Acceptable wedding etiquette when attending wedding during cats game

[Panjandrum]

My wife's cousin scheduled their wedding for Saturday night at 5 PM.  This is obviously (fart noise).

Is it acceptable to find a place where I can kind of sit incognito with an earbud in my ear while listening to the game?  I'm willing to take a bluetooth headset and pretend I'm one of "those guys" and hook it into my smart phone.

Just looking for a little advice here.  We'll be sans kids during the reception, so I'm looking for ways to sneak out and watch the game on my phone, so any thoughts there would be helpful.

TIA

If you aren't in the wedding party, it will be no big deal.  Just keep the fist pumping to inside your head and no one will even notice.

Dvr and turn phone off?

Pretend to get really really drunk.  Your wife will make you go to the car until she's ready to go.  Profit.

say you have diarrhea

Unacceptable.  This kind of game requires undivided attention.

Unless we're losing by two TD's in the first, then a periodic glance after drinking a few cold brewskies will be acceptable (because the pain will have been numbed by alcohol).

DVR and skip reception due to kids at home puking, imho.

dont go

Should I add "explosive", or would that be taking it too far?

I wouldn't sneak anywhere. "Congratulations, here is your gift <hand envelope with money>, I will be at the bar across the street watching the KSU Cats play. You scheduled your wedding on the same day as the biggest game in 9 years, and I can't miss it. I'll come back at halftime for the Cotton-Eyed Joe or the dollar dance. Good luck!"

no, sounds fake. nobody ever says that about real diarrhea.

this is my preferred if you can trust/manipulate/forewarn the people you're around that they will die if any info leaks

Sneak away and find a television . . . you aren't an integeral part of the wedding, who is going to miss  you?

That's right . . . no one that's who.

 

[Panjandrum]

I will be DVR'ing regardless because, I mean, Gus.

expecially since you have diarrhea

Exactly . . . and I spelled integral wrong.

I was married on a KSU bye week. NU played a big game that w/e. One of my buddies is an NU fan. He said, "Sorry, I'll be in Lincoln on that day." I was cool with that.

Fake your death and come back on Sunday.

It's their fault, say eff them and do what you want.  I was a groomsman last year during the Ok St. game and left to watch the game and came back afterward.  Some people thought I was a dick, but I'd do it again.

This.  The money is all they care about.

relax and enjoy the wedding, we will be winning by 4 touchdowns at that point

As a married person, I would say that if someone ditched out of my wedding for whatever reason, I probably wouldn't have even noticed.

Someone who posts on this board may of been married during Clemente/Pullen KU game in Bram.  I went with earpiece/radio.  To be fair to him, he also glanced over from the altar to get score updates from me.

Get diarrhea for real.  Infect yourself with smallpox.  Break your leg.  How far are you willing to go with this?   

[Dugout DickStone]

They seriously won't miss u.
