Sounds like GoReds and I will be departing here around 4 or 415 on the 8th.  Barring any mass confusion at work here I will be able to get out by then by working through lunch. 

What time does the tourney start?  I would like to try and get a little golf in while over there even if I play in the tourney.

Malnu, you can go to your local sports store and rent a plastic case for your clubs. Im not sure they will except the trashbag and your clubs may get damaged. I should do this but i dont want to carry the damn things around.

Briz, where did you find the rates? I just received my phone in the mail and I still need to activate it in order to call the place...unless you can direct me to the page. The only page i found stated rates not available.

If I remember correctly, 18 with a cart was somewhere in the $30 range. 

I think bringing your own brew on the course was technically against the rules but they pretty much told us that nobody will really say anything unless you're acting like complete jackasses.  Of course, we were complete jackasses and still never heard anything.
Title: Re: 2007 National RBI Tournament Facts thread

Quickly I need to know if fireworks on the course is considered jackass-ery.

You would probably have to supply balls and stuff since she has only played once this year and there is nothign else in the bag.

So whats going on with the baseball game?  Who all is going?  When GoPonytailPacers and I get there, are we all going to get a $1 beer and hammer it?  Do they have a grassy area that we can all throw down blankets and have a nice picnic and catch homeruns?
Title: Re: 2007 National RBI Tournament Facts thread
Post by: Gantry on 06/06/07, 03:01:28 PM

Title: Re: 2007 National RBI Tournament Facts thread
Post by: Baines on 06/06/07, 04:17:52 PM
I was just getting ready to ask who all is going to the game because I know a lot of people won't get in until later Friday.

The plan is to go early because the game starts at 7:25 but I think the dollar beers are from something like 6 to 7:15, then it's regular price.

It's an older stadium with no grassy area or anything.  Last time we got a group of seats in a section down the 3B line that we pretty much had to ourselves, which was probably a good idea.
Title: Re: 2007 National RBI Tournament Facts thread
Post by: Briznock on 06/06/07, 04:20:48 PM
Agreed.... Sounds like GoStrassy are going to miss the cheap beer then.  We are scheduled to arrive at the park right at first pitch.....

Tickets range from $6-10.

SalBando mentioned the other day that he has a buddy who could hook us up with 4, but I'm assuming we'll have more people than that and will want to sit together.

if TBT asks anyone or calls anyone or finds someway to access dee-nee will you tell him i arrive at 8:44 pm and i have no idea what gate. I suppose the best way to do this is for him to head to the airport and just meander around until i land and i can tell them where im at if his phone works or whatever.

He never responded to my text so i have no idea if he received it. That is all.

Something else just popped in my head - didn't the girl that met us out at Larry's work at the ballpark?  I think she was selling us beer, then met us at Larry's the next day with her buddy who was building a NES out of wood.  Anyone remember her name in case we see her at the park tomorrow?

Post by: Attezz on 06/08/07, 03:06:40 AM
There was also time spent spitting game at her outside the bar, which ended in a maybe fifteen minute conversation with an old, dirty, hippie type man who had once been to North Dakota.

I still say I should have got his digits though.

Brandon Claussen will be at the Clippers game tomorrow, and if Baines/GoReds don't spend at least half an hour angrily heckling him, I will be severely disappointed.
