The Inaugural Rowbot BBQ/Game!

Last time I'm gonna post about this, but I wanted to make sure we had updated info on top. 1 week away!!!

 

When: June 13, 2009, ~2PM/early afternoon

Where: User FrightenedInmate#2 and his wife have graciously offered their house for this 'Q. It is a mere 5 miles from Coors Field, so it won't be nearly the hassle of coming all the way out to Golden would've been.

How: I'll provide burgers and dogs and probably chips and soda. PLEASE bring a few bucks to pitch in to help cover costs on food/drink.

Who: RowBots and friends! Please post on the poll and then email me at the email address at the bottom of the page with your username and how many you'll be (like if you're bringing your significant other/spouse), so we can get an idea on food quantities needed.

Beer: That'll kind of be a play-by-ear thing. A few more bucks will either be spent by you to bring your favorite brew to share, or to pitch in more so people can make runs.

Why: Because we can can can!

We'll worry about tickets to the game day of.

And on June 13, 2009

Russ and I will combine for 2,000 posts in a game thread, since we’ll be the only Rowbots not at the game ;) .

I haven't been

around for a Saturday game since mid-August of last year and I won’t be around for this one.

You can go for the thousand, though.

I should actually be around on Saturday.

I wasn’t yesterday because I was at a concert. But next week I should be around.

Wish I could attend this year.

Poor planning on my part. Hopefully next year .
I won’t even be able to participate in the 2000 posts that Russ and oo_nrb plan on as I’ll be in Orlando that week end. Tip one for me.

I invited Ian Stewart's hitting coach to the Rowbbbqq!!

I hope he doesn’t mind me posting this email, but he mentions his favorite PR writers and that Beef Stew has been working through some swing issues:

ian finally listened to me last week. i have been telling what he was doing wrong for 5 weeks but he was stubborn and trying to work through it himself. now he is doing what i told him. therefore you get what you see now. i will have to meet some of you guys when i come out to denver this summer for ian’s game. like u, silverblood, poseidon’s fist and rox girl. maybe give you and the others an introduction to beef stew as well. it is always good to have you fans on his side.

It's not like he was writing Rowbot Roll call..

He was just listing his favorite, I’m sure you’re second tier on his list! ;)

Should we invite Geivett?

Listen, this signature line is a big part of who I am.

by frightened inmate #2 on Jun 9, 2009 3:32 PM MDT reply actions  

Of course we should

How we go about doing that, I have no idea, short of inviting him in the thread, but I’d rather not muck it up like that
