Blackburn / Man U is being televised on FSC Saturday, April 19th, at 11am CST I believe (or 12pm but I think that's the ET).

So for all those who wanted to come together and watch some matches, that would be perfect for me--especially because I know some of you are Man U fans and they're the most popular EPL team here and I know they'll pack in the fans...I would suggest Ginger's Ale House for this but I'm open to other suggestions obviously.

Also posted in the tumbleweeds of the Soccer section.

WHO'S IN?

Will your slumpbuster be there? Does she have any friends who can bust my slump?

BUMP!

I'll bump this again mid week if needed but just wanted to get a head count for this event.

Saturday, April 19th
Ginger's Ale House
3801 N Ashland Ave
Chicago, IL 60613

Show up between 10:00am-11:00am; I'll try to get there by 10:30am.

The game will start at 11:00am.

We can stay there all day if you want, but I can't get too crazy because I have a race the next morning. I want to be in decent shape.

You don't need to send a PM or anything if you're in, just reply to this thread.

Just remember, if they ask you to wear the ribbon, just do it, okay.

nicely done

So...just a quick update...

I called the place and a somewhat haughty irish girl picked up - apparently they do and they don't get crowded on saturdays, which didn't really help ("figuring out how crowded it would get is like figuring out how much is in a ball of string" is what she said) so i mentioned that man u was going to be on and she said they do pack them in so get there about a half hour before the game...

so i'll try to get there a little bit before 10:30am, and get a table...didn't ask if i could reserve one, i don't think they do that there, don't know...but i think if i get there before a half hour before the game starts we should be good.

so i should be seeing CLH, and his lovely wife, HHJ and his lovely wife, sometime around game time.

i will be easy to spot. just look for the one person sporting a blackburn shirt.

I will be sitting next to the Irish national wearing a soccer jersey with his face down at the bar.

i'll have on me red dr martens (the real good old ones made in england). most likely we will both have on united jerseys

I don't need to go to bed THAT early...I'm thinking I should get outta dodge around that time, though, and go sleepy around 9pm, then get up sunday morning at 5:30am with a good breakfast, ready to rock and roll at 7:45am for the 10k.

As far as tonight...um...yeah this is my life.

Well the rest of us will be in bed so make sure you post pictures

But you didn't answer the question about why you are not out and about tonight... I have about an hour of posts before they get too drinky....

I have a minimal to non-existent social life.

Actually I may have been invited to something tonight but I don't remember, and at this point, I'm too tired to find out...oh well.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Same here.

By the way, I survived the hank williams/skynard concert, but my wife didnt. We will still be there in a couple hours.

Zach, thanks for getting this together. That was a hell of a good game. The shock before the game... also good

The real fireworks took place long after you guys left, the details which escape me after many shocks (shots) and dead guy beers. The details involved Zach getting in a fight with a much bigger guy from Ireland as we were walking to the next bar.

Zack, wtf happened???
