    Thanks Shashi, I knew I could get it filled, just wanted to make sure I could bring it full for everyone to enjoy. Once we set a definite date I will make sure my Tired Hands guy is sending to me that week.

    Matt, is there anyway you can schedule it for a day when you'll be out of town? That's the day I vote for.

    Do you even leave McKinney anymore? It doesn't matter when the next one is... CFHsixtywhore = NO SHOW!

    I got nothing.

    Edit: Actually I could have made the last one but unless you wanted to be my beer bitch then being on crutches would have been a disaster. I guess I could have started swinging my crutches at people to get out of the way when I wanted to try a beer on the other end of the table.

    Bad news... very bad news. Craft & Growler is no longer an option to have bottle shares or any type of BYOB.

    A change of insurance providers, one of the conditions was no BYOB.


    We're going to have to get creative on the Dallas side of DFW if we want to have larger shares. As sad as I am, C&G was the perfect spot for these and I think we should all be forever grateful for the shares we did get to have there.

    Fuck fuckity fuck fuck... shit

    Way to f it up Matt, what did you do to piss him off? Just being yourself?

    I shouldn't half joke at times like this. 100% bummer. It will be very difficult to find another place to allow all of us to bring our own beer. But like you said, I never leave McKinney anymore. Hmmm...

    Anyone have any suggestions of places we could do this? I am trying to think and coming up blank.

    I thought about finding a larger BYOB restaurant with a descent sized private room. We'd probably get some sort of restrictions or rules like a minimum/max number of people, minimum sales expectation or possibly a deposit.

    In order to avoid this thread being shut down I'm going to start a new thread/topic so we can find something.

    -Party bus bottle share anyone!!? ....Bathrooms might present an issue.
    -Byob strip club bottle share!!?

    -A nice day and a big picnic table at the park could be perfect. But with that there is always a risk of bad weather.

    -We could rent an inexpensive party venue that is byob and take up collections, this seems like it might be the best option knowing Texas weather.

    Maybe someone here works for a hotel? Let's see if we can use one of the conference/event rooms if we could get hooked up with a good rate.

    I think Hotel conference room or apartment party hall thing are the best ideas. I know the apartment things can sometimes be rented super cheap, especially if its during the day and we are out for night.

    Done and welcome. I'm a big fan of the city of Mansfield, it's one of the best municipalities in the US.
