Meet Up 2016 meet-up thread

[Jhye Clark 13]

Flights booked for an upcoming game against a side that Danger used to play for. I have a knack of picking the right games to venture over the border to see - this one shapes up to be a ripper, based on current form.

That's a long way off.

 

[Strangled Cat]

That's a long way off.

Sure is. But July/August is usually the time of year I make it over. We'll cross that bridge when we get close, shall we?

The last time I tried to cross a bridge I got stage fright and froze.

You weren't trying to piss off it at the same time, were you?

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

You weren't trying to piss off it at the same time, were you?

How'd you guess?

 

[Strangled Cat]

How'd you guess?

I was the guy standing next to you pissing. One only gets stage fright when someone else is present.

Only rookies who have never experienced the joy of a footy trip get stage fright in that situation

I guess Nakia has never bee on a footy trip, then!

We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Yes, I've been on too many to be honest... sometimes I wasn't even playing footy at the time, nor was I involved with any club... kinda like a gate crasher.

I'd say you were more like a football club groupie.

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

I'd say you were more like a football club groupie.

I was a 'footballer' and a pretty disciplined one at that... I limited myself to 12 beers on match eve.

12 beers in Vic is very disciplined, indeed. Those 'pots' constitute as one beer - I swear my kid's baby bottles held more. Now, if we're talking about imperial pints on the other hand...

What's a pot? I only ever drink pints.

A pot these days is a green leafy substance.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Shall be there.

cats_09 you interested?

Not this time for me Bots, visiting my father in hospital beforehand.

I'll have to get my back-of-the-head retribution on cats_09 another time

 

[BotsMaster]

Fair enough.

I probst won't get there until bit after 5pm. cats_09 if you're interested, look for a guy that looks like this with an E.F.C. shirt:

 

[cats_09]

Who wears an E.F.C shirt to a Cats pre-game meet-up, and how do you guys let them get away with doing so - or are there just to pay for everyone's drinks?

 

[cats_09]

Not sure if anyone can help, but once I get there any idea who I should look for or where I might find the group?

That's cruel

 

[FredLeDeux]

That's cruel

Also, as it happens, not correct tonight.

 

[cats_09]

Hmmmm.... Can I think of an excuse

I honestly have no idea what I'm doing Saturday other than going to the footy that night, so I'll try to keep my afternoon free - just trying to work out how scary you lot would be in real life

Ok, so the good folks of bigfooty that I met today weren't so scary. I might have to try to make a few more of these

I could have told you that

I've been trying to get tickets to the game in Adelaide but it seems it's an impossible task
