There is this Cider Days thing going down on Walnut St. So basically I can't part within 100 miles of my apartment until its over.

What is this little shindin festival that is taking up my whole street?

Is it anything like Raytown's Round Up days? probably just as gay.

Oh, wow. This sounds gay as hell. I'd be pissed if it was surrounding my apartment.



Do you have a balcony? Invite some friends over, buy a couple thirty racks, sit on the balcony getting shitty and heckling passersby.
Damn, that sucks...I thought it might at least be a deal where a lot of the stands made good food.

OH - thanks for clearing that up.

All I know is when you cut your finger you soak it in cider.

"Cider Days"? I'd guess it's like Oktoberfest for Lightweights.

Cider Days is a great place to hang out if you enjoy pottery, stained glass or glass blowing. I think it's a perfect fit for you Zach.

LoL, I thought this was going to be a "Louisburg Ciderfest" Thread.

Its like 20-40K people come from all over drinking cider, eating cider donuts, having a cider orgy if you will, and they always have crafts.

I worked there for a month a long ass time ago, I dont drink the cider...i know what gives it the "tangy" taste.

Ebbet's Field will be selling beer.....then again you can buy beer elsewhere and avoid the $3 entry fee.

One or two well placed bird bombs may also help to expedite the dispersal of the crowd. :thumb:

If you're talking to your fists, there's no way I'm doing anything as crazy as come between you and your liquor. I'll just tell ya some other guy was talking shit about your moms... so as to reduce the chances you end up beating my ass.


i dont beat someone i invited regardless, there is a certain amount of protection that comes w/ an invite.
Though the *hey matt that guys talking about something* has turned out very bad on a few occasions.

Any cute 16 year olds working at the booths? You should try inviting them up for a beer.
No! No!

You ask if she'd like a Dicken's Cider.

Well, you have to ask her friend that.

"Hey, would your friend like a Dicken's Cider?"
Tell her she can have it in the can.
