I'm pretty sure everyone here knows you're not going to go at any costs, or encourage drunk driving, or make stupid risks, I just think some of the language makes people worry about bad judgment.

Ah fair enough. I guess what I mean by that, is they can chill at the table and have a couple over the course of the night, I wasn't trying to suggest that they have 4 or 5 beers and then say "nnaaaww I'm all goods to drive boys, lets go!!!" But you make a good point, if it's someone we've never met before, they might sit around the table, have 3 or 4, then say they're fine, only to crash and kill someone. Actually, I don't think I could live with myself, if I let them drink and then they killed someone.

Are you renting a van? Or is said driver supposed to have one that'll fit you all??

Also, where is the "pub of choice" going to be? Like what part of the city.

I'd consider it. I don't have any plans to drink as I'm moving the next day. But I don't have my own transportation so something would have to be worked out to get my ass home as well!

Cool, yeah wasn't trying to be the wet shirt, I was just trying to show why some people (myself included) were starting to throw out a few warnings. We know most was in jest, we're not that slow...

I'd offer myself but I won't be able too.

We're getting the van, as for the pub, we haven't really discussed that yet. What part of the city do you live in?

How the hell are you supposed to get wasted without drinking?

In all seriousness though, that's awesome! Now we just need a van.....

wow.. renting a 15 person van from budget is more expensive than an RV... except I doubt an RV is a viable option. Someone has to know someone who can lend us a van for the evening... my only concern is fitting 10 people + 10 bags + 20 sticks....

Alrighty, 50 bucks and 25 for gas and i can get a guy to haul our equipment there and back assuming we can pack it all in the back of my truck, being a long box i would think we would be able to get 10 bags + sticks in there.

So now it's just a matter of a reliable vehicle? And has the other team responded? IE: Are they fielding a team?

So we basically just have to find someone with a vehicle capable of seating 9 or 10 people now eh?

As long as your equipment is taken care of, why not just book couple cabs?
