Well, I'm up for calling it Sleater-Kinney Packer Rats, but I don't think we're gonna get Oregon Pack Fan to re-up by disenfranchising him from the get-go.Quote:

Great beers and Sarah is awesome.
I have to schedule a trip out there to see a client. Lemme see what I can work out.
Looking forward to it......you out west full time now Mike?
Haha. There's a few things "west coast" that bother me - but mostly due to my good Wisconsin upbringing, dontcha know der hey? For example - no one here ever says "grillin' out" everyone says "barbecue". "Fountain" not bubbler. "Pop" not soda.Quote:

Sports bars - remember that I've mostly only frequented these establishments at 10am west coast time - for the noon WI kickoff.
If you get north of Seattle proper - Razzals is the place for grub beer & watching:

A short cab ride from downtown to west Seattle will get you here:

Expensive and "hoity" but excellent service, and a guaranteed view of your game:

The only reason there wouldn't be tickets available for the pack/chickenhawks pre-season game is if there are too many packer fans. I'm 95% sure this will not happen and tix will be available day of game.
And - because I'm lame - I forgot about the place I most frequented day and night for a couple years:
"The Time Out" on the east side:

Breakfast buffet @ 10am for the early games - comes with a build your own Bloody Mary.
Single game tickets for Chicken home games go on sale July 26 according to an email I received.......Ticketmaster is of course the outlet.
Tickets on sale now......who's still going?
I'm counting on my GF to get some tickets for the two of us.....I'll book a flight within the next couple days. 8-)
Who's up for a meet-up??
My GF and I are hooked up to go to the Northwest Packer Backers Tailgate Party on Saturday. Anybody else feel like attending??
http://www.northwestpackerbackers.com/
I am going to get there right before kickoff...or there abouts so I don't think I'll make that.Quote:

I didn't realize you could bbq a double short mocha breve extra whip soy chai trembling Hasselhoff Germany singing MOFO with double chocolate and some cinnamon laying on the bedroom floor throwing up Big Macs and uttering notions about how the world is going to end... how AWESOME is that? Gee... America DOES have talent.. wait... the Hoff got fired.. my bad...Quote:

"Could you please sit down and stop yelling so much... and the cursing... please don't swear, it's quite offensive"... I mean... seriously?... HELLO?,,, it's a football game...THERE'S A SECTION FOR JAGOFFS LIKE YOU... IN THE FAMILY AREA... while you're at it, why don't you head on down to Oakland and see how far you get with your "request"... every other game I've gone to I always try to sit in the Visitor Section... a lot more "colorful"...Quote:

NW Packer Backers rock btw.... GO PACK GO!
Mike will be out here February 10th through 15th... we'd love to get together and tip a draught or two... let us know if anyone will be in the vicinity or if you are interested in meeting up....
