One thing I wish we did have (which the article mentioned) were tournaments. I would have liked the gaming to be a bit more organized, but that is of course all up to the crowd. Most people don't care about tourny's & just wanna play when they feel like it.

greg, you guys have access to cutting torches and welding rigs out there, you outa make a coupl 1/2 50 gallon drum BBQ's

Cheap and effective- My father is a fire marshall and they used about 10 of them on there large cookouts, everyone gets there grub in a goog ammount of time

On that note I think if ed is gonna chef again next year we outa get him a super soaker..People we saying some semi rude stuff at the cooks while waiting in line ;)

yea, there is a good chance. some heffers really were oinking them down. I dont mind people eating, but when you eat enough for 3 hungry people that ant right. Atleast pop hasent been a real prob yet. I still have a whole fridge of cool pops sitting here. granted I better, after spending over $100 on pop LOL

You guys wana get an idea of what I outlay before this party even starts...apx prices

$350 (tables chairs, and keg cooler)
$350 (Food: Dogs, burgers, and brats and there buns)
$110 (drinks or there abouts)
$110 (assorted snacks, chips, food bars, and other things)
$200 (some prizes, cause this year I got in ALOT of tshirts and stuff not prizes)

and $ I have spent in the past has been on:

Lots of quality extention cords
Lots of power strips
lots of totes to store things
cat5
among tons and tons of other stuff.

I think after this year, I have finally paid off the bills from previus years parties. :)

I dont want this party to be strict. I have been to those and they are beyond awful. But I guess some things will have to be implemented to keep the party Good for all.

People were being hogs :mad Marscheese and I stood in line to try and get some dogs, those ran out so we stood in line for burgers (we were the first in line on the second round), cooks ended up moving it inside (which was fine by me) but the bastards in line didn't STAY in line, they all just hurried inside with their two buns on their plate, some comming for seconds already...pissed me off. Finally said fuck it and went back to my seat. One guy sitting next to us had two but was nice an offered us one (cause I think he overheard our frustration :o ) I turned him down, I was just happy he noticed...Finally got one sometime that night.

The fried rice on saturday wasn't bad.

You should've just tapped me on the shoulder and told me you haven't had anything ;) I was trying to pick people out that I knew didn't eat yet but when I ran out of faces I let the others at it...

However, I was calling for hot doggers to come up to the front all night.
