southsider2k5 Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 After talking with a couple of individuals, is there any interest for some kind of a Soxtalk gathering? There have a pretty cool bar up at the Hyatt, but I am not sure where else we could all meet, including the youngins. Any interest, ideas, or other thoughts?

sox4lifeinPA Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 I'll be gathering with miss sox4life in PA...but I'll send a picture of me attached to a stuffed animal...which you can burn in effigy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 The plan is usually just to meet at the bar, at the end furthest from the door, wher it's easiest to put several tables together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 Soxfest was off my radar but my dad just had surgery and I was thinking about heading back to Chi to see him. When is Soxfest this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the Bar or outside of it? And what night is the usual gathering happens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 In the Bar or outside of it? And what night is the usual gathering happens? Friday night. The atrium bar is the only one we go to.. But don't worry, I'm sure we'll meet up before fest closing time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sox4lifeinPA Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 I just dont wanna end up like PA, anything but like him yeah, being the most successful bank teller in the history of the world would be devastating to your attempts to monopolize the soxtalk market for being the biggest cubbie. oh, and being extremely talented musically, of gifted inteligence, and clearly among the funniest on this board...that doesn't mean anything. tongue in cheek> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 Friday night. The atrium bar is the only one we go to.. But don't worry, I'm sure we'll meet up before fest closing time. Sure, stick with the losers (Hangar 18 and company) the whole time and then join us during your convenience. Im sure there will be many photos posted up on WSI to tell the story.

southsider2k5 Posted December 18, 2003 Author Share Posted December 18, 2003 Actually I wonder if it would be possible for us and WSI to combine forces for good? I wonder if we worked together as the two biggest message boards dedicated solely to the Sox if the team would do something special for us? Think about it, we are helping them by getting more people to the fest, and they could help us somehow, like an autograph session or something... Anyone know anyone with the Sox who would be willing to ask about such a thing? Or does this sound completely crazy??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im sure there will be many photos posted up on WSI to tell the story. I'm sorry if you think they are losers, Flash. And I don't intend on hanging with them, and then joining anyone else "at my convenience". Henry was at the AOL party this past summer and so were many of the posters here.. no one seemed to have an issue. I will be where I'm at. If people want to gather together, so be it. You're entitled to your opinions, but those are my friends you are talking about, and I would appreciate it if you didn't talk to me about them like that. Especially since you don't know s*** about them other than from an internet message board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the bar is open to anyone who wants to come. Last year there were some from Yahoo and MSN boards, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hangar is a great guy...only met him twice when he was out in LA, but he set up a little Sox fan gathering befor the Dodger Sox games, but he's a real nice guy. and a big time Sox fan.

And, don't worry I won't be posting there as SoxTalk is my home....and you can't have two homes I am the Mod of the Sox AOL board. Every year we have an outing at the park - it's called Nomadsfest named after one of the posters there. Last year was the 3rd one and we had over 30 people from the AOL boards, a few from WSI, and several from here. Tons of food and beer and everyone just hangs out. I posted a group picture from there on here back in the summer. Great time. You should try to make it this year. August 7th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 All I do is sneak in to Sox fest. Those f***ers on security never check me or my dad or bros. Assholes, they deserve what they get, and thats how I got Mass Quanities of autographs...if you can find my post from last year on wsc425...i gave specific directions on how to sneak in the back door from the valet parking lot entrance on whacker i think thats the street...

BrandoFan Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 I am the Mod of the Sox AOL board Is it like a WhiteSox message board like Soxtalk or another type board? And Nomads, sound very f***ing familiar.....Did he post on ESPN like in 2000? Strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
