Batman Jones, in Houston, limited time only. 12/16-25; 1/5-10. Good news is, I'll be at Rudyard's Pub almost every one of those nights. And, given willing cf.net partners, I'll be throwing darts. Pick a date and sign up here to throw darts with the one and only Batman at the best bar on God's green planet.
I will do my best to make it out there at least once. I am below average at darts, but I love to play.
I'm the same way, Vengeance. I have good nights and bad. It's just an excuse to get together and hang out. If there's interest, maybe we can pick a night for a cf.net get together there. My cf.net going away party was a lot of fun, so I'm thinking along the lines of that. Maybe one night with a Rockets game on. We could requisition the upstairs gigantic TV (and two pool tables) and then after the game drown our sorrows and throw a few. Weigh in on which night's best.
i am the worst Darts player i know, you need to get HeyPartner to join you guys pretty sure we split the matches between us, and we all know he is bang up for Rudyards wish i was there, loved that pub
Oh, yeah. HP's gotta come. I thought you'd like Rudz. Don't know if you remember me recommending it to you that late night over keg beers. Wish you could make it too. I'll propose a date soon. Waiting to hear back from Chance about the Rockets tix he owes me. Any game night besides the one when I get his tickets will work.
Oh, and p.s. to Fatty: Yeah, they got Golden Tee, three pinballs, five dart boards downstairs and two upstairs. Also a huge beer selection, all very reasonably priced, and a full kitchen (Houston Press voted them the best burger in town a year or two back).
Regretfully, I do not plan on being in Houston over that time period. I am working on a project of SIGNIFICANT IMPORTANCE that requires me to be away. With regard to darts, I am an expert marksman.
Oh, come on Jorge. You're gone for the whole month? Show up for the drinks even if you're scared of losing at darts. You could tape up your hand and fake an injury or something. Whatever the case, I hope you'll reconsider. Falcon's: You too, you big lug. 12/17 and 18 are out for me - a play at my old theater and a wedding. 1/5 is out for me as I'm trying to cash in on my Chance tickets that night vs. Phoenix. Looking at the schedule, and leaving out league nights (Mondays and Wednesdays), that leaves precious few games we could watch together. Pretty much down to the Lakers or the Nuggets on 1/7 or 1/9. Or we could blow off the game viewing and just have a night of darts, pool, pinball, Golden Tee, beers, drinks and food. Tuesday the 21st might be good for that. Weigh in.
Fake an injury? Moi? Ok...granted, that was 6 months ago. Regardless. The drive is just a tad out of the way.
I'm taking a WELL DESERVED two week vacation from work starting 12/17 until the new year. I will definitely be able to make it out.
Awesome, drapg. That makes: Batman Vengeance R2K Fatty DonnyMost RocketMan Tex drapg There will be more for sure and I'd be very surprised if HP didn't make it out too. Let's try and find a date that works for everyone. Falcon's: Didn't mean you, re: the injury. Just re: coming out. That does look nasty though. How long's your drive? Jorge: Weak. Change your mind. Meowgi: Double weak. Change yours too. This'll be fun.
Still Rudyard's? Not Poison Girl? Suprised you haven't stepped to the times. I am having less and less patience with beer as I get older. It's so... slow. How can that bar NOT have a full liquor license by now? And darts...good lord. Jort city. Please tell me you don't have your own little case with precious feathered projectiles. Glad to have you back in cowtown for a while, Bats. Hope you have a good visit. Happy Holidays, and all that.
Hey pasox: So you in or out? I'm looking forward to checking out Poison Girl for the first time this visit. I haven't been back since they opened. What's the game situation there though? They got darts or anything or is it just a bunch of rockers drinking on the deck? And what exactly is the Rudz crossover? I think I heard Scott Butt and maybe the new Rudyards Scott and his wife were involved, but I can't remember how. But yeah, Rudyards. Since Catal Huyuk closed, that's my home bar. I'll be faithful as long as they stay open and as long as Lelia owns it. Anyway, all my favorite bartenders are there. And you must have meant Poison Girl re: the license. Rudz has had one forever. I do actually have my own darts, but that's just because they were a gift from the parents of an ex. I've never even used them. I usually throw the bar darts. I'm not particularly good either, but I do love to play. You coming or not? Say yes.
