10/4 Tailgate: Bodies & Goodies - Update, Free Ticket!

by lynnzgal on Sep 28, 2009 3:15 PM PDT Comment 113 comments

Hellooooo!

So, this is it kids! We're about a week away from the A's last game of the season and our farewell tailgate. Don't know about you, but even with the dearth of sports we have during the fall and winter, I will still miss baseball. The crack of the bat, lazing in the sunshine, the good company, the hilarious game threads...I could go on and on. Waaah! It went by so fast!

Anyway, back to business. The tailgate to end the season. Sniff!

Thanks to everyone who purchased the group tickets. We'll be in Section 108, Rows 14, 15, & 16.

Update: Hey all! I have one free ticket for Sunday. Please email me if you can use it!

Thanks, too, to everyone who has already committed to bringing food and equipment. You make my life easier and you are the best party people ever!

With this post I would like to get a fairly accurate head count, of both the group ticket holders and those who already had them, for the tailgate. Who is coming and who can contribute.

Our needs are thus:

Grills

Brunchy things

Tables

Chips and dips

Sides

Beverages

Sweets

(I'll be bringing the condiments, utensils, cups, and paper goods)

My plan is to set up here at around 9:30am. That is the East side of the North Lot A, Rows 12 - 14. Email me if you need my cell to make sure you can find us. Help for this stage is very much appreciated!

Please respond in the poll below so's we can plan accordingly, and thanks again everyone!

For those who can't make it this time, a little story. Earlier this year we held our own awesome fANfest at the John Lewis Glass showroom in East Oakland because the A's organization decided to go in a different direction with their fan appreciation day. We had a great time, and Nico has expressed the wish to make it an annual gathering. I'm all for this and I think Mr. Lewis would also be okay with it. So, come February, we'll no doubt do a little preseason gathering in anticipation of ST and the 2010 season. Stay tuned! And...

Let's Go Oakland!

Poll

Are you up for more fAN festivities?

Oh yeah! Count me in, and I'll be packin'

How much sausage are you bringing?

I had some that I bought from Costco earlier in the summer for a party. A bunch of people said they liked them. I was going to go back to Costco and see if I could find them again.

They reminded me of breakfast sausages in a way, even though they weren’t.

I have a group ticket

I can bring my little tray tables. Last time I brought a lot of chairs and most seemed redundant, but I’ll bring a couple of extras. I can get there at 9:30. I can bring whatever foodstuffs aren’t already taken — I don’t really have any brunch specialties but I can wing it.

Oh yeah and the Bellini stuff. How many people are we?? Some will be drinking beer I assume. Wondering how much to bring?

Hi everyone, sorry I'm late!

Gus and I are shooting for 10 a.m. with a french toast breakfast casserole thingy and either some beer or mimosa stuff.

Looking forward to seeing you all again!

Ms. Jesa

Are we all ready?

I was able to find the sausages at Costco that I had over the summer. Oh crap! Buns! I’ll have to stop at Safeway on the way up to the Coli.

I got buns! No worries!

I can not make it, free ticket up for grabs

Sorry for the late notice but I got called out of town at the last second. Any one who can use my ticket can have it. I will email Lynn to let her know.

btw, I also have a ticket available...

…but it’s not in the AN group section, it’s Mr. Poppy’s ticket next to me in section 216 row 12. The mister can’t make it to the game today.

I won’t be arriving very long before game time, so I hadn’t planned to go to the tailgate — but I’ll stop by long enough to drop off my extra ticket to lynnzgal (well, to MEET lynnzgal and then give my ticket to her). I guess I should also email her first and warn her that I’d like her to be my ticket broker… ;) (if it’s not too late… it’s kinda late…)

Prithee, be not perturbed by yon third bagger.

Happy Bullpen Day -- see you soon!

—coffee boy.

I saw Ima Friday evening and she gifted us a parking pass — so we reinvested the savings — there’ll be Kahlua and Irish cream in addition to the normal ovaltine, marshmallers and milk. Thanks, Ima!

Come thirsty!

…and Fly, SLEGNA, FLY!
