They play poker and watch the LV knights games there. I know a bartender there and he reserved it for us. 3 TVs in there so we can watch multiple stations and the nba playoffs. i had open heart surgery 5 weeks ago and this is my first night out with the boys. Really been looking forward to it. Jesus man, way to bring reality into things and make me reflect on life.... But seriously, glad things are well

Thanks my friend. I made an appointment with a cardiologist out of the blue strictly because of heart disease in my family. No pain or anything. After a couple tests, they saw that my left artery was 95% clogged and 2 others 80%! Once they opened my up, they saw 2 more that needed a graft, so I had a Quintuple bypass. Crazy. 5 weeks later, I feel really good. On the treadmill everyday getting stronger. Missing work really sucks, but I’ll take being alive ?? 2 minutes ago, Virgil said: Jesus man, way to bring reality into things and make me reflect on life....

Jay_Fixit Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 I’ll watch while laying on my couch. With my eyes.
Augie Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 My buddy is going up with pals. I asked “what’s the deal with tickets?” He said “Nuthin’, it’s in the street!” Huh? I thought about it but I’m not going up to stand on Broadway with a bunch of people more drunk than me! I want to be, you know....INSIDE. My wife has to be there next weekend for a funeral. Couldn’t find a decent hotel under $500/night. She will stay with friends. I heard they expect 100k people. Bills backers have an event at their Atlanta bars, but I may just watch at home. I have a sister visiting, so I’d rather not ditch her, leaving her at my home by herself. I’m not a great person, but I’m not a HORRIBLE person! (Though if she was curious to see the Bills bar....) 1 1

NickelCity Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 My plans are not conducive to following along this year, which is a bummer but c'est la vie. I'll be visiting family in the pancake/swamp of Florida on Thursday, then driving all day Friday up north for a wedding. Hope I can find it on the radio.

NewEraBills Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 I wanted to get tickets but I moved away from town. I used to live on Charlotte Ave, but now I live out in the country. But for anyone coming to Nashville, just be mindful that the Preds are in the playoffs so you'll have that going on and there's like 12 other events going on downtown in addition to the draft. Good luck getting in and out of downtown. That's one of the biggest reasons I just said screw it. I'd have to drive another 45 mins home after trying to get from downtown for around an 1hr and 30 mins to 2 hours. No thanks.
Buffalophil1948 Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 I'll be here for updates. You guys can be fricken hilarious at times 3

For the draft alone they had over 235, 000. Then you have close to 25/30k for the Preds game, which is almost right across the street. Edited April 23, 2019 by NewEraBills

My sister, tall and thin who never smoked and walked the dog miles every day, had a quadruple bypass in her mid 50’s. Never saw THAT coming. Very small family history other than parents, who just had high BP. My only aunt/uncle did die of a heart attack probably in his 60’s. I’ve taken up my sister’s routine of trying to get 10,000 steps/day. That’s a lot more than I thought it would be! Anyways, I’m sure you realize some teams have taken you off the board. 1
GimmeSomeProcess Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Like always, I’ll be watching it my brother. Hang outside with some drinks to get ready for the show. Can’t wait!
1ManRaid Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 I wouldn't mind finding a party for it, if anyone knows of a bar or anything hosting near the Canadian borders.

I guess the conference center. I love Nashville! My buddy going up who said “IT’S IN THE ROAD!” made me laugh!
KollegeStudnet Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 (edited) I usually take the day off but may have to work. Either way. I may be drunk in some random bar in Utah. ?♀️ Edited April 23, 2019 by KollegeStudnet 1
HereComesTheReignAgain Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 (edited) I will be watching at the North Jersey Bills Backer bar, Duffy’s. We should have a decent amount of Bills fans there. If anyone is in the north NJ area, stop out to Duffy’s in Paterson! Edited April 23, 2019 by chknwing334
AustinDan Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Will be at a draft watch party with the Austin Bills Backers at our bar, which is my usual draft routine. Will likely be listening some to either wgr550 or hashtag sports for Bills coverage. Looking forward to the draft. Last year Baker Mayfield was with his family watching the draft at a place about a block from our Bills bar. If Buffalo had wound up drafting him a group of us were going to go welcome him to the Bills. Also, when they were about to announce Buffalo's draft pick one of the Bills fans yelled out "Anybody except Josh Allen!" Lol.
