Essentially Flyertalk / Chings B-Day / 4 Olives / Egg / Baseball Pak
« on: April 19, 2010, 02:39:18 PM »
So I made it back to Manhattan this week for a pretty epic event -- Chingon turned 50!* As expected, good times were had by all. 
(*Just spitballing here - no clue how old he really is)
We started the Pak off with a fancy surprise dinner at 4 Olives where WRFF met up with Mr. KK. Mr. KK had a very fetching Rodney Dangerfield look going, while WRFF was all over the proper protocol here as well (someone who shall remain nameless showed up in shorts
). Thanks to the stimulating dinner conversation, the night flew by. (We laughed several times at the non-elites who didn't make the invitation cut.)
Next morning was Eggpak (pt. 2) with some fantastic brunch at Chingon's before eventual trip to take in the BatKatz destroy Baylor. Following are some photos from said BatKatz game:
Beautiful Tointon Family Stadium.
Willie the Wildcat.
Weird Robert yelling at the Baylor players. In this photo, I believe he was calling for a double play with two outs.
WRFF with the wife. (Note elite goEMAW.com attire.)
Chingon with his own invention -- combofan baseball. (Note the knuckleball handsign addition to the standard lynch mob sign.) Also of note: Chings performed a double fist pump whilst doing the Wabash during the 7th inning stretch. The spectacle of this was simply awe-inspiring.
Later that evening we enjoyed Little Apple's 15th Anniversary with close friend Wally Judge (he's ready to dominate next year
) before finishing our night with drinks at Aggieville.
Pretty great 'Pak, all in all.

about picking sides tonight. Just want a good game.
but then remembered how last year ended and got a little 
What has changed since last year? For all the talk of depth on the roster, I think it's simply a matter of the starters getting better.
