  1. Hung out at Weicheks back then. Tailgated there for the 1pm games , left about 3:30, in our seats 4pm. Think I sat in twenty seats that day! Had views from all over the stadium! Back at the bar prolly at 7:30 even though it was a 4pm game! Loved it!
  2. Damn, I absolutely LOVED everything about that game and always list as a top 5 day Amat the stadium for me. Ricky “ Squeaky” Porter went to college with me at Slippery Rock !
  3. not to that money grubbing lazy ass generation...I kid, i kid!!!
  4. Get ready for male only diaper parties!
  5. Buy your own GD diapers. 😄 You wanted to get laid, this the price , same as it ever was.
  6. I will gladly claim that cause the clouds suck! Jesus, birthday freaking months now. hustlers and scam artists, every single one of em!
  7. Holy hell, I would be freaking embarrassed if I could not afford my own booze! hustlers and scam artists I tell ya.
  8. I mean, wtf has happened to our youth? Man, they think they deserve a freaking handout for every life event now Getting married? Let's have an engagement party so people can bring gifts. Not a bachelor party with some golf, poker and a stripper...has to be a freaking weekend away with your wedding party! Don't worry, they aint gunna pay for, gonna invite all my lesser friends and family to a "stag" party to cover the expense. Course there has to be a wedding shower in there as well, with gifts required Wedding week? Let's have rehearsal dinners that run 50 people deep, photos all over gods creation, buses , who cares...they aint paying for it. Gotta be better than Betty's was and show the best on the Gram! Now, we having a baby...a shower is not good enough anymore ...now there's a freaking diaper party, for the fellas only , so as not to hurt the poor young couple with the burden of actually buying diapers for the youngin. Screw it, I am opting out of all this madness..you want to get married, PAY FOR IT! AlL of it You want to have a kid? PAY FOR IT..all of it Damn hustlers is all they are!
  9. Never ever get up from the table when you are winning in a casino...house has the edge and you are only winning because of luck...stay till your luck runs out. Does not mean give it all back..means set stepped up amounts for when you leave . Up $1000? Leave if you get to only $800. Up $2500? Leave if ya hit $2000. Outside of Who Wants to be a Millionaire, it is almost a universal truth the public is always wrong. Everyone betting one side in a game? Bet the other. Everyone lined up at one entrance? Most certainly a better one to get in Everyone going left? Right most likely is the better way.
  10. OKay, bought the tickets. Felt sorry for @Augie so he is sitting with us so some poor Brit does not need to see his mug all day. At least I am used to it! Were staying quite a bit away from the stadium, over on the SouthBank. But this location and airbnb was more important than the 50-minute tube ride on Sunday to my wife! So that's where we staying!!!! @BritBilland @GunnerBill need some help with EPL stuff!!!!!!!
  11. My thanksgiving weekend as of now. Wed in DC Vs Caps, Thursday Thanksgiving in DC. Saturday in Jersey Vs Devils Sunday Bills in Philly Pretty damn good weekend, and taking Amtrak all weekend.
  12. One way for Helly to work. Trade them Levi and sign Helly to a 5 year deal. Only way it works. Not saying I would do it mind ylu.
  13. The dude who bought the rights for the DC area apparently has the rights to the entire US....i looked into the first time I had it DC, cause I am with you, think it would crazy popular anywhere it opened, and I wanted in!
  14. In the States, can always get it in DC, and only DC(well the DMV). Been open for about 10’years. Seems who ever has the DC territory has the rights for the entire US. So weird. Think they have about 10 locations now.
  15. So, on the other end of the spectrum is some really great restaurants! one we are particularly don of is the Cinnamon Club. really redefined Indian fine dining , been open for at least 20 years. Prolly went there first time in 2006, been back maybe 4 or 5 times. Wife was just there In April, still loved it. and don’t say ya don’t like Indian food till you have eaten there. I was adamant our first time I hated Indian food, left a true believer! There is a reason most critics agree the beat Indian food in the world is served in London. Over by Westminster btw https://cinnamonclub.com/
  16. This is the key to me..not just for the Bills..but to have on any game i want, when i want. Plus Redzone. Grandpa, cmon, its 2023. DTV is dead, look at your AOL chat rooms on your Blackberry its prolly all over them Text me, i can walk ya through why Youtube TV is great!
  17. late to this thread, and not reading 6 pages. But in short, I gots a black dog named Fitz And i gots a white dog named Taylor( wife a Hokie, but she would not allow me to name him him TyGod, so we settled on Taylor) Is that enough respect?
  18. hmm, so would this 60-year-old man!
  19. No booze cruise for grandpa’s like yourself. Maybe a morning porridge cruise for you and your ilk?
  20. E, couple of suggestions. 1) As @GunnerBilland @BritBill suggest, Tower is okay to miss .I am a history guy, did it first time to London, would not again 2) I love walking tours, and have been using this company since i first starting going to London in the 90's. Never had a really bad tour, but did a ghost tour with the kids and would skip that. They are great for the historic sites like Parliament and Westminster, but to me excel at the neighborhoods. Maybe you wife loved Notting Hill when it came out and may appreciate a guided tour around that neighborhood for instance. Olde Marlebone has been mine favorite over the years, granted it been a good 15 years since i have done that. Walks everyday of the week. https://www.walks.com/ 2) Think Gunner mentioned Imperial War Rooms...top notch if you love history. Get yourself there. That is part of the Imperial War Museums, and the IWM in London is prolly the best museum i have ever visited. Might be a bit much for wife if she not all into when combined with the Churchill rooms. https://www.iwm.org.uk/visits/iwm-london 3) London eye to me just a giant Ferris wheel. Plenty of views to be had around London...another one i would skip for sure 4) I am more of a history guy than an art guy, but the Tate Modern pretty freaking awesome. Free and paid exhibits. https://www.tate.org.uk/visit/tate-modern 5) Prolly dont have to mention, but there is some real junk stuff on the south bank where Tate Modern/Globe Theatre are located. Crap like the The Clink Prison Museum and such....you would get more satisfaction and enjoyment lighting your pounds on fire. 6) Last, we love to just spend some time wondering around neighborhoods, popping into place's off the beaten path for bite and a adult soda, finding great little shops and boutiques, and just whiling the day away. No need to have plans, jst $$$$$ 😜
  21. Guess this makes my decision for me, I am OUT!
  22. Yea there is Uber, but the taxis are fantastic too, especially if you have 4 or more people. Taxis can hold 6 , so don’t discount as an option. London taxis are an institution, and taking one almost always provides the added benefit of getting a free guided tour. Most of those drivers know the city and history better than many tour guides. BTW, the worm has turned on ride share Vs Taxi in my mind, and I find now that in places like DC and NYC taking a cab now is often much cheaper than taking a ride share. Cab companies knew they needed to modernize to compete, so new, clean vehicles, credit card machines that work and not discouraged etc. NYC cans were half the cost of an Uber when we were there earlier in the spring.
  23. we will prolly wait just a little while longer but get them before say August 15th or so. I don't think will drop much either, maybe 10-15%. But with 5 folks, that's beer money in the stadium!!!! Hoping the initial buzz wears off after July 4th weekend. Either way, once I buy them, l; l time I am looking at the prices!!!!! Aint gunna subject myself to that pain!!!!
  24. I am not worried , As my ridiculously rich friend @Augie says tickets really only a small portion of the all in $$$ and he has guaranteed our party of 5 tickets on him! we will wait, worst thing happens we have a great weekend in London!
