My wife and I are in the Lafayette area until August 5th or so and would like to meet any Rockets fans in the area. Respond or email me to set up a time and place.
Good luck. At my 4 years at Purdue (a long time ago), the Rockets NEVER came up. You should adopt the Pacers or Bulls as your secondary team.
Where exactly is Lafayette Indiana? I am assuming it's not close to me because I haven't heard of it (and since it's not far from jsmee!) Hope you have a good time!
Say what?! You went to U.K. and haven't heard of Lafayette? Have you heard of Bloomington, IN? I suppose you haven't heard of Columbus, OH either. What about Ann Arbor, MI? I guess you didn't need to know any geography at Kentucky, huh?
Guess I shoulda said West Lafayette area. Evidently when you're within 150 miles of Columbus, Buckeyeism rubs off on you.
I could probably get around Illinois, Michigan or Ohio much easier than Indiana. I will be honest.. in Indiana I either stop in Indianapolis or just keep on going up to Chicago. The only other place in Indiana I know is Evansville. And I don't care about where a team is from when we beat them. I probably would have known Purdue was there if I had heard West Lafayette to be honest, but it didn't click when I saw Lafayette.
I have a hard time believing I didn't use West Lafayette myself. I will be visiting a cousin in the Cincy area. However it will be a day trip with other family members. We'll probably do the same thing next year. Maybe we could get together then.
How to contact you? You are here for a month? I would be in for a get together for Lafayette bbs members.
What the hell?! When I post a Rockets playoff viewing party for Rockets fans here in Chicago, I get no responses. You post about West Lafayette, Indiana of all places, and there's Clutchfans all over the place...
I've lived in Lafayette for the last few years, actually. But I'm a Bulls fan. Unless you guys sign Shaun Livingston for the full MLE.
email me thru the profile or call me at 281-743-4695. That's my cell. However in Benton and Warren counties, reception is horrible at best. I'm fine in Tippecanoe county, where I'll be visiting friends until 4pm today. When we want to make phone calls, we go into West Lafayette/Lafayette.
I don't care what team you follow(well maybe not the Jazz), anyone that has contributed as much as you have to this board, I'll buy a little liquid refreshment!
Just had a reply using this email address, pirc1 or anyone else interested in a Rockets meeting in the W.Laf/Laf area, contact me by using it. I'm booked for Sat. July 19 and Sun. Aug. 3.
