It's time once again for the big game.

Sunday Feb 6th.
Kickoff is at 3:25 Pacific
Party starts at about 2


We will have it up on all 13 screens in the house, including the GINOURMOUS 134" monster.

As always, there will be munchies and stuff, and the full spread.

Come one come all. (Please give me a heads up though so I can make sure I have enough of everything.)

If you haven't been here before, contact me for directions.

[flash]

just two and a half weeks to go

i'm working hard to have something cool finished for everybody to see, but it's really going to be close

who's coming?

No one's showing up until you change the title of this thread to something along the lines of " the big american football championship game " , because they're all living in fear now due to NFL's bizarre statement the other day that no one is allowed to use the term superbowl , not just in print but you're not even supposed to utter it, nor are you permitted to mention the names of any teams, only the city name where the team resides is ok, unless you receive expressed/written permission fron the NFL to do so.. or they'll go after you. What's bizarre about the statement is that they said this extends to the common public, anyone and everyone, facebook postings, emails, etc.. not just organizations and such..
Yeah, good luck enforcing that rule..

Really NFL ?! Get your heads out of your asses and you too may be able to enjoy your own " big game " !

And they are selling $200 tickets to stand outside the stadium and watch the game on TV's.... Sounds like a bit of greed at the NFL..

[flash]

and this is exactly what's wrong with sports today

[DaveN]

It's all about the game, right?
I say we take all their cloths off, put them in a stadia and make them compete for the fun of it. Very old, novel, concept but I could do without the meat and 2 veg show Afterwards, the losers get to pet the lions; here kitty kitty kitty, nice kitty, niiiiice kitty.

Edit - I forgot......SUPERBOWL
One other stupid thing, the Canadians just banned "Money for nothing" from the radio because one person complained, after 25 years, that the use of the word "faggot" wasn't very nice. Sometimes I don't like being known as the nice people cut it makes us look, well you know...

Sorry Flash, end mini rant endit

lol - no worries - i rarely watch the game - it's really just a reason for us to throw a gathering

and then there are the commercials.................

[Langley968]

Sounds like someone is waiting for another "wardrobe malfunction"...

[DaveN]

, You lower mainland guys crack me up.

almost finished with the shopping list for the food and stuff too

lol - now - who is playing this year?

Thanks for inviting all of us (what would you do if we all showed up! lol). It sounds like it's going to be a helluva party. Like you, I usually find the commercials more entertaining than the game.

More importantly: Only 22 days until pitchers & catchers report!

[Monstrous4Banger]

Go bears!!!!!! I live in Phoenix, LA is a bit of a drive.

[flash]

lbpesq - i can handle about 50 no problem - more than that, and i would need a couple of hours to set up for it - i have done 80 here before though

monstrous - just a hop skip and a jump - i regularly bounce back and forth across the country for these events

[Monstrous4Banger]

Yeah I can make it in about 6 hours. I just took the 3.0 951 up to Kingman, and back. Cruised nice. Nows the time for road trips before I do the exterior resto.I might actually be in LA that weekend any way. Ill let you know. Might even take the 951, fresh motor, and suspension are lovin it.

" lol - now - who is playing this year? "

I'm pretty sure it will be Manchester United vs. L.A. Lakers.

You have no idea how close I was to joining as a surprise guest at the party ; had a scheduled Los Angeles and San Diego business trip that was initially set to start on that Monday following the Superbowl, so it would have been perfect and I was going to drive in.. but, it was just moved to a later date

[flash]

that would have been very cool

[flash]

lol - here's how out of touch i am

awaiting the final decision on the contestants before sending out he flyer, over the weekend the wife calls me to tell me that the steelers are playing the jets in the superbowl - so, the flyer goes out

uh - no jets

[Blau]

Looking forward to it Flash!

[flash]

just a few days to go - i really need a head count so i can do the shopping

if i already talked to you, i've got you covered, but who else is in?
