I think Michael Bisping is still unconscious from Dan Henderson almost taking his head off too lol..

Brock Lesnar is a joke at best it won't be long before someone beats him..

I was under the impression that it was the 25th still? Or something like that?

Just got back form Busch Gardens.

Was pretty awsome and was free (Military).......... we got to ride tons of rides and had a quick que so got to jump in front of everyone in line......

LOL nothing like being buzzed and going on a roller coaster!

Apollo's Chariot and the Griffin were the two best roller coasters i've been on before.

I dont think the guy in charge of this meet (steve) decided on a time. I mean, it was his idea to have it in the QC.

I'm in charge of this meet? Holy **** that's news to me... I just suggested to have it down here for a change since we never had a meet in the qc.

It really doesn't matter what time to me i'm cool with any time.

I'll be there with the FD.

Might need a reminder tho

Since it's so close to QC might want to let the IL crowd know... just incase they wanted in....

Most likely I'll make the trip with Blade since I don't have anything nice to bring besides the girlfriend's Civic and most of you won't really care about it anyways. At least then I'll be in a RX-7 for a RX-7 meet. lol Anybody wondering about not bringing the 5.0 Vert Mustang - we sold it last year in September. I most likely won't have to work that Saturday but if I do I'll make sure that I take it off - I've worked the past 4 or so Saturdays so the boss owes me it off.

ok, i just called them and i was going to make reservations... just to be on the safe side so we all get a seat together. they have to take a credit card number so in case we dont show the waiter that they call in will get 100 bucks.
i dont mind doing this... but how many people are going to try to make it ?
i will have me my wife and 3 kids...
want to get this all squared away before it gets much closer.
if anyone would rather it be later then 12:30-1pm let me know so we can make proper reservations. the reservation dosent cost anything but bailing does.

Definitely seems like we have some trolling going on. lol

Anyways, I'm fine with that meet time. If we have it too late then things can get complicated - people not knowing where to go in the dark, getting into the Bettendorf hood accidently, etc. lol As long as Blade is going I'll be going for sure. Like I said, I should have that day off and if not, I'll get someone else to take over.

heck this might be a good turnout...
if i set it up for ... 20 people that would be a safe assumption ?? i am probably going to just go over there and set this all up. they have some beer tour going on i am going to see what that is about. funny though it starts on the 25th.

ok guys im going over there saturday when i get the chance so i can see what this beer garden is. they have some beer tour going on and you get a shirt when you drink 10 beers or something.
basically if we get the beer garden we will have a whole area to ourselves so i guess that means we can be obnoxious as we so desire.
they have a buffet for like 9-10 dollars or we can all go in on some pizza together.
if anyone has any questions give me a hollar or text me @ 309-235-3096
they will be expecting us on the 25th around 12:30- 1 ish...
if i am going to cancel the 'reservation' then i will need 24hr notice. however i dont think that will be a problem.

let me know what you guys think...
