That moment alone would have made the trip worth it for me.:tro:

BT...wtf was up with the backpack? Little Dora the Explorer action going on there.:wf

He needed a place for his Jill Byrne blow up doll.

Well, at least he finally got a haircut.

damn, there are some narcs on this board
the backpack came in handy...... ask tom, plus i didn't want to be "that tool" and wear my free tvg cap all day like some people..... matt....*cough cough

-bt-

I thought for sure you and DB were about to yell "outside pieces!!" as Jill Byrne was walking by.:D

Tom was on the "outside pieces" bandwagon.

Tool chasing Jill Byrne with a fairly large backpack > Tool wearing the free TVG hat...

did you see what blue picnic table button down shirt
me>matt

-bt-

The shirt was actually quite nice, although I perfer the Mr. Thomas one (it's a classic).

I was very impressed the with the way you accessorized it with your forest green backpack.

Not only was it chic, it made you look like a player as opposed to a stalking psychopath. :rolleyes:

and that's why you get NO posters, dick.... where the phuck is tom when you need him?


-bt-

What posters? The I'll Have Another ones that you were glomming off the floor?

I was just watching but I will now come to your defense. You only wore the back pack when entering, stalking Jill Byrne, and leaving. It did come in handy. Kev, it wasn't a Dora back pack but we could have used the map on the way home. ;)

Sorry Dave, you didn't think you were getting off scot-free for our tour of Long Island.

It was my way of avoiding the trafic. Yeah thats thw ticket. :rolleyes:

I knew you guys were in trouble when I spoke to Brian and he mentioned Hempstead. What time did you end up making it back?

We only went about 10 minutes the wrong way. After we turned around there was very littlr traffic so it worked out OK.

phuck'n back seat drivers over here.....

let's also bring to light, that DB thought i was stealing his car in the middle of the night when i simply entered the room to get a cigar...... go!

-bt-

Not stealing. Borrowing. ;)

Personally, I would have thought that you were borrowing the car to get more beer so you can handicap Sunday's card efficiently.

ohhh i was drinking more, trust me... but it sure as hell wasn't to cap anything. By sunday morning i wanted to take a header off each and every bridge we crossed, i took a bath last weekend

-bt-

You and me both.

Actually felt bad about making that comment.

And Matt is probably not aware that you were in the middle of two drunk wedding parties that night at our hotel.

:rolleyes:

And why is this just coming out now?

2 jersey weddings.... one small hotel bar....... your cousins didn't tell you they were having the reception at the same hotel matt?


-bt-

Wow you took a picture of the girl in pink dress, very impressive work.

Please tell me he wasn't a douche.

Just an independent observer of this thread talking here, but I have seen pics with the Dora backpack and I do not see a TVG hat in this one.....

;)

Seemed to be a pretty good guy. He was with an extremely attractive French speaking brunette. :tro:

As an aside, minutes after taking the picture we see a random guy walking thru the crowd wearing a Lecavalier jersey.

I believe the photo was taken before the hats were handed out.

What this photographer failed to do was get photos of the TVG "jocks" handing out the hats.

:tro:

That was more than likely his wife.

Good to hear he seemed okay as he is one of the real good guys around these parts, but he is very private and I haven't heard of many that have had chance encounters like bt. He has the Pediatric Cancer Center at the All Childrens Hospital named after him as he and his foundation donated something like $3 million. He keeps his nose clean and keeps his family out of the lime light. You can't ask much more from an athlete these days.

Dave and I were off to buy pops and he walked by and I sort of did a double take, and was like “dave, I know this guy… I know him from somewhere”. Line was long enough where I told dave I was gonna go birddog him, so.. I speed walked (awesome visual) and got in front of him just enough to see who it was. He was walking back as we were sitting in line and I said “vinny, can I get a pic?”. Really nice guy, he said sure no problem, as nobody else within 40 yards knew who he was, so it wasn’t a big deal anyways. Asked where I was from, and told him I was a die hard caps fan which he kind of chuckled at. And then, the man taking the picture yells out “hey I’m a lightning fan” mere seconds after I announce I’m a caps fan. Keep in mind, the guy taking the pic in real life Is a diehard bruins fan. Overall he was a really nice guy, I thought he might have been a prick, but far from, and he was speaking French to some dime piece as well……
2nd part of your comments Bigs. If you had a $2 show ticket on a 1-9 shot, would you announce it to all within ear shot? I would hope not, b/c it’s embarrassing, like the TVG hat Matt was rocking all day.
In his defense and mine, it’s the only thing I “won” all weekend, and by “won” I mean I’m getting 5 emails a day from them for signing up, fml.

Rookie, I told you not to use your real info.

How could you forget about the syndicate pick 4 ticket? :rolleyes: :zz:

only if i knew then, what i know now.... with regards to EVERYTHING about that weekend

-bt-

Nice avi, the question of the weekend was "have you ever seen anyone use the mouthwash in a place like this?"
