In regards to Bash 2011
 

They say all good things must come to an end and it's with much reluctance I must announce that Nzoner will not be able to host Bash 2011.

Between a sick mother,weekly (instead of monthly deadlines) at work now and some additional traveling I'll be doing this Fall there is just no way I can take this on this year.

I do hope everyone understands and hopefully someone can step up and organize something for this season.

Thanks for the memories,and man have there been some good ones.

:deevee:

Thanks to you and the Mrs. for several great years of fun and great fun and hospitality!

Tell us when you're going to be gone and I'll organize one at your house.

Shit, and I was actually going to try to make it down again this year.

You suck! :p

liar

Hey! Maybe we could get together down here in Springfield!

LMAO

I was coming to this one.

HOpe you will still be up for a visitor during training camp.

It's still possible to pull this off - just gonna cost a bit more. Gotta find a sucker willing to take the load on their shoulders. FWIW, I'm no longer that guy either.

HEY. YOU SHOULD HAVE IT AT YOUR HOUSE.

Damn, and I was going to bring a 20 gallon batch of my margs.

Thanks for all the fun times, Joe and here's to your mom getting better.

Let me know when you're going to be up there.

Maybe Claythan or Buck can host this years bash?

If we all wanted to get together for a CP tailgate, I'd be more than willing to organize that. I know you have your spot, but our RV will be at F24 where it's normally at. I pm'd Monty to see if he'd be interested in getting together for an offical CP tailgate. If you wanted to do that also, and wanted to have it in your usual spot, I would still be more than interested in helping organize everything. What do you think?

damn, was looking forward to it.

someone can take over, but it will be nearly impossible to match the space and hospitality we got in STJOE

Damn. I was going to show up and kick Pestilence's ass.

You do realize that's me in the picture, right?

Of course. I was refering to you coming this year. heh;)

Bob Dole should have a map to Phobia's house available for download some time this evening.

Which weekend does everyone prefer?

I have a tiny apartment.

hell, I thought every game was an official CP tailgate. ;)

Whatever works for you, as long as you bring TommyKat up with you. :evil:

Shouldn't be a problem,in fact if any planeteer needs a place to crash and wants to save on hotel expense send me a pm.

I've got the acreage, if y'all take up a collection to pay Phobia to construct me a bitchin mancave with about 4 tvs, surround sound, and an ice machine, I'll do it.

I'm gonna need a place from Sept 1st - March 1st.


Which room is mine?

Cool. Thanks Joe. I'll give you a heads up as soon as we know what weekend we will be coming up. We of course will understand if other engagements might cause it not to work out though.

Yeah, CPers are always welcome to stop by, and several have on occasion. The tailgate for the playoff game last year was awesome. If we park our vehicles like we did that time, we should be able to create more than enough space. Or we could park both RV's the same direction along the road. My mind is already going a mile a minute. Please someone let me plan this...lol.

The jokes on you. I wasn't going to come this year.

Of course not.


Coward.

LMAO

do it for the San Diego game.

Damn,I might have to rethink this ;)

Seriously,thanks for the well wishes.

You were always too drunk to know that I came.....LMAO

I may be speaking too soon, but I might have a place for a party or something kinda like a bash. I work at a community center and we occasionally rent out the place for parties. It has a big tv and plenty of space and such. I'd have to look into it with my boss tomorrow if anybody would be interested.

NTTAWWT.

I thought of that. The MNF Halloween game. I want to check Monty's availability, and then I'll start a thread to see which date will work out best for people. That SD game should be pretty rockin' though.

Damnit, that's the only game I can't go to this year. Don't do that.

I'm only going to the SD, Pitt and Raiders games this year. As long as it is one of those. LMAO

Well, thanks for opening up your home to CP for so many years, and even making us Beakers feel welcome... good luck with everything, and hopefully the tradition will continue in 2012.


As far as this year, I don't have that kind of space available, but could provide a few places to sleep for out-of-towners.

burt’s pillowtalk

Pitt is a Sunday night game. That would be pretty cool. But I'm hoping to do it earlier in the season. Last year, everyone was so bundled up that it made it hard to eat, move around, talk, or recognize each other...lol. The latest I would probably recommend would be the Broncos game in mid-November.

hell.....I am just glad I came......

You're not making opening day? Not guaranteed, but I'm pretty sure I have an extra ticket.

If ya’ll organize a different location, might want to pay attention to hotels nearby. We don’t want a bunch of drunks getting on the road at 4am.

Amen to that!!!! Thanks Joe for all the memories. Hopefully we can pick them back up again next year.

Well...I was there. Of COURSE it was awesome. ;)

You're a smart guy.

There was no point in a bash this year, I couldn't make it anyway. :p

Joe, I promise I won't encourage people to burn stuff any more. :(




Seriously, thanks for all the parties and yours and the mrs hospitality. You guys have been awesome over the past what....like 7 or 8 years of doing these get togethers. I know you put a lot of effort into these things and we definitely appreciate what you did. Thanks for the fun times and memories. :thumb:

All the better. :p

If you're serious about hosting, I'll step up and help. Your setup would be a poor-man's version of Joe's but it would do in a pinch. Plus we could put out a pretty good spread between the two of us.

Only because you brought your wife.

She was really nice. Good catch, face.

Never been to D's place, but there's no doubt the food would be ridiculous.

Thanks for the memories Joe. Hope it all goes well for your mom.

JFC even the bash has a lockout. :p

luv, you'll want to make sure you do it early in the season while it feels like the Chiefs still have a shot at the division. Anything past week 8 and, well...you know.

Well, I'm sorta serious. The food we would put out would be no problem. The biggest problem I see is the tv-ness, or lack there of. I've got the one 60 incher in the cave, but it isn't HD. If nobody else steps up, I may offer it up (that vague enough). I've got a burn pile going right now that will rival the great barn burn of '08 .

You want the load elsewhere ehh??

I keed, I keed..

thanks for the buzzkill, buck... :cuss: :cuss: :cuss:

This was the year I was going to come and give you a hug. Darnit!

Funny, I thought that was the Chargers typical story.

Oh snap! LMAO

That joke would have been funny if it were even somewhat true.

I'm glad I showed up last year.

yeah, let me echo the sentiment: thanks for the great times joe and kathy!!!!

world's best host and hostess, by far... :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

I'm not even sure Joe had HD tvs. I'm sure we could get somebody to bring their flat screen for a weekend if they wanted it badly enough.

the only HDTV Joe has is in the Nascar room.

Yeah, that was one hell of a playoff run you guys had last year. :LOL:

Your team hasn't started off strong only to choke away the end of the season?

Actually they tend to choke away the beginning of the season then make a furious but failed run when it's too late to matter.

I guess you don't understand the meaning of typical.

Tell me the last time the Chargers have been out of it by week 8?

and apparently you don't understand the meaning of who focking cares,because losers are losers,be at the beginning or the end of the season.

My bad.

Lets see what materializes. I've got plans to burn the collossal pile sometime in october or november when it is cooler. A bbq and or chili event would be pretty fun.

Consider me available for both those games at a minimum. Barring any emergency stuff at work, I'm good to go for any of the games. :toast:

Sorry to hear about your mom Joe.
Very sweet lady. I enjoyed the 3 or 4 conversation we had.
We talked & laughed about home made root beer. Last time I was there.

Best of luck to your mom and all of your family Nzoner.

Great Bash last year Joe, glad I finally came. Bummer to hear you're not having it again, but I understand it takes a ton of prep to get it going. You're a great host, hope it will still happen future years.
