  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

might as well start a separate thread.

as of now I have about 14 confirmed attendees. some guys from the cigar shop might join us, but they are old. don't know how much interest they'll have in doing jaeger bombs and taking rips from the beer bong :bottle:

one might show up with his boys (youngest is older than I) and another might show up with his wife. this guy doesn't drink but his wife does, and she's pretty cool. they'll be fine as long as they have cigars to smoke.

john -- about how many beers do you usually burn through? I have a marine cooler and I fully plan on filling that sumbitch up.

We drank over 175 Sat! I usually buy around 70-100 and other people bring a case with them.

We have been having around 30 people, but that might be down with us not having a verified location. I will take my truck in and park it with you guys on Sat morning. My wife will be with me, so no crazy stories on me!!! HA! Clay will be with me and his wife is going as well.

What side do you want to set up on? Or do you want to decide on that Sat?

aren't you staying in the galleria area? we can assemble our convoy at the randall's on shepherd and west alabama. then we can head down kirby until we reach the stadium. no idea on where we plan on parking, that might be a game time decision. if we park on the stadium side of kirby we'll have the proximity factor going for us. but if we park on the other side, it would be easier for people to walk over if they don't want to pay the $20 to park.

I would prefer we pick the north fannin lot as people can ride the light rail in. but I don't know what the action is going to be like there.

I am at the Hilton Houston Southwest, which is 6780 Southwest Freeway. We can just meet up and drive in as a convoy. I want us to be easy to find, but also be around some Horns. Although I doubt there will be much of another teams fan base there.

man, you are going to be right down the road from colorado. think the wife will give you a kitchen pass to go "skiing"? :angel:

yeah, best thing to do would be for you to shoot up 59 to kirby and we'll meet up around there. then head south on kirby until we reach the stadium.

if colorado beats nebraska, they are in.

if they lose that game, and iowa state beats kansas, the cyclones win the tie-breaker because they beat colorado head-to-head.

we are getting a keg, but I'm going to have a cooler stashed away with beer in case we float it before we pack it in.

Work is hectic as fuck today with all of these claims!! Calgon take me away! Wow, that was old school and I don't know why it popped in my head.

I cannot wait for this weekend. Let's get this hammered out. Parking? Talked about passes, but I am unsure. Food? Jager? Strippers? KY? Midgets? Jello? Boomerang?

'tard girls = ebola horn?

john we haven't decided where we are going to meet up before the game to roll in. probably this kroger on kirby. scott are you going to drive in, or do you and nicole want to meet up with us in the morning and jump in one of the trucks so you don't have to pay for parking?
