had a fun time at the pdg last night, the room was too small, but like someone said it was too late to change it once we found out the basement was booked.

can't wait for clue 2!

I should have.

I was alone and very lonely.

Rory was out with her boyfriend, and the boys were with their dad.

    I plan to scout parks etc...

    That's why I'm afraid to go out. Scared you guys will keep me out too late.

    Yeah.... but think about it like this...

    If you go out and get the clue/hunt/whatever, when you're getting over a sickness, as well as you have to work early in the morning, you can start saying stuff like "the H in THX stands for HARDCORE"

    that would be pretty cool...

    I like the buttons too...

    those things rock...

    Hi everyone

    Thx for all the intro's and advice on viewing the posts....I have been @ the hunt since Como a few years back,,,,when the clue came out and people were swarming like killer bee's I became hooked. Anyways over the years I have lurked on a few of boards and would occasionally post but this board seems not to have all the BS so I think it will be my new home!

       Anyways I was reading through the messages about last nights Pre-Party and although I did not attend and dont know how many people were their....I have a suggestion for next years party location....I dont know if anyone's ever been to the back room @ Degidio's it can hold 225+ and its pretty spacious and right on West 7th only a few blocks from Mcgovern's. I know its a bit premature but if your @ all intrested in having it their next year let me know....I have a few contacts that could give us a deal

    Hay, toomuch. Welcome!

    Good idea that, about Degidio's. But I'm thinking we'd have to pay for the room. As much as we grumble about McGoverns, at least they never charge us for our private parties. Not even when we have the whole downstairs, our own bar, and our own (grumpy) waitresses.

    lol well the waitresses shouldn't have been grumpy last night... I'll bet they made a killing!

    Green,

    How many people would u estimate were their last night,,this is all way premature I know .....but if u can give me some details as to the turnaout and a guessestimae as to how much peeople were drinking..I can get back to u on wether or not a fee would be charged.
