Ok, I'm currently in negotiations with a venue on mass street about having a Fattyfest like event hours before the November 30th game with Kansas. I'm trying to get a better head count for the next email i send them. They loved the Fatty Fest motion picture: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUQtsV0Goh4
Who is interested in attending something like this? please say, "yes" somewhere in your response. lol sometimes you guys are so clever in your response i don't know who to take seriously.
If all goes according to plan, we have the potential of accomplishing the following:
- promote goEMAW.com
- Prove once again we are better fans
- raise more cash for Fatty fund
- have a blast
-

That sounds awesome. Plus, I'm sure Beems can give us the skinny on the elite tailgate spots on their hilly thing.

Yes!

yes, but it should be the friday night before. but yes regardless.

60% yes

Interesting, why the Friday before? better EMAW turnout?
If that is a better option in terms of EMAW turnout, how would i convince the owner of the venue?
b/c from their perceptive they want to make more money by booking events during days and times they are slow.
Friday night on mass street is usually a profitable time for most bars.
I would have to argue for a earlier time like from 7pm to 9pm window.
That time frame is after dinner rush and before night life patrons.

It absolutely should not be the night before. It should be Saturday so we can pak, raise a few dollars, go to the game, celebrate winning the game, pak some more.

Obviously you need to work it out where showtime is contingent on what time the game is, which you probably won't know until 1-2 weeks before. I doubt you're looking to have an 8am show before an 11am game.

Wish I could make it Abe, but I can't. These guys speak truth though. Probably an early game and if you do it on gameday, you would run the risk of having to adjust the time to the gametime 2 weeks prior

Yes (with clams). That's 450 lbs of the best and brightest of gE elites.

11 am is most likely with 7 pm ABC/ESPN the only other remote possibility if the cats are in the BCS hunt, imo. I think a 4 pm show could be a great great postgame, one that could reach hundreds that FFFest usually doesn't reach.
If Sams is leading us to Pasadena it becomes an epic pregame in the worst tailgating destination for visiting fans

swoorlies?

This is really simple. You make a deal with the bar that if the game ends up being at 6pm or later, the show will start sometime between noon and 3 (I don't know, solicit feedback here about whether people would want to F14 and then tailgate or have F14 be the tailgate. If the game is in the 11 or 11:30 slot, F14 will be immediately after the game.
Not sure what everyone would prefer for a 2:30 game, I'd lean towards pregame F14 being the tailgate vs. thinking anyone could commit to doing something at 6 after all day of pak'n and such.
Regardless, in any of those scenarios, your MysBar is getting a boost during the day and you're cleared out by evening for them to do whatever squawks do there.

Trim breaking it down like a boss :thumbs:

what if the game is on a thursday?

what if the game is on a thursday?
F14 show on my balcony and/or at a bar across the street before, during and after the game.
