Hockey Night




the now annual Reading Royals roadtrip was taking place saturday night while the Birds were getting stuffed. Lew managed to ding his truck before even leaving the driveway (damage to Lew's truck has become a recurring theme when we get together for sporting events) this time his brother-in-law's car took the brunt of the damage.

Freeman, the Eagles losing was probably some type of karmic payback for blowing off your friends. speaking of karma i'm not sure what the blonde in front of us did in a previous life to deserve having seats in front of us - the picture is her husband wiping Lew's beer off her face. Lew did buy them both beers to make up for it and for the record it wasn't Lew's fault. come to think of it that's also what he said about his brother-in-law's car. the Royals lost and we retired to The Pike Cafe to watch Eagle's fans go from jumping around pumping their fists, to crying in their beers while blubbering about next year.

good times.

Lew, you freakin turd! now cathy needs to work overtime to pay for the damage to the car and the blonde! poor thing

Matt, did you mean freeman blowing you off (not literally) for hockey or from the reunion?

It was a really great time hanging out with the guys (Robb, Matt & Lew) The ones that bagged on us missed a good time! Matt failed to mention after the Eagles losing (while we were at the Pike) some Eagle fans proceeded to get in a fight with one another causing a scene. (Typical Eagle fans being sore losers).

Steve - yes....there will always be next year....and the year after that.....and the year after that....how long do you want me to keep typing this? Hope is always good!

Judy - sorry that your birds lost as well.

Anyone willing to make a guess who will be in the Super Bowl?
I am going with the Colts vs. Saints.

Robb - no more "three can man"....I moved up to 6.5 - 7 cans.

randy, who is in the bottome pic w/Lew?

randyg said...

I believe it's a guy that Lew went to college with who happened to be at the game. He's the guy who bumped Lew's arm, which in turn, caused him to spill his beer on that poor woman's head. She was at least a good sport about it and Lew at least bought them each a beer (aint he a nice guy?)

i think Robb and Lew called him Memmy? not a college friend though, maybe a friend from work.

Wow, looks like the whole night was a blur. That is exactly how I felt when the Eagles punted with less than 2 minutes to go in the GD season (I'm not bitter, at least no bitter than usual)

Randy, let's not get carried away. 7 beers over 8 hours = 3 can man !!!
Great time, maybe next year we can schedule around the Eagles.

randyg said...

Robb - you gotta give more credit than that.....look how long it has taken me to build up to just that!

Unknown said...
