Around SBN: SB Nation interviews Jerome Bettis

Any A's fans on the East Coast??

Do you live on the East Coast between Baltimore, MD and Richmond, VA?

Are you sick and tired of being surrounded by fans of teams that bite?

Do you want to hang out with others who love the A's as much as you do?

Yes? Then post below!

I live in the DC area, and I want to get a bunch of us together to take over a local bar and root for our favorite team... The Oakland (soon to be Freemont?) A's.

So, who's with me??

Not too far...
I live in NJ, just across the Delaware from Philly.  DC is too far for me to travel, but don't worry, there's lots of displaced A's fans around.

I live in Raleigh, NC
I'm a bit far away to join you in the bar, but I'm fighting the good fight.

I am trying to get up there for the games in Baltimore...we'll see what happens.

Charlotte here...
DC is too far for me also, but I will continue turning Carolina Blue into Green N' Gold!

Go a's
Go Smokin' Joe
Go CHAVY! nice start and the short swing looks great...

I went to a doctor today and all he did was suck blood out of my neck. Never go see Dr. Acula!

Not exactly east coast
D.C is a long way away for me as well...I live in Eastern KY... far away from almost all of civilization and basically all the A's games... the closest park is Great American in Cincy and that is four hours away... I suppose I too am a displaced fan seeing that only like 3 people can name 1 player from the A's and I can name the entire roster...

DC
I'll be moving back to the DC area later this summer.  I think someone did a poll once and found a few people in DC.  
Signatures? We don't need no stinking signatures.

I know you live on the East Coast
So I don't blame you for not knowing, but I thought, as a local of said city, Fremont only has one E. Just thought you should know! =D

New Bern, NC
I have homes in AZ and in NC. I'm enjoying the azaleas right now.  DC's too far away, but I'm with you in spirit.

DELAWARE A'S FANATIC
I'm in Baltimore from time to time... it's only an hour -- I'm hoping to catch an O's game and cheer for Miggy.  Other than that -- just wear some A's gear every day and come home to check AN after work to see how my A's are doin!

by gorickeygo on Apr 7, 2006 9:19 PM PDT reply actions  

DC!!!
I'm a college student in DC, but if you're planning to go to a game during the summer, I won't be here, since I'll be at home catching games in Oakland!

If we do something out here during the school year, though, I'm up for it.
