They have a picture of Sierra Nevada PA on their drink menu, but it's not on the list. This is very disconcerting.
Anything else doing that weekend beforehand? Maybe I'll hit the a brewery tour first, or something political.

I'll see if I can get someone to drop me in one their way through. Very, very iffy. Maybe I'll take up your offer KM. I hope the pack doesn't smell any kibbles n bits on me or I'm done for. 😛

edit:$20 NYC round trip 🙂

That's cheaper than me driving and parking at Philadelphia. And I'm close enough that peeing will hit that city.
 
I already talked to my mother and moved her birthday dinner to Saturday. If this is definate, I'll try and talk to her and see if we can move it back to Friday. So- are we definately moving this to Saturday?

Either way- I look forward to hopefully getting to see you there!
 
Man, you guys are killing me! We agreed on Friday, so I guess we'll stick with Friday. No turning back now! I hope everyone can still make it, and maybe we'll plan another one in a couple of months that hopefully more people can go to. 🙂 I look forward to meeting all of you, just don't get bored of each other before I get there. 😀 My wife will not be going, so hopefully my handy GPS and navigate me from Newark to Philadelphia pretty quickly. 🙂
 
Regardless of the date, I want to meet this mug character. Too many threads in software to imagine you anything but a collage of pixels.

Oh, you're Rachel. I assumed chickadee was the one being referred to. 😕

OH CRAP I just found out I have to fly to Dallas for work and I don't get back until 7:13 PM on Friday - that's IF my flight to Atlanta or from Atlanta to Newark doesn't get delayed (I only have a 30 minute layover in Atlanta, so if my flight out of Dallas is delayed I'm screwed).

Optimistically the earliest I could get to D&B is ~10:00 pm. Barring any unforseen circumstances I'll still make it to the meet, just really late... only problem is, am I the only person over 25 who is going? If so, we might need to pick a different place so the under-21 people can get inside.

Sorry guys. 🙁

I'm 29... I can make it Saturday if that's more convenient.

 
Hey guys! I hate to pressure you, but I do need a definative answer as to which day it's going to be. Friday's still best for me, if it's going to be Saturday I'll need to know as soon as possible and will try my best to come. Anyway, let's decide quickly 🙂 I can't wait to see all of you!

Hey everyone, we're gonna stick with Friday, just in case anyone wasn't sure about the plans.

Anyone want to do something afterhours? Otherwise, I might have to wander around before the bus leaves. I would get into Philly early to see some sites & buy a couple choice items. There's a departure at 1:40am & 5:30am. I have no problems staying late, as long as the city stays open that late.

I can't buy my tickets till I know how many karaoke songs Perknose, I mean, Goku is going to perform that night. 😛

edit: Where is everyone from the other thread?
I'm not going to sneak a bottle into D&B for four people!

There should be a probable list, so as to attract more apple pickers such as myself.
 
Yeah Mugs get a list of who's going, and PM everyone and get emails/phone numbers so we can contact each other. Or whoever will be there early, just PM that person's phone number out so we all know where in D&B to meet (bar? gameroom?). It can get crowded in there.
 
I thought my last post was a definite answer. 🙂 Yeah, we're sticking with Friday. I'll PM some people today and see if anyone else is interested.
 
Damn, if you guys would have just set this date for Saturday Id be there in Phili. Just booked our hotel for Saturday night in Phili for my gf's health convention thing. Damn it.

Get there early & I'll chill with you till 4:30am on Saturday. 🙂

So do I buy the 1:30 departure, or the 5:30? It's up to you guys.

Like I said, if I go, I'm spending all of Friday there. Might explore a bit.

I can say for sure that I don't plan on being in Philadelphia past 1:30. 😉

There's a good nightlife in Philadelphia Center City, but it's mostly around 17th Walnut and Chestnut.

It should work; check out this link: http://www.clubplanet.com/clubsearch/Default.asp?site=15

I really wouldn't know where to start. You young guys know all the spots. Just let me know the itinerary & I'll do my best to be there. Just got to figure out where to eat breakfast, & how far I have to go to get to the tour sites.

Muggy, what's the status on Perky, Platinum, Jihad, & Goose? I haven' heard from many people since the original thread. As much fun as macro beers & teenage girls are, I can't hold up a conversation outside a small band of odd topics.

Hey look, fetish bars. 😛

Woah... ATOT Philly meetup?

Hmmm... I might go.

How far from the train station is this? Walkable?

No idea. I start out at the bus depot, near some place called "The Galllery", near Market street. I walk up to Franklin Square, then towards the water.

I'm going to get so lost. :thumbsup:🙂

Who's up for brunch?

Rachael would be best suited to tell you directions, but from "The Gallery" which is a stop that SEPTA makes, I think you're closer than you'd believe. I'll PM you my phone # and you should be able to call me around 5-6pm, because I know Rachael wants to see Happy Feet before we get to the meet so I may not answer it so early in the afternoon.

necine PM Rachael and she'll be able to tell you.
 
no one listens to me

it is a block from the spring garden station of the market-frankford subway line

Sounds like a good plan. Where at?

edit: Any easy public transportation to Adventure Aquarium? If not, I'll just stick to the area around Market Street.
 
How late is everyone staying? Erin and I are taking the train and there is a 12:12 AM train and a 5:00 AM train 🙂 we're debating whether to take the 12:12 AM train (which means we'd have to leave Dave and Busters around 11) or to just party all night and take the 5:00 AM 🙂
