer Ted]

I bucked up for Junior Ted's ticket and now I find out her boyfriend, Junior Shot, is blowing off the game? Surely an appearance at the tailgate is in order, at the least!
