Staying at home with your beverage of choice is always a default choice when an away game is on TV. There is something about an easy chair, a cold drink and an available refrigerated or warmed up supply of desired food that makes such a choice easier - and less expensive.

That doesn't address my comment at all.

If there's anything I've learned over the past 2 months it's that most Blazer fans don't know how internet forums work and most Blazer fans completely suck at organizing anything.

Burn it.

I see where you're going with that, but the evidence in this case is actually to the contrary. Case in point: last year, when they distributed the shirts at Bartow, we WON.

Yes, you're ahead of the game.

Burn it.

Or use it when you wax your car.

In this case it's more that what BnBF types in may or may not have any bearing whatsover on the subject at hand, and often involves several other well known subjects instead.

I'll be in the Ham tomorrow and can meet yall for the 1st half. Just decide between Iron City and Good People and I'll swing by.

The view that "I don't see any connection so no connection exists" is entirely subjective for both of us. My information about state cuts in per pupil funding from the SETF was "off topic" -- until it provided the UAB President (with the blessing of the BOT, I'm sure) with some of the ammunition to kill the UAB football program this year. (I didn't see it coming either but that and other academic program cuts make some connection)

Iron City opens at 5. Going to Good People.

Damn! Well in that case I might go to J-Clyde instead, especially if they're still doing those smoked "Blazer Wings."

Officially banning myself from ever creating a watch party again.

Are they playing it?

Rule #1 of a viewing party, make sure the bar is open by the start of the game.
Rule #2, make sure they're carrying the game.

Jkjk, just picking on you. I'm at WOB then headed to Chuy's.

I decided to just say home and watch this one cuz it pretty much imploded. Both the party and the game, that is.

I drove to Iron City, read this thread, couldn't find a parking spot right at Good People, so I headed toward my parents' house in north Alabama. I stopped at the Branding Iron steakhouse in West Point, and they had the game on there. Watched almost all of the 2nd half there.
