Arrow TFCTFN 2009 - February 28, 2009

The Whatever Annual S-B TFCTFN 2009 is scheduled for February 28, 2009. The Best Damn Raffle and the Best Damn Winter Party.

I'm looking for good ideas for keeping the same or changing things up this year.

I would LOVEEEEEEEE if someone (T-Timber? Clammer?) was up for MC duties (could be paid gig )...

Ideas for Entertainment? Guest Speaker? S-B Speaker? More Chat? Ewoks? > Mike Laptew

Again, looking for ideas - thanks!

*** UPDATES ***

For those that know what TFCTFN is and for those that don't:

TFCTFN: "Too Frieckin' Cold To Fish Night"

S-B's annual bash get-together at the VFW hall in Fairhaven Mass, stumbling distance (across street) from Holiday Inn. Lots of people from the site (usually around 100) and some of the daring significant others, come to celebrate in a time honored manner to wish away winter for a good fishing harvest. Kind of like Groundhog day, with a bar.

We have some gag awards, real awards, big buffet dinner (managed by Bomba Catering) with food provided by the members, entertainment - this year provided by Mike Laptew - a MONSTAH raffle table.

It really is a great night, a chance to meet fellow S-Bers, help support the site, and stab a dagger into the heart of 'Ol Man Winter.

Ummmmm not to confuse anyone, but this is for 2009, correct?


Just need to clear that up, what with Fishaholic's "I'm in" reviving all the old threads.....

Hopefully this year some people will stick around for the real fun afterwards. Last year everyone raced out of the parking lot as soon as it was over. The hotel had the riot police on call and they didn't even get to beat anyone.

I heard about that...no drunk racing on the treadmills? Thats a bummer! We are crossing our fingers we will be there...

For anyone who has never been it is one of the best S-B get togethers there is!! There is always great food, speeches, raffles and prizes. There is a bar there with a pool table. Plus a hotel across the street with post party fun in the exercise room! Is the Foxy really within walkin distance?

Clams...No Dancing...You could hurt something old man.....

Yours truly did some treadmill racing, and falling. There was some weightlifting involved as well (UUGGH).

Without question the raffle table is unequalled anywhere. Best guys in the world on food. Even better people attending.

Wickets in, I'll bring some chicken wings. Hopefully some of the Conn sissy's will attend. Would be cool to have a NIB sighting also.
