BRBAPALOOZA: August 14, 2010

As proposed here, we're going to have ourselves another BRB Gathering. You probably already have 7 p.m. CST August 14, 2010 blocked on your calendar for the first preseason contest of your Houston Texans' 2010 season, as they'll be in action against the Cardinals of Arizona. How about instead of cursing at your television in the privacy of your own home, you come out to a bar to curse at multiple televisions with like-minded fans here in Houston?

Star-divide

We're not yet ready to announce the venue for this shindig, as it hasn't even opened yet. As soon it does open as scheduled (on August 3rd), we'll bombard you with reminders. This mysterious sports bar is owned and operated by diehard Texans fans and readers of BRB. Even better, we're told they're going to give us some awfully nice specials on drinks and food. No, that doesn't mean free, but it does mean much cheaper than it'd cost you to hang out at other sports bars. Those specials will be announced as soon as the bar is up and running.

Additionally, our friends (and fellow Texans fans) at UpsetSpecial.com will be at BRBAPALOOZA. Seeing as how these guys are fans like us, you might be interested to know that until kickoff on September 12th, their site is offering a 100% rebate on purchases from any store in their network if the Houston Texans win the Super Bowl. Given that it's virtually assured that THIS WILL BE THE YEAR EVERYTHING FINALLY COMES TOGETHER IN UNFETTERED BEAUTIFUL PERFECTION, that could be a heckuva deal. Regardless, they'll be around on August 14th to discuss the deal and/or simply to yell at the heavens with us.

Hope to see as many of you as possible there. If you can make it, RSVP in the Comments.

something just sound right about that....

I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?

/and by “if I am in town” I mean “if I am not cursing at virtual Texans players while playing Madden 11”

Me

Well, I think my involvement hinges around whenever my sister decides to poop out her baby (her words). So, I’m kind of up in the air over the next couple of weeks, but I do hope to make it. And I’m staying with Dave if I do. Dave or Rivers. I heard they both host “all-inclusive.”

at least I have some hope of getting to an actual game this year. Hurray for magical vacation coincidences!

What nollie said

some of us do live out of houston you know. And the only way we can communicate with other texans fans is through this blog. No Zima for you fearless leader.

Every time I see "BRBAPALOOZA"

I read “BOOBapalooza”. Methinks we’d have a larger crowd if we go this route.

Does that mean I can go?

In that case, I'll definitely be there.

And this time I mean it. Besides, the wife prefers I watch away games at a bar. Might as well be with you fine people fuckwads mama’s boys fine people.

Come to think of it since I go to the home games and the wife wants me outta the house for away games, I wonder what message she’s trying to send? Nah, must be my imagination. No way my game day behavior could be a negative influence on the kids. Right?

I should never watch football around children

Or small animals.

It might have nothing to do with the Kids

…and more to do with Miguel the pool boy

He does a great job, though.

Problem is, we don’t have a pool. Should I be worried?

Is it me or was anyone else’s first reaction to this “they mis-spelled RAPEAPALOOZA”…

Here's the question everyone needs answered

Is Anna Meagan going to be there?

by papabear on Jul 29, 2010 11:02 AM CDT reply actions  

The real question here is:

How many Shiners would it take for papabear to finally muster enough courage to profess his undying love to Anna Megan in person?

by Jordann on Jul 29, 2010 11:11 AM CDT via mobile up reply actions  

Takes him 14 just to get a buzz

In fact, I should probably pass the bigfatdrunk nym to him and I can assume the handle: oldbitterbalddrunk

You think she would have figured it out by now

I mean why else would I be sitting outside her bedroom every night?

That should pretty much gaurantee she's not there if her internet sarcasm detector isn't working

If she doesn't show up

then she’ll miss out on what you can offer her. Rape. I mean, male companionship.

by Jordann on Jul 29, 2010 4:30 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions  

well...

Apparently Ms. Raley is not allowed to drink out in public, so my guess is “no”. Sorry to disappoint ya, dude.

Really?

I’ve seen her drinking at the Bus after a Stros game.
