Yankees Again... it's a definite go!

[JPiZZiJP]

Okay, tickets are a go for the 28th... 12 seats available. The list below is the ABSOLUTE list. Can everyone who's on it reply and confirm whether or not they are going, and as well, post your e-mail addy and a cell phone #? I want to put together a list for this event, this way everyone can keep in touch with everyone else.

As well. travel arrangements and/or lodging need to be worked out. It seems the general consensus is that most people don't want to stay overnight (which is just fine), but I would be down for some drinking afterwards (and I think j0n is down with that too. hehe)

Anyone not on the list as of right now, is on a first-come first-serve basis with regard to this post, however I have say on some of the spots because I'm waiting on responses from my friends if they can make it or not.

So, send a reply with your name, e-mail and # (or PM it to me if you don't want it in this thread).

Can one of the mods sticky this perhaps? I suppose this is technically an NJFBOA meet, given the # of people from here lol

OLD POST BELOW
----------------------------------
Hey all,

I have a friend that works for the Baltimore Orioles. Recently he got me an executive suite when I was down in Baltimore 2 weeks ago, and he's extended the offer to me for an executive suite at the Yankees - Orioles game during the series at the end of June (27-29). I can get a max of 12 seats he said, so I'm working on seeing who, out of my friends wants to go. I doubt I'll have the full 12, so I'm extending the offer to my "extended" group of friends.

If anyone is interested, please let me know which date works best for you. All games start at 7:05 PM, so also figure 3 - 4 hours of driving time down to Baltimore. As well, you should plan on staying afterwards for some hardcore drinking in Baltimore that night!

PS: No gurantees I will be able to get everyone a spot.

Put me back on the list. I'm going (assuming there's room). I'm staying at my aunt's that nite.

Anyone driving a van that'll hold all of us? My aunt has a parking pass for the hotel next to the stadium that she is willing to let me use. But I don't think it's fair I get to park for free and everyone else has to find a spot and pay. So lemme know.

[kamikaz]

I'm supplying the van..just need to know where to pick everybody up at :)

Well, I know I"m the last to be met since I'll be coming from work in Philly, but I plan on driving myself since I"m staying. I may, however, be getting out of work early and heading down myself. In that case We could meet at my aunt's house, leave the cars there (if we can find enough visitor's spots, she lives in a condo complex), and take the van into the city.

looks like i may be driving down so that adds slots to santos's van...jus an fyi

[Fasterthanyou]

I'm still good. Tim, Justin, Kelly, and the rest of the Ewing crew, who's driving if anybody? I could be the driver for 5 other people comfortably (leather seats in a new mini-van. I don't mind being a designated driver when we're down there, it's all up to you guys so let me know.

We know Kelly isn't driving. And they won't be taking Justin's car. So it's either Tim or Karen or both. :)

Well the Mustang will only seat 2 comfortably, and the Alero isn't much better.

I vote Jon's minivan, and claim 2 seats for Kare and I.

- Justin

[ShitOnWheels]

Ok, I know this was discussed in the other topic....but what time is everyone looking to leave? I think 4:30 was what was said in the other thread. Any chance of going earlier? I know people have work and such, just tryin to figure out what I"m doing, so that if I'm waiting in philly i can figure out where is the best place to meet (I like to plan these things ahead of time ;) ).

[ShitOnWheels]

Oh, and my aunt has 2 guest beds (well, 1 bed, it's one of those trundle beds where there's a second bed underneath)...if anyone needs a place to stay, i can ask. can't guarentee anything tho.

[Tru2Chevy]

Kare and I are both leaving work around 1:30 that day.....what time / where are we meeting?

- Justin

[Fasterthanyou]

I'm not working all day Tuesday. So somebody come up with a time and place to meet in Ewing.

[kamikaz]

I'm just waiting for Joe(JPiZZiJP)to tell me where and what time to pick him up.

Later,

Santos

[NJSPEEDER]

i am thinking the easiest thing we can do as a group i smeet at one of the rest areas on rt95 in maryland.
i know the second one you come to going south has a fairly big parking lot. i think it i scalled maryland house. does that sound like a good place for the whole group to meet?
just have to come up with a time :)

later
tim

[kamikaz]

I'm off all next week and got no prob leaving at anytime.also meeting on some rest stop sounds like a good idea,that way we can all stroll in together.
Joe,How many people are we taking with us from your group?

Later,

Santos

[ShitOnWheels]

Meeting at a rest stop is cool, but we need to make sure we meet at the same one. I actually think the first one in MD is MD House...there is one in DE that you might be thinking is the first in MD, though I could be wrong.

Now, we have to prepare for traffic and such. Game starts at 7, I'd preferably like to get to the park around 5:30 or 6, only because I probably will need to eat before passing out, and down behind the outfield is a lot of good places to get a bite. I"d also like to drive to my aunt's first if I can to pick up the parking pass, and it takes about 15-20 minutes to get into the city from her house.

If meeting at like 4 at the rest stop is too early, I can always go down on my own and meet yas at the park or something. I'm assuming no one will be riding with me since I"m staying, but like I said, I have room for one to stay with me at my aunt's.

So yeah, I would suggest a meet time of 4 at the rest stop. If it's too early, I'll meet yas at the park, I've got at least Justin and Tim's #s...assuming they'll answer when I call ;)

edit, of course, after thinknig about it, I could always pick up something to eat at the rest stop...would make sense, wouldn't it? ;)

[Tru2Chevy]

Jon (FasterThanYou) is going to cruise down to Ewing at some point in the early afternoon and pick up at least Karen and I.

Tim, are you cruising down in the minivan with us? What about Kelly?

- Justin

[ShitOnWheels]

K, just talked to my aunt, and Tim was right, second rest stop in MD is Maryland house.

She mailed me her parking pass (she's on disability for a herniated disk at the moment), so I don't have to go there before hand.

So, anyone decide on a time yet? Anyone wanna meet me in philly and go to the rest stop together?

I'm willing to drive people now, too, since the brakes will be done on Monday.

[Tru2Chevy]

Ok, so Jon has offered to drive the minivan (leaving from Ewing). Who wants a seat?

1. Jon
2. Justin
3. Karen


Kelly? Tim?

- Justin

[ShitOnWheels]

Have we decided on a time to meet up? I need to know when I need to be down there so I can figure out when to schedule my last visit for the day. :)

[NJSPEEDER]

some recent developments at work have me unsure if i will be able to make it to the game tomorrow. prolly better to say doubtful that i will be able to make it.
sorry gang.

tim

[Savage_Messiah]

So there's a spot still?

Who's coming back same night?

What time are people leaving NJ?

If it's still available I can go...

[JPiZZiJP]

Yes, there is an open spot now...

Most people are coming back the same night I believe.



You live up in Wayne, so it might be a good idea if you drove down to central NJ (Perth Amboy) and left with Kamikaz and j0n and me from his place. He's taking a conversion van down, so there should be room for all.

BTW... shottie on the van tomorrow. :P

I think I"m the only one staying down there.

I still have to pack some clothes, lol.

[JPiZZiJP]

Just talked to Santos (Kamikaz)... we're all leaving from his place at 2 PM tomorrow, so anyone else that wishes to join can call me for his address. If we leave promptly at 2, we should expect to be at the Delaware rest stop around 4ish, and in Baltimore by 6ish (my predictions, traffic based lol).

If we don't meet up at the rest stop, we can all meet up at the stadium at the pavillion on the first base side...

Call me if you have any problems and can't find us and I can meet up with you at the stadium to get you your tix.

~Joe

[Savage_Messiah]

Should be fun times tomorrow

[JPiZZiJP]

Oh one other thing... if you are going, bring a decent amount of cash or so for food and beer and whatnot at the stadium... the prices are steep :) But i rationalize it this way and figure... the box itself would have been several grand, so the high food prices are actually justified I suppose. Beers were about $5 a pop, but you have to buy in 6-packs. fyi.

~Joe

[ShitOnWheels]

I won't be drinking, and I haven't been paid yet (long story) so I don't have much money to spend on food. I'll be mooching off of everyone else ;)

[JPiZZiJP]

FYI... I plan on mooching as well. I got the tickets dammit hehe :P

j0n better be buying me at least a 6 pack. he's got 3 of the 12 tix! hahahaha

~Joe

[JPiZZiJP]

Plan is this: We are all going to meet up at the first rest stop in Delaware (The first one right after you go over the delaware memorial bridge) around 4- 4:30. This will give Genie a chance to meet up with us all, and the north jersey crew to take a pit stop.

~Joe

[Fasterthanyou]

Sounds good. I guess I'm driving only 2, that's fine by me.
Justin, I'll give you a call tomorrow when I wake up to get a time on when I should stop by your house.

[Tru2Chevy]

Looks like Tim isn't going, still waiting to hear from Kelly. If you see this, be at my house by 2. I'm getting out of work at 1:30, and Kare will already be home. I'll know before then whether or not Kelly is coming with us.

::edit:: Tim is definetly not coming. He's gonna be stuck at work until at least 5pm.

Good times, good times (except the final score)...

Besides the fact that the Orioles won in the bottom of the tenth with a leadoff HR, Baltimore = CRAP (please update the crap list accordingly)

- Justin

[ShitOnWheels]

WHat time did you guys get home?

[JPiZZiJP]

We got back to Santos about 3:30... j0n and I didn't make it back til about 4 am.

Adding to the CRAP list...

Savage_Messiah asking... "Do tractor trailers have driveshafts?" :kneeslap:

~Joe

[j0n]

:lol: but it was more like....

"even if a trailor of a tractor-trailor was raised you couldnt drive under it cuz you'd hit the driveshaft!"

[Tru2Chevy]

:lol: but it was more like....

"even if a trailor of a tractor-trailor was raised you couldnt drive under it cuz you'd hit the driveshaft!"

It's trailer - not trailor.

Prevost dropped Kare and I off at my house at 2:40 - we made pretty good time.

Eh, 3+ hours isn't "good time" in my book. I can go from my house to my aunt's in 2.5 :) I made it from her house to work in 2 hours including a 15 minute stop at the rest stop for food and gas ;) But it could have been worse time :)

How's Kare functioning today? ;)

[Fasterthanyou]

I don't even know when I got home, sometime after 3am.
Taking 95 was a mistake. It was 55mph most of the way and we hit road work 1mph crawling for 30-45min. I should have taken 295, oh well.
As for the game, it was decent up until the end. The 2 home runs in our section was cool.
They hated us but I think it was out of fear. Some loose toungs but all in all the trip was worth it... even without the exc suite :) .
Jason Giambi got 2 errors or at least he should have earned both of them. Just because the through wasn't perfect doesn't mean you should let the balls go by you. Pull off the bag and keep it a single... he got replaced with Tino but the damage was already done, they tied it up using those errors.
Arod made an amazing out at 3rd where he was avoiding the slide, diving over the player to catch a low ball and keeping his foot on the bag.
Oh, and on the way to the game I scrapped some bitchs BMW suv because she wouldn't let me merge over into the toll lane. It was just her side mirror but I got her good, no damage to my sideview :twisted: .
Oh, and don't get me started about finding a parking spot... all I have to say is Baltimore = Crap

Like Jon said, we were sitting in traffic for 40 mins, so I say we made pretty good time.

Last time i texted her at lunch she was about as dead as I was. No time for a nap this afternoon either :(

I just had my nap :) I'd be falling asleep in class tonight if I didn't get that nap.

Eh, I suppose it could have been worse, heh. For reference next time, for you guys who go 95, you know where the the split for 95 and 495 was? Take 495. Much faster, speed limit is 65, and it dumps ya back on 95 just below Philly. That's the only reason I made it to philly in 2 hours.

Yea that traffic BLEW... that's when jon said "im walking", if I had known you guys were behind us I would have kept the doors locked and tortured your car with his presence :lol:

Shut up about that driveshaft thing... it was late and I was tired ok...

[kamikaz]

Big Thanks to Joe for the tickets.it was nice meeting all of you.next time we'll bring more yankee fans and start a BIG riot over at baltimore.j0n,no pics of the fart can exhaust or your gonna get bitch slapped by the BIG girl and kase,don't worry we'll find the driveshaft under the trailer one of these days :wink:

OBTW,who ordered the triple wing with cheese :lol:

Later,

Santos

[Fasterthanyou]

Yeah, we were right behind you guys until the last toll (I got a shorter lane).
I was thinking 495 would have been quicker but I second guessed myself. It's like my test scores, I second guess myself and I'm always wrong, lol.
