PrintThere will not be enough VEB participants for group seating (we're like Reds fans all of a sudden), so you are all on your own for seating. If you want to get together with other VEBers on seats, please use the comments for arrangements.
Also, please leave a note below if you are for sure attending and if you would rather meet up before or after the game (remembering that it is a night game). Friday, I'll make a poll with options of places to go.

I'm planning on attending.
I don’t care if we meet up before or after the game.

i think after the game really suits everyone better.

It's a free country.
Some of us can answer the call of the Budweiser radio ads.

Before the game works best for me.

Night game
I’m old. I’d rather meet up before hand.

This is (depressingly) my thinking as well.

Oh well that means I'm not going.
Parents scheduled my graduation party for that date. Probably sum-zero chance they allow me to skip it.
Seeing the date I guess, it just kind of it me that they occurred at the same time.

I still need to make arrangements and get tickets for the two of us, but I’d almost guarantee that we’re going to be there. We’d prefer before the game, but I wouldn’t say no to either (and I know that the after-game option will happen whether it is planned or not). I would recommend the before-game get-together and maybe an at-the-ballpark meeting place/time (before or after) to co-ordinate plans.

I sort of hate to ask
but since this is an organizing thread, can I get a ride with you guys? I have a place to stay at adieuordie’s place, but I’m not sure if you are going to stay over night. it might be just as easy for me to take the megabus though, hmmm. I think I might be able to go actually.

So, anyway, if we could get back to saying if you're going or not

I'm almost certainly coming.
wife and kid…. hmm… Are you bringing Mme. Fritz?
Have you been to the mustard museum?
What would the pre-game festivities be?
We could meet at Tower Grove park and drink and picnic and throw around baseballs/wiffle balls/baby bears.
Have you been to the mustard museum?
i would pay lots of money so see some of these people do anything physical whatsoever.

Aren't you the 6'4" guy that can't play basketball?
"Miller came in from the bullpen with a gan of casoline." - Mike Shannon
yeah...
but i’m just not athletic. there’s a difference.

being not athletic vs being old/out of shape
i’m not saying i’m in shape (i’m not), but i’m 21 and not grossly out of shape. which is more than a lot of people can say (maybe not on here, but in most of america).
i was trying to be funny. now i kind of look like a jackass.

I'm fat but can still play sports. Just not longer than 15 minutes.

Hahaha
NO. That is Pride week in Tower Grove. Will be absolutely packed. I am actually going to a separate internet meet up that day, Reddit. The closest park we got was Castlewood.

I like broadway for after the game
j bucks before?
check out VEB on facebook...just search groups for Viva El Birdos
I think we should make a VEB all-star ballot,
with each of the selections exactly the same, to amplify the voting power of VEB. I’m thinking we should try to select the most overrated and likely to win AL players as possible (ie. Jeter and Francouer) while selecting the best possible NL players with a slight skew toward Cardinals.

what the hell are you talking about?
"Miller came in from the bullpen with a gan of casoline." - Mike Shannon
Francouer is likely to make the All-Star game?
"And a boring game for boring people. Did you ever watch golf on television? It's like watching flies FUCK. Think of the intellect it must take to draw pleasure from this activity: hitting a ball with a crooked stick and then WALKING AFTER IT" -George Carlin
So far, it is
myself (1), bgh, az, solanus, rejuvenile, a fink (2?), goodymobb, and I am assuming CFiC, Flim, Dttl89 and fang? Is this it/correct?
"Miller came in from the bullpen with a gan of casoline." - Mike Shannon
Correct for me
should have either one or two with me

CRUD. I'm out.
A friend just got married rather quietly and is throwing a post-factum reception on the 25th.
Have you been to the mustard museum?
Anyone interested in Section 128 Row 6 and 7 seats
by FlimtotheFlam on Jun 6, 2011 7:07 PM EDT up reply actions
Plans
1) Are we meeting before the game?
2) What time are we meeting before the game?
3) Where are we meeting before the game?

Cant miss meeting up with my fellow Cards nerds. With the smallish group the Oyster Bar makes good sense to me.

That's what I'm thinking.
Does Oyster Bar from 3-6 work for everyone?

I thought we decided it was a free for all.
I’m probably going to pass on the game and just go to the oyster bar.

Are we having VEB Day on the same day as Pooches at the Park day so Yadi Fritz can attend?

No, Yadi is going to sit this one out.
I wish we could just bring him to random games throughout the year.

why have i not seen pictures of yadi fritz yet?

I'll be at the game Friday, too.
If anyone else will be, too, and wants to meet up for a beer during or after, let me know.

I can find some bleacher seats so we can sit together and split the cost.
