And everyone remember - I didn't break it!

Figure what, 2 to 3 hours for this?

Make that 2 XLs - a buddy wants one.

scattered/isolated T-storms (what's the difference?!?) back in for the weekend but the temp is going up. 79 for Sat 85 for Sun.

Please tell me there's no pickle juice involved!

Me & Rubeo Jr will be doing a father/son bondage thing...

My wife's an 'around-and-around'er, I'm an 'end-to-end'er...

Working with and talking to, obviously.

I saw you chatting up those 3 Jills...

I dunno - 30 to 40 minute wait to register instead of 50 I suppose. But then a longer wait for the raffles because it took so long to get everyone through the line. They said the event was sold out but were totally unprepared for how many people that meant. At $11/kid and $6/adult, I'd think there'd be more to it and it would be better managed. Have you ever been in a line for 50 minutes in 80 degree weather with no shade and hundreds of hot, hungry kids and no idea what's taking so long or when it would end? Watching people who didn't pay anything walking past while the supposed VIPs stand around baking?

What was published: registration at 9, breakfast is from 9-10 in VIP tent, raffles for prizes at 10, practice 10:20 - 12:20. Line up for autograph session at 11:45. What actually happened: arrive at 9:10, stand in line for 50 minutes to "register" (get wrist bands and backpacks). Get 1 raffle ticket per kid. Backpacks contain a hat, pen, pencil, keychain, tattoo. They're nice enough to wait until everyone is in before doing the raffle, which is for 5 different autographed mini-helmets. Breakfast is bagels, some pastries, and fruit salad. Thankfully they had coffee. We're not in "the" VIP tent, but just some tents on the side by the games area. No special vantage point to watch practice, or shade. 11:45, line for autograph area is already a mile long, and completely unmanaged. We go hang in merchandise tent which is at least air conditioned. 12:20 we go back. Kids go onto field but are way back. Parents not allowed onto field unless kids are under 6 yrs old. 12:45 some players eventually work their way over to where this throng of kids await them. Looks like chaos from the bleachers. At least the kids got a few cool autographs, but my bagel & coffee were $6 and the kids tickets were $11 each. A very poorly run event which may have had the opposite effect by turning kids off the team/camp. I did see Lancaster Steve, Mark VI, and Mike3223890210

Thanks for the info - is there anything specific before or after any of the events at the Hall? Lobys Bar & Grille (330) 479-9860 4736 Hills And Dales Rd NW Canton, OH 44708 http://www.mapquest.com/maps?city=Canton&a...ls+And+Dales+Nw

The PC version I have of the game has a bunch of custom rules, of which Free Parking is one. We developed another rule when I was a kid, where a snakeeyes gave you 1 of each bill from the bank.

Plus there are chance and community chest cards which send people to them and make them pay double rent, plus the chance 'take a ride on the reading' card.

First change - now says 'isolated thunder showers' but keeps the 77 degrees. Sunday says showers.

Kinda glad we left just before 9...

I was at that one and the Raiders playoff too. Actually didn't feel cold til the 3rd quarter.
