TFCTFN - Too Friekin Cold To Fish Night - need to discuss a new venue or skipping a year.

I think it is important to have the hall right next to the hotel for those that want to have some adult beverages and not need to drive. That is probably my one rule.

So at this point looking for options and suggestions.

This is probably the point in time that the after party gets toned down.

Suggestions? Comments?

Only suggestion is have fire marshall bill get his own room. I loved my first one. Ol lady and i had. A blast was great having everything right there.

Is the change because the VFW isn't available, or because of the afterparty aftermath??

I believe we are banned from the hotel across from the VFW Hall due to excessive fire extinguisher play.

Tyler and I are in wherever it is. I will be volunteering to shuttle/drive a few people from south shore area again.

Count of me for 2 Cheese Cakes and 6 dozen rolls.

We just don't go for the group rate under S-B.Or change the name of the party. We could say we are Blue Fish.com They would have no idea.

Fairly sure they have some of our names on file and our photos though they don't always match the name. One manager onsite kept telling me my name was Rick Bomba... :devil2:

We should have it! Lets put our heads together and figure out how.

We also really need to relax the after party a bit - potential to quickly (further) devolve - as much fun as it is ;)

Well maybe being a year older will improve the behavior of some

I suggest we have it at the same place.
There are several motels and a couple hotels in the area of less then a mile. To make it easy to get back and forth there are tons of cabs that work that area.
Google hotels and motels and pick one, the show must go on.

"Maybe" is definatley the key word in that sentence sir! Although it's highly unlikely.

Surely one bad apple does not spoil the whole bunch.

I think the emphasis on having the hotel across the street is one big factor in people getting out of control. Yes , if people over do it its safer to have the close accomodations but is it the reason people go so overboard?

Don't they have some 14" Holiday Travelers behind the strip joint down the street Could fit quite a few people in one............how may total trailers they have is the question???

How about don't get drunk and drive home like most of us do.:fury:

You know that won't happen, Paul. Some people only get out for parties like this once or twice a year and they like to have a few drinks with friends. Just because one person doesn't drink doesn't mean that everyone else shouldn't either. Some people like to let loose once in a while and not have to worry about getting behind the wheel.

Yah really, potentially, no not potentially, we are all going to pay for what took place, even those who stayed away from across the street. I think if someone wants to stay at the hotel they do it without mentioning our group at all. It should be explicit that no one has the right to use SB.Com unless the boss approves.

Nah. I my case I just seem to get creepier.

Word.

Paul you clearly don't check in here enough if you think that happened!!

If anything it's gotten worse for numerous reasons. But That's a whole other thread.

Where do you guys usually have the party?

Naw,there were 2 at hand and looking back at what happened it was worth the extra $50:devil2:

Not everybody shares your sentiment regarding your investment. In reality the offender should have offered to reimburse those who didn't think it was money well spent.After all,if it weren't for his actions they would all be $50 richer. Instead he bought a jerky machine which is nice.

Absolutely agreed! That doesn't mean, nor give them the right, to act like a bunch of 16 year olds that just got out for the first time. Trust me, I have raised more hell than you can ever imagine but I never acted up with a group that affected a bunch of other people.

The case in point is this thread. If a certain few hadn't acted up we wouldn't be having this discussion.

You're 100% right. I'm usually the designated driver so I see all kinds of stupidity when I'm out for the night. Not to say I haven't been a participant in some of it, but I've never been kicked out of a place or been arrested (at least not since I was a teenager).

Im in wherever it is, if it happens. There has to be another location that has a hall within stumbling distance from a motel.

I google mapped vfws' and overlayed hotels and motels and theire are none within short walking distance.
Note that not all VFW halls have working kitchens like we have in Fairhaven

Those that want a nice hotel with all the extras see the Hampton Inn in Fairhave, MA 1.5 miles. Priceline shows a cost as of now for $109 DB

How about Feb 25th, the longer we decide the chances that the date that is agreed upon may not be available at the VFW. There are only so many weekends available and plenty of other people booking halls.
Lets get this show on the road and pick a date.

Yeah,I know.It wasn't a planed investment and I honestly really couldn't care,it's water under the bridge.we all had a great time that night and so what if some of the crew came undone.
Ship happens.
Chris ya gotta get the facts strait Brotha!You keep referring the problem was done by one person,but actually it was two .You would of known that if you where there when it happened.....But you weren't,so let it go.

Would be a shame if we didn't do it because some can't even drink responsibly enough to drive a mile and a half to a hotel if they want to stay over. Call a cab!

If I was hosting in my house? yes - maybe. But this is at a hall, with a bar run by the hall with a hotel across the street. plus several DDs. Optimal? No. Sufficient? Maybe. Legal? Yes.

:rotf2:

This has become a stupid azzed discussion. If you need an excuse to get chit house, go do it the night before and show up at this event feeling like crap. Besides being a get together, it is a fundraiser for the site. If you think getting drunk is more important than helping maintain the site, you are going to have a problem with me... and a few others here as well, I'd bet. Don't need MPs, we can police our own. You want to get chitfaced, go somewhere else. You have a problem with booze, get some help. You can PM me if you want to go down that road.

Plugfest is 8-3 you'll have plennty of time to get to TFCTFN

RISSA is on Sunday too.....or Go Early on Saturday....maybe leave at 3....plenty of time to get to TFCTFN

And I wasn't just thinking of me making it....the PISC show is our major Fundraiser too.....thinking about people trying to make both in the same day...thats all....figured you threw out dates of events coming up I'd throw that out too....

I'm checking my scout schedule now. I cannot do TFCTFN on the same days as Plugfest or a show. Tried it once and it was tough...

Feb. 25 sounds like a good date at same venue.
Every one can select their own motel.
PS I was there last year and hear a small
commotion outside my room. I fell back
asleep and missed fire trucks. I don't think
the boys misbehaved at all. It was the women!
They done it all!
:jump1:

Hey Boss, Make this a Sticky.
Merry Christmas

I live no more than 10 minutes away from the VFW, if guys need a ride to a hotel/motel up the street -- I'll drive.

Would be a shame if we didn't do it because some can't even drink responsibly enough to drive a mile and a half to a hotel if they want to stay over. Call a cab!

Funny how most of us will walk 3 miles for a fish but won't walk 1 to possibly not take a life(s)... Or find a DD


with that said we should say we are from SOL :buds:

Yeah,
I'm going to try to stay across the street and have Matty book the room. I have nothing to say about last year, except I booked the rooms under my name. Last time I do that.

As Matty is and ex-ninja Army Ranger that wouldn't show you his ID unless someone made him...I think I am safe.

Seriously, though, if there is an issue, cabs are the way to go. Best investment in the world. I say the 25th.

Later,
Rick

And there is no way we can miss this year...It's the 10th Annual!

And by the way, they may have license pix on file...or maybe even some sort of scanned image, but there is no way that a little, independent hotel has enough $ to pay for some sort of facial recongnition software...they might get a hit on your name...maybe...but not the face.

We need to have it for sure. There has to be other hotels within a reasonable distance. I dont care what the date is i will be there.

Will you north shore guys come down after PISC?

Feb 25 is PISC and 26th my kid goes from Cub Scouts to Boy Scouts, Mar 3rd is Plugfest, Mar 10 is RISAA. Feb 18th is usally out as a Bomba religious holiday.

Will you north shore guys come down after PISC? .

Possibly....gotta wait til it gets closer to see whats going on


26th my kid goes from Cub Scouts to Boy Scouts,


Holy Crap...already...man time flies. Congrats

John. I will be there this coming Tuesday however I have doubts they are open on Tuesdays but I will call them today to find out for the hours of operation.
Once a mutual date is decided then we can figure out how to reserve the hall.

March 24 MSBA Show

March 17 looks good

Bomba is out for 3/17, as well. I have Dropkick tickets in Lowell. Sorry guys!

You think the 17 is a good idea? It's friggin' St. Patrick Day. There are more drunks driving around on 3/17 than on New Years Eve.

St. Paddy's is bad enough when it falls on a Tuesday.....Saturday :shocked:

St. Paddy's is bad enough when it falls on a Tuesday.....Saturday :shocked:

That's what I'm sayin':buds:

It is not the drunks that St. Patrick's day attracts but TFCTFN would not be successful without the both Bomba brothers.

Most people that drink when St Patrick's Day is on a weekday drink on weekends. I don't see a dramatic surge with drunks on the road unless your one of them.

Where are we now
FEB 11 or APRIL 1

"I don't see a dramatic surge with drunks on the road unless your one of them."

You may be one of the few on the Board that don't know that I don't drink. I use to but have been sober since 11/3/99

^^^ I didn't know that, good to hear you have been sober, besides nobody can fish as hard as you being half in the bag.
Anyway, my statement wasn't directed at anyone in particular but to make people aware.

Sorry - out cold sick. Habvent; been online much. Haven't been working much since the weeekend. Does March31 work?

Personally would rather see it sooner as the other get togethers are late Feb through March. RST, any chance of Feb 4, the night before the SuperBowl?

That sucks! Hopefully they put you back together better looking than before.....which shouldn't be too difficult fortunately.

Good luck with it, Mike.

That sucks, Mike. Was it a hockey injury? Good luck with the surgeries and hope you have a speedy recovery.

Just booked a room at the motel...no recollection of the last year!!!!


Bad news is Mike's face...uugh!

Seems like there's not too much buzz about the TFCTFN this year...we're one week away from the 10th anniversary of this epic event. Now who's going?

I'm in

In, it does seem to be pretty quiet this year.

maybe because it "isn't too cold to fish"???

'Course I'll be there. Just picked up the cheese cakes at BJs yesterday. Bringing my nephew, Team Sanchez. First time for him.

I'll be there. Just got back from the oral surgeon. They build a clear splint for my upper front teeth. Makes me talk weird but he said I'd get use to it.

I wish Redlite was going. We could compare scars.

Glad you're gonna make it there, Paul.

I'll be there. Hopefully I'll get some good footage for my new reality tv show, The Adventures of T.O. and the Aqua Donkey.

I'm putting those sand spikes in the truck right now. I'll have them with me. What the hell, its only been a year since I said I'd give them to you.

took a hockey stick across eyes.....
Pulverized the face.
Open fracture with cartilage stickin out.
Beyond shattered/ splintered nose. They removed most of cartilage below bridge before they sewed it back on cause so splintered.
In addition fractured all three orbital bones around left eye. Probably gonna require 3 plates to fix. Eyey ball and sight gonna be alright.
Crushed both sinuses and my left tear duct is mashed hopefully not beyond repair
Gonna be a long road with many surgeries ahead......
At least i can't smell the diapers anymore.....

Wow, your probably the only guy Lucic has looked at and said "at least my nose isn't that bad". Hope you heal up as good as possible. Get well soon.

I am nowhere near as bad as you. I have 22 stitches inside and out in my mouth. 6 lateral fractures of the upper jaw plate and 2 displaced teeth. Stitches and associated cuts and bruises are healing. I have a clear splint over 6 top front teeth that I must wear for 6 weeks while the jawbone heals. All in all not anywhere near what you are facing.
Best of luck Mike. Take you meds.

Dayem.....Mike. That much damage looks like an assault with the stick. Can't imagine it being a total accident. Sux. Now I'm not so sorry I quit playing at 45 yo. But I was wearing a half shield in the later years.(just what you wanted to hear) You should get a marketing deal with the face shield companies..... Ugh. Sux. Really sorry.

U sick, sick boy! Erin said it was supposedly pretty bad, and Charlton couldn't help you. Now I'm not the only one with a crooked nose. Kidding aside I hope you heal. If you need some beers to go along with your scripts give me a call and I'll swing by!

Ouch! I broke my nose twice, The first time the doctor did a great job fixing it. The second time I think he was pissed I wrecked his nice work and he just snapped it back in. Good luck with the surgery and I am really glad your vison is OK.

That looks real bad Mike

what did the guy who hit you say to you? "Hey, your face broke my hockey stick!" ???

Oh that looks sore! Best of luck with the recovery. Sports can be weird. You can play for years with no problem then bam you are nailed hard.

Yes - Have Name Tags

Why??? I know you. You know me.

I'm telling everyone my name is WESTPORTMAFIA.

Mike I keep hoping to see a "you should see the other guy" post... I don't play hockey but that seems a bit excessive! Good luck in your road to recovery, and same to you Piemma!

Probably won't get home till 7. Although its doubtful anyone will see this, what time does the main event run till? It's a 2h ride, but I'll try to make it down if there's still something going on (other than fd calls).

Redlite -

Sorry to hear that man. Wishing you all the best. NOT PREACHING, but I wear a full face mask while playing men's league hockey due to a previous eye injury. I see many guys get very hurt due to lack of even a 1/2 shield in my experience of playing men's league hockey over 20+ years. Pucks, sticks, deflections, on-purpose, not on purpose, doesn't matter much now how it happened. Feel better and wishing you a speedy recovery and get back out on the ice, after all your a hockey player.
