Hi guys, I do not spend much time on the combo board, but I was talking to Trim about some GE'emawers visiting for the wknd. If you guys need suggestions, directions, etc, or would like to meet up before the Royals/M's game, I am going with a frond this Saturday. Feel free to DM me, respond to this thread, or be like, "WTF, pvegs, we already have a Seattle thread, here it is."
-
i think there is a seattle thread but i don't want to find it
-
Have a good time, pvegs. Go Royals!

We can keep this one as is for this specific PAK weekend.
-
Here's what I know:
King, PMShead and PurpleBear arrive Thursday night. Probably enough time to still get dinner and then PAK.
Friday day - ??? Friday night - there's a royals game that nobody seems deadset on going to. Gooches arrive like at midnight and go to their belltown hotel so thinking we might party there so they can meet us easily.
Saturday day - ??? Saturday night - baseball game, not sure what I'll do given my war with the mariners.
Sunday - PMShead and Bear head out before or by noon. Might use that day to go out east and hike if my buddy's available, or it'll be another free day of ??? King gets on a red-eye that night at midnight.
Monday - Gooches fly home sometime in the morning I think. 2pm city council session on sonics arena. Some sort of chaos thereafter depending how the vote goes.

take them to the locks!!!! :shooturmouth:

And if the 1st 3 want to go by or in the space needle, we'd do it Friday as the Gooches already have.

I've been told to check it (them?) out, and I think I have accidentally while getting lost driving, but no idea what I saw or was supposed to see.

I didn't get it and i got a first hand guided tour from a friend that geeks out about them.

We might as well stay up all night Sunday night. Our flight leaves at 5:30am which means we need to be at the airport at like 3:30, so I guess we need to leave downtown at what 2:30? Which is actually like 12:30am Central time.

But yeah, lol at your southwest flights that are putting you in Seattle for like 2 days out of 4 days off. And yeah, you might as well not have a downtown hotel for that Sunday night. It's possible traffic is gonna be insane even that early Monday morning because of "Viadoom II." You could roll with Winters to the airport for his midnight flight and get dibs on a comfortable place to lay down for a few hours. Or pay a few bucks for a shitty airport hotel to nap in for a few hours.

Yeah, I was trying to make the time zone thing work for my story better.........I tried to get Gooch to fly out on Thursday but he said he couldn't be gone from work for so long or something like that.
-
Your problem was being dead-set on using southwest points.
-
We probably don't even need a hotel for Friday night as we are arriving at 10:30pm which is 12:30am CST*. We could just sleep on the plane and be ready to stay up all night.
*actually correct this time

^^^^^ when using the credit card thread goes wrong
I think it is his fault. He was the one who wanted to use up the SW points.
-
For real though, if nothing can be done about your flights, dump that 3rd night in belltown unless it's free as part of a multi-night deal or you think you can go to sleep at 6:30pm that night. Check out Sunday morning instead, dump your stuff at my place, pak all day, and take the light rail towards the airport sometime late Sunday night after which you'd either hang out at the airport for a few hours or crash at an airport hotel.

Thought there was gonna be a chance with today's ownership change that the war w/the Mariners would be over and I could buy our tickets for the games and not protest the whole thing. Nope!

I think the Locks are pretty great, but I also commercially fish for salmon, so I would geek out on those things. If you go in the spring/summer/fall you can usually catch fish actually swimming through the fish ladder, which is cool. Any trip to the locks also begs for a trip to the Fisherman's Terminal and a jaunt north to Shilshole Marina and the beach at Golden Gardens. Downtown Ballard is also chill.

Def want to go explore Ballard at some point, even if not this weekend. I've hit a few spots there but only in conjunction w/going to the fred meyer that way, so I've never had time to park, or better yet not drive there at all, and walk around.

Pvegs, saturday before the game/protest, I'm thinking of a west seattle water taxi trip and chinatownPAK'n.

Whoever planned our itinerary is terrible at planning trips.

Who's getting a 'cut while they're here?

Last time I was there I went to some restaurant/bar right by the stadiums with really good prime rib. You guys should do that. Or not. It really doesn't matter to me. Just be safe.
-
Also - do NOT got to the BWW downtown in small weird mall thingy. I saw KU beat Memphis for the natty there and the wings were pure crap. Pure crap.
-
I will not be eating any wings or even prime rib when there are crabs and oysters available.

That was Gooch and I's first place to go when we got here because it was the only place showing baseball.
It opened in 2014.

I have to go and apologize to the owner because I PI'd him at a sonics hearing when I thought he was a mariners rep. He was wearing a mariners sweater vest at the time, but was there to speak in support of the arena and his bar is where celebrating any good news on that front takes place. My bad.

It's also where I pak'd with mixed-nutz and hosie.

You ain't never been to Ballard proper? Wth, Trim? I can invite my friend to a Chinatown pak, about which I can only say FORT ST. GEORGE. Bush Garden and House of Hong, also good. But I also would like to get to the game early in order to have (roughly) 6 hot dogs and congratulate Hoz on saving that girl's life at the Bieber concert.

Yeah, I've just driven through Ballard at times for other routine trips and stopped on a couple to eat, but never gone there and taken it all in with nothing to get back to quickly.
Me and zombie KK did Fort St. George. It was incredible. Also took RDrils through there on an afternoon she was passing through to go see family down south.
I still don't know what to do about the game. The mariners took their most definitive crap yet on the sonics wednesday, and then came out the next day having finalized a scheduling agreement that should clear the arena's path.
I can tell I'm gonna be hungover for the next 3 days. Bear's periscope from last night is probably still up.

I'm going to get a weird look bringing a ziploc bag of hair through security on Sunday. It had been two years since my last cut. Sergio is no the only barber I will see for the rest of my life.
