I don't think I've met 50... I don't know, maybe I have. I will vote on the cautious side and say I haven't.

You just gotta walk around town yelling "The sky is blue!" and see if anyone responds. Actually, that may be a good ice breaker for those of you seeing others browsing CP in class...

I've met, in person, 3. There are a few others in Lethbridge I wouldn't mind meeting. I won't make the get together for the home opener but there is 82 games, I'm sure we'll meet for another game.

I have many friends from playing online games such as Medal of Honor and Call of Duty2, but haven't met any of them in person.

There are a few people I've seen at stores, or some sort of gatherings and I"m sure they were CPers but was too shy to say "Hey I'm a geek! Aren't you too?"

Wait... there are Eagles fans?

I kid, I kid.

Believe it or not, I actually WORK with people I've never met--I edit an online journal, and the other editor and the publisher who hosts the web space are both guys that I've only ever corresponded with over email.

Still trying to figure out how I got that job...

Met a few other interesting characters... none that I wouldn't enjoy a beer with every now and again... except one, who can't drink alcohol, so I'll drink the beer, she can have milk, which I can't.

This is one of those time where you wonder....

If I sat down for a beer with all of those guys, what would happen?

And then the answer becomes plainly obvious...

I'd be banned from beer in about 25 seconds.....

J/K, they all seem like stand-up guys.....

I used that one of the playoff tailgate events outside the dome and I got a bunch of deer in the headlight looks. I swear I heard the table say something about Calpuck.

I've never met anyone from here, although back in the late 80's when it was all BBSs (before the Intraweb gots popular, yah?) I went to a "meet the members" party for the Raunchy Rubberbandland BBS which permanently turned me off of ever doing that again - sometimes it's better not to match up the face behind the handle.

Can't have milk either! Coke, Dr Pepper, O'Douls when desperate for the taste of beer

Just read this thread - I forgot I met a few others at Peanut's once, and I ran into a few when I split season tickets with people on here back in the dark days. I remember JohnnyFlame was one for sure...I voted 6-10, but it's probably closer to 20. Funny.

Hmm, I said none, but have since remembered that I worked with somebody who knew me from CP, and two friends of mine joined a year or so ago.

I've had 3 other people hear my name and ask if I'm the Anthony from CP.
