    OK, you wanted it, you got it...here's the final drill for Saturday evening's get-together to watch the Portland game:

    LOCATION: Little Woodrow's Neighborhood Ice House, 2301 W. Alabama (between Kirby & Shepherd)

    Game begins at 9PM. Please wear some type of Rockets gear so we can easily identify each other. Post your RSVPs below & hope to see you there!

    Maybe we should create a "Get Together" forum?

    .... I'm wanting to atleast advertise on the site gatherings at bars/eateries for Rockets games.

    Clutch...I think your right. Could we perhaps expand the Videos & Memorabilia section to Videos, memorabilia & Get-togethers??

    PS: Y'all bring a camera to the Austin gathering so we can have a JPEG post-a-thon!!!

    Great idea Clutch!!,then we wouldn't have to wade thru everything trying to find "Austin Rocketball" references too.

    So, Clutch, if we have an Get Together forum discussing eateries and advertising them, are you going to make us take the Gordita's talk out of here.

    what's your take on that mango?

    One thing I'd like to do at some point as well is plan some get togethers that aren't at bars. I've just spent so many years in them as a musician that sometimes, I like the lack of smoke that comes with a non-bar type atmosphere. Also, the lack of alcohol could encourage younger fan and family participation.

    Just a thought for future consideration.

    Two points Jeff. First, I think this is an excellent idea. If there was a way to get a Rocket player or two to attend, even for a short time, that would be fantastic! That is something I would bring my kids to.

    Secondly, this particular get together, as far as I am concerned, is a chance for me to away from the family for one night. I am a very devoted, highly involved husband and father. But every now and then, a man has to have some time to himself. Saturday is my night.

    After you have had four beers, or I have had four beers? I get better after two or three, and start going downhill after about six. (Although I have a long way to drive and won't be drinking....much)

    Jeff, as a musician, drinker, smoker and frequent bar patron, I find your post very offensive!!! [​IMG]

    PS: The wink means that my reply was a feeble attempt at humor. Please forgive me! [​IMG]

    I'll be there. Someone save me a seat near the bar.

    PS. Does this place have pool tables? How about a CC.NET pool tournament?

    I thought that too, Clutch.

    I may be able to stop by but I'm not sure. I'll see what happens.

    Yeah, I thought about that after I posted. But maybe we can have the next best thing....a visit from some important Rocket official, like the one that sat in the owner's seats Thursday night. Unless he is too busy sitting on the bench the next game!! [​IMG]

    I'll see everyone tonight at 9!

    Cato is on IR and probably doesn't have to attend the pregame shoot around. I don't know how he would handle all of the autograph requests.
    ---------------------------------------------

    heypartner,

    Another Forum?

    Sure:

    "The Clutch City Fellowship Forum".

    Does sound sort of religious, not that there is anything wrong with that. To much personal contact with the players might make it it more difficult for members to complain about Cato's defense after meeting him in person.

    Just my two cents.... but aren't the Rocket players supposed to be playing in the games we're meeting to watch?

    I take that back... maybe Langhi can come [​IMG]
