Tonight, 8/9: GRUDGE MATCH: Air Hockey/Ping Pong

carnivore

Come one, come all!

Once again, the "official" DH "air hockey, ping pong, pool, whatever" night is coming this Tuesday (8/9) at 8 PM at Brownstone Billiards.
:evil: :twisted: :evil: :twisted: :evil: :twisted: :evil:
Bring brown bag beverages!
:twisted: :evil: :twisted: :evil: :twisted: :evil: :twisted:
See Isa go for blood!
8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

IT'S ON!

Help us decide whether to use Muddy Waters as a "staging area" to meet before going to Brownstone Billiards :!: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

did somebody say ping pong? oooh!

Is Brownstone Billards the place in Park Slope on the corner of 7th and Flatbush?

jose

Yes, that's Brownstone. I'm 99% coming, but I'll be playing pool.

emily

I suck at all the aforementioned sports, so I'll just be coming to laugh at y'all.

daniel

Maybe all those years of watching ice hockey will finally pay off!

carnivore

So what do you guys think about the MW staging area idea?

A visit form the dh.com board is like a kiss from the godfather.

Be warned, the stereotype about brown people and racket sports is true. I will be there with my custom Butterfly blade to lay the proverbial smack down.

Oh god, what did I just talk myself into :shock:

it's true, it's true... but i'm brown, too... so, the question is- 1) brown-on-brown smackdown OR team up (i haven't played good doubles in ages!) and dominate our fairer-skinned foes...?!

In preparation for the impending race war, I say we team up (read: I fear a brutal thrashing).

Go Team Brown!

it has been a while- i'll have to knock of a little rust, but i like our chances...

hmmm... when i used to play with my buddies, i would regularly put my old trophy (2nd place from a parks and rec tourney almost 15 years ago) up for grabs... i wonder if i should put that on the line... my wife certainly wouldn't mind if i lost it!

dailyheights

Fear me.

carnivore

Once 11238 posts what time MW closes, we can pick an assembly time.

If it's closed by near 8p, should we do Chocolate Monkey instead?

11238

Ms. Thang said 8pm.

carnivore

Should we all meet up there at 7:40 pm on 8/9?

stacey

Im so bummed I will miss this but have fun everyone!!!

herrick

Ok I dropped off theboard for a week or so. I'm back and ready to Thrash Carnivore!

See yo there. Bring your skates.

isa

I'm not going to talk any shit because of the tragic events that befell me on RPS night. Hey, whoever gets there first try to get a butterfly ping pong table.

pensodyssey

Yo yo yo whats the dilly-o on the hookup?

herrick

I'll be there about 9pm to dish out a cold serving of air hockey vengence.

It is with great regret that I must announce that I will not be able to make it tonight. Cold symptoms have set in and I really must get rest in order to be healthy for travel this weekend.

My heart aches to have to replace brown-bagged beer and table tennis for echinacea.

Team Brown - hit a looped drive winner and pour a forty for the temporarily departed.

Team Whitey - wait, is there a Team Whitey??

dailyheights

Show up or you're banned. I mean it. :twisted:

Don't bother with the echinacea:

Too bad about team brown. But I guess that frees things up for the original showdown: Isa vs. nybt! :twisted:

NO! All I said is that I'd charge the net, I didn't say I would win. Just break the ping pong table, which I suppose is a sort of winning.
