Grey Cup Week Festivities

So who's all going to what next week?

 

There's 3 of us making the roadie from Calgary next Wednesday. So far, other than the game itself, we've just got tix for the TD MB Social at the Convention Centre on Friday afternoon. Hoping they have the Jets game on a big screen, as the Jets play Minnie that afternoon. Either way, should be a good time!

 

A lot of the team parties, like Riderville and the Atlantic thing....are cheap or free....so we'll be at a lot of those I suspect. 

 

What's everyone else taking in?

Don't worry I got ideas that can please anyone. Safe to assume that someone who likes IPAs likes the hoppiness, well there's a wide range of beers with a varying level of hops.

So now we gotta organize a tastin'....

Too much hair tho, no?

Bring some of that Arrogant Bastard if it hit the shelves yet.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Calgary having been long known for over flowing Arrogant Bastards are in fact much less conspicuous after the loss to the Esks :)

Done and done.  And I mean done!

 

 

I'll see what I can come up with....cops are twitchy about bringing booze across borders, so I generally don't, but I'll talk to Dave and see what he thinks about putting together a Taster Pack. 

 

On this topic, have you seen the "Manitoba Social" taster pack that Ft Garry and Half Pints are doing? I literally don't want to drink anything else ever again.....

Shopping trip to the beer store? **** yes!

You could ask Chris Jones to bring you some but that might seem redundant.

Was heading there Friday

Damn, wish I could get to Winnipeg, maybe meet you guys & hang out in some of my old haunts that are still around.

Ray and I were talking about doing something Thursday - if anything, it's probably going to be Spirit of Edmonton.

 

Friday is an unknown but again, it'll be something.

 

Saturday, we'll be downtown.

 

We'll be figuring out our plans. And figuring out when we're doing an LC run for you two, so give your preferences now. :P

You didn't miss a memo, I had no idea until that message that they even brought these beers!

Haha Mike no need to do an LC run. We've tried every MB beer. And we'll be buying more when we get in. SOE on Thursday sounds good dude...

We'll come up with something you haven't tried yet. Or we'll figure something else out. Just talked to Ray - sounds like we're for sure in for Thursday, so we'll see you there!

Cabs are notoriously scarce in Winnipeg — Manitoba law is also keeping Uber at bay

 

 

What?  Uber isn't allowed in Manitoba?  What the hell?  Is this Canada or East Germany?
