3DD HeAthens Homecoming Hangout Fri, 2/12, noon to 3PM

Post by CooleyGirl »

Homecoming always goes by way too fast, and it feels like you see tons of us HeAthens all over the place, but we don’t have enough time to stop and chat with each other.
Come join us at the Transmetropolitan restaurant on Fri, 2/12, from noon to 3 PM. 3DD has reserved the upstairs space so we can have a chance to hang out with everyone, enjoy some food and drinks, and catch up with old friends and hopefully make some new ones. Everyone will need to purchase their own drinks and food, but the reservation of the space is being sponsored by 3DD.
Please join us!

Transmet is located at 145 E. Clayton St. It is in easy walking distance of the 40 Watt. Their website is a bit sparse at the moment, but here it is if you're interested: http://www.transmetonline.com/

Oh, this will be great. Thanks to CG for setting this up. We did this last year and it worked out really nicely; it was a great chance for folks to get together and meet and talk in a relaxed kind of setting. If you're reading this and you'll be in town that Friday afternoon, come on out!

Excellent one of the best parts of the weekend last year but I must remember to pace myself this year.

THE social event of the season. Just a reminder, it's after Labor Day so you can't wear white Bubba

OMG, thanks for the reminder. I'll have to repack but that's better than being the only person there in white shoes w/out socks.

Just wondering, but how do you know it's after labor day and not before labor day?

Good looking out, CG!

I was hoping we were going to do this again this year. I really enjoyed it last year and my wife will be with me this go around and this is a good setting for her to meet everybody being that it's nowhere near as loud as the 40 Watt and easier to talk.

Who drinks Bloody Marys after 10 AM?
I would like to apologize to anybody that I have not offended. Please be patient, I will get to you.

Something happens to time at Homecoming where it all makes sense: a Bloody Mary at 2 pm, Waffle House at 4 am, you name it. My theory is that the rock show produces those gravitational waves that we've been hearing about in the news lately.

A drinking coach for hire might be a marketable commodity in Athens HC weekend...

what's the going rate on a baby sitter for a drunk these days? Actually I kinda like the title of intoxication concierge, but I'm not signing up for the job ;)
