Official Opening Night Meet Up Fan Post
With the post I made getting pushed further and further down the page, I thought it might be convenient to create a Fan Post so that it'll stay visible through Opening Day. If a few of you want to throw this a rec so that it gets stickied at the top I'd appreciate it.
If you're in Baltimore, you'll be meeting up with us at Jimmy's. No excuses :) Here is the original post with all the details. A few people mentioned in that thread that they'll be there or hope to be there, which is awesome. If you even think you might come, let me know in the comments here. The WNST folks are asking me to verify the Camden Chatters so they're not just buying drinks for everyone under the sun.
Speaking of WNST, Phil mentioned in the comments of the last post that he'd had some reservations about the event due to their involvement. Thankfully he came around and if you have similar thoughts I hope you will too. I've said it before, I've had nothing but a positive experience with these guys, and I'm sure it's going to be a fun night of watching the O's. If that doesn't convince you, keep in mind there are also going to be some fabulous CC'ers there that will surely make it worth your while. If THAT doesn't convince you, Jimmy's has something on their menu called Crab Mac and Cheese. I think that settles it.
If you're NOT in Baltimore, several people mentioned the possibility of meeting up in NYC, DC, and Central Virginia. If you're in any of those locations (or anywhere else for that matter) and want to get something going, you can use this post to do so, since the other one will be off the front page soon.
FanPosts are user-created content and do not necessarily reflect the views of the editors of Camden Chat or SB Nation. They might, though.

I'll be there with my friend
I’ll be wearing a CC t-shirt (provided it doesn’t make me look too fat) but my friend won’t. Looking forward to crab mac-n-cheese!
I'm bummed I can't make it.
Someone drink a Coors Light for me, OK?

I can be as much of a beer snob as anyone, but i have no problem with coors light in that situation
wherever i end up on opening night, I plan on having enough beer that i cant afford to drink the good stuff.
If we were standing around at a tasting...
that’s one thing.
Drinking beer watching baseball? I’ll go with Coors Light in that situation.

I agree
sports situations call for cheap beer. Ball games last way too damn long to rely on your 15-20 buck six pack of the good stuff. I’m a miller lite guy myself, though.
Bedard says he doesn't care and thinks goals are pointless.
I'm good with Miller Lite, too.

Crazy Mofos
Drink local! Clipper City just rebranded to “Heavy Seas” (based on the success of their excellent Heavy Seas craft lineup, I would assume) so if I want a lower-abv “sessionable” beer, I usually go for one of their offerings. Also I’m close enough to PA that I also claim Harrisburg, PA as local and Troegs Prima Pils is another great option for a long, hot game. Natty Boh is no longer local, so fuck it.
Clipper City ain't local in Salisbury

Sure it is
Local in the sense that it’s a small distribution area to ensure freshness etc. Salisbury certainly fits the bill.
Never seen it down here. Ever.

And it definitely ain't local in Rochester

Ithaca is two hours away
I’ve only had the Flower Power IPA, but it was fantastic. They probably have some other good stuff that’s a little easier to drink during a game. Although wouldn’t Genny Light be your crappy beer of choice?
I'm not so much concerned about abv as price
Theres not shortage of great craft beers in Philly, but on nights when i’m drinking 10+ beers those extra 2 dollars a pint really add up.
Drinking beer watching baseball? I’ll go with Coors Light in that situation.
I can’t stand Coors Light. For cheap beer at a ballgame, I’ll go with Miller or Pabst.
Too sexy for my hurt.
I can't stand Miller or Coors
Coors literally makes me want to vomit when I taste it. I’ll drink bud light or pabst if I have to be drinking crap.
Miller I can see
Pabst? Yuk.

I know because you are part of the bourgeois class who spends $1000s at WeHo strip clubs
Too sexy for my hurt.
Oh, yeah, that's me.
Wearing my sundress and saying things like “Well, it’s no White Zin, but…”

Only thing in Blue Velvet that made a damn bit of sense
“Fuck that! Pabst Blue Ribbon!”
You can't fix stupid. Stupid is forever.
I might be there.
Wearing my drink responsibly t-shirt.

Stacey, if he shows and wears it...
I’ll buy his 3rd drink. You’ll have to spot me, though.

I will be there!
Here’s hoping 2010 gets off to a great start.

My shirts arrived last friday
The Orange ones fit pretty well, but the black one is a little tight. All are larges, but the black ones are Fruit of the Loom and the orange ones are some other brand that I’ve never heard of, but seem very high quality. Money well spent!
