RebKell's Junkie Boards

[Queenie]

La madre and I are training in, so anything Jersey-side would have to be accompanied by a lift from a kind fellow traveler.

There's a Charlie Brown's Steakhouse somewhere in that vicinity that would have screens, but you've got to think we need someplace that has at least six screens (two potential baseball games, two football games, the race, and then something we could beg for).

okay, that Championship place is out. they only have ONE TV, and that's a recipe for disaster.

the other place, Buffstone's is possible, since they have 8-10 televisions and they essentially promised me they would do something. but they are probably under the impression that I was representing more than like 3 people.

so -- how many people am I representing?? i told them if i was sure i had a certain number of people I would call back.

meanwhile, I got the Championship guy to recommend someplace else, and he said:

FIRST & TEN SPORTS PUB 1961 Hamilton Avenue Trenton, NJ 08619
Phone: 609-587-1028

I haven't found a website for them or called yet, but I think they're pretty big, and also about 1-2 miles directly down the road from the arena. they might be better than the Buffstone place.

anyone else wanna get in on this?

As for lifts from locals, well, I figured if I couldn't deal with walking 1 mile I would call a taxi. If a bunch of us split taxis, how much could they be to go 2 miles?? Plus, we'll need it back to the train station afterwards (and we can skip the light rail, saving a little time and toss that $1.35 towards the taxi fare) woo-hoo!

Sixth, thank you so much for coordinating this. Whatever you decide on locale, I will be there.

For my party, I am me plus 1 and will have room for 2 other people in the car for the train folks who might need a ride to the bar.

Looking forward to finally being able to meet some board members!

The Queen Mom and I are in, and we've got a car after all with room for two trainees.

Posting this in both threads this morning. How about we just meet on the corner of Hamilton and S Broad and go from there? It's basically the corner of the arena, I believe just behind the will call window (though I could be very wrong). I'll also try to check the board on my phone to see if anyone else gets a chance to update.

I don't know any of you guys but think I remember seeing a picture of Queenie from the fan blog. Will look for her. I'll be the 5'7" 30 something white girl with brown hair in a very orange UT shirt walking around with the 5'2" Asian girl.

We are in section 106 row AAA seats 9-10 if you want to come by.

I'm driving in with a friend, and while I mentioned the post-game possibility, I am beholden to her car.

I figure if we find one Rebkellian shirt, and we point to the shirt and say, very loudly, "Rebkellians to ME" we'll find each other.

Posting in both threads. I'll be at the game this afternoon. Dunno what the plans for for Game 5 though, since I'm riding with overandback... I'm just a grateful passenger, so whatever plans are after, I shall follow.

I'll be checking the board via my sidekick, to see if anyone updates.

[DetBookie]

gf and i will be there. should be easy to find. she's the only one brave enuf to wear a Detroit Shock shirt amongst a bunch of Rebkellians. i'll be in a green and gold aussie shirt. . .much safer. LOL would love to watch the championship game with whoever can make it afterward. we're in sec 114 row AA behind the aussie bench.
