Big Al's on Saturday, April 9th viewing party

[BonesJones]

This is also a great idea!!! IM not privy to any indoor gyms, but know many decent outdoor parks for the summer time.

Maybe we can do an S2 draft???? Vote in two coaches who will then pick thier teams one by one or something???

Ohhh ima run with this idea!!!!

Let's do it.

Any way we could get into the media bracket for Rip City 3-on-3 in the summer?

Just because your a baller doesnt mean we all can ball, but we might bawl when you kick our ass... lol.

Okay, so I need to reserve sooner than later to ensure that they all don't book up, but the beauty is that they need a firm body count 2 weeks in advance. After that if we decrease in body count we still pay the number reserved, but we can increase the body count up until the day of..to an extent. A few more people not an issue, a lot more people and it could get cramped in the suite portion if everything else is booked up and they cant expand our section.
With that said, here is the updated list...

Confirmed:
Myself
Sly
Eastoff
Chris Craig
Dan Marang
Stren
BlazerCaravan (possibly +1)
Bones Jones

Maybe's:
Bbert
Wookie
RipCityBoy
UncleCliffy'sDaddy
BlazingGiants
VanillaGorilla
Harry's Raincoat
HomerLovesKoolaid(spiked with LSD)
Jon

that's 8-9 confirmed and and 9 maybes. I am confident that we can book the minimum 12 people, but I will hold off another week or so to hopefully get a few more confirmed from both, other people and the maybe list.

I have to reserve on my CC, but there is a 30 day cancellation policy, so we would have up until March 8th and then the shit gets real.

Did that once, about 4-5 years ago. Denny put up the entrance fee, we went 2-2. Still got the T-shirt (in fact, I wore it to last night's game).

Not to change plans but...

Putting this on your CC makes me very nervous. Over the years I have organized multiple forum parties/events and lots of people say they will go but often times they don't. Only the suite and the Schonz & Rice Meet and Greet have had everyone show up who said they wanted to go and I believe that was only because they got free tickets to the game.

I did talk with the Blazers and they have some viewing parties coming up at BWW and Blitz. Those events the Blazer dancers show up and give out prizes. Is that something we want to look into? It would prevent you from getting stuck owing a couple of hundred bucks on the CC, lol.

Thats a valid point. Maybe its something where I can put it on my CC but everyone has until March 1st to get me payment or I withdraw the reservation?

We can also look into your idea. I like the mingling while partaking in a blazers game, whether it be live or on a big screen. Maybe we do something else for now, and Ill stay focused on getting the suite for an actual blazers game for next season. we will start planning the second the schedule comes out.
Im not sure what BWW and Blitz is though. I'm not interested in attending a meet at some BigWildWoman's club though.
Are they during a blazer game? I'm assuming not if the dancers are there.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Bww is buffalo wild wings. The best sports bar (even though they are a chain restaurant) in the Portland area

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

^check yo street cred, FAMS.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Food is great at bww, huge screens. It's the best place to watch ufc fights after the refectory was closed. Attractive waitresses. Plays every nfl game on football Sunday. What's not to like?

Can we reserve a private section with a big screen?

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Meh.

But I guess if your wife also enjoys the waitresses, I understand your point.

Nope.

She does indeed. Ate at bww a couple weeks ago with my old college roommate, some friends and wives etc. and she pointed out a waitress to us with a juicy booty.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Does she bring 'em home?

Dancers don't go to away games.

Their Jamaican Jerk wing sauce A+

Haha nah. "look but can't touch" is the saying

I like the dry rub seasonings. But Asian zing, parmesan garlic and spicy garlic are great imo too

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Some one can get there early and save some tables.

 

[Orion Bailey]

UP to you guys. Pay more for more privacy at big al's or keep it less expensive and deal with the public at Bww.

Im down for either really, because honestly I want to do the suite again. That was epic in my book.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

I didn't have you pegged as a dry-rub guy. Asian zing, yes, but dry-rub......? To each his own, I suppose.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Then what's the point to BBW?

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

when they first started out, they advertised their website as www.bigals.com..... bigals..... bi gals..... needless to say there was a lot of complaints and confusion. edit: now it is a pet/aquarium supply website.

now it's www.ilovebigals.com. who doesnt love bi gals?

side story, my sister dated the owners son in high school. i always give her crap for breaking up with him and marrying a complete jackass.

Was waiting for someone to point this out. We had a few members back a while ago that were getting into saltwater tanks. Big Al's was a solid place to buy stuff from, though they've turned into a big pet online warehouse.

[kjironman1]

I'm a maybe on that one. Just a little far out there for me?

 

[BonesJones]

So did we abandon this idea?

 

[BlazerWookee]

If my car's fixed in time, I might make the trip...

 

[Chris Craig]

Is this still on?
