    How about some more main BIF hints?!? Unless I missed some, I've got you at only 5 hints given, and unless you've shipped either to/from a large portion of the group, they don't narrow out many people.

    They will come with time... The sixterhood box is getting a lot of hints because the box is landing soon... The round 3 locals box still has a couple weeks left before it lands... I don't wanna give it away too early :wink:

    The good news. I think that's me.
    The bad news. I may not be getting home til late tonight.
    The good news. That's because I might be dipping a local stout scheduled to be released at the end of the month
    The bad news. I'm still at work.

    Hint #1: Shipping to a state that is smaller than mine in both land mass and population
    Hint #2: The last three straight BIF boxes that I have shipped out have all gone to the same state. This BIF will break that streak.
    Hint #3: My target state is one timezone away from me.
    Hint #4: My target state begins with a consonant.
    Hint #5: My target state has at least 1 NFL team.
    Hint #6: My target participated in Round 1 of this BIF.
    Hint #7: Shipping in an eastwardly like direction.

    Hint #8: My target participated in the Summer 6'er round also.

    Might this be a "Saintly" type of beer?

    Care to elaborate how many OTHER people you've recently friended?

    PS - I like spicy food. Just in case.

    That it is. When it comes out most people buy a good amount of it so that they have plenty in reserve. Don't know about others, but to me 9 bottles seems like a good number to keep in reserve.

    No bottle dipping for me tonight, which means I'll be heading home to a box of beer waiting for me!

    I did end up volunteering for Darkness days and will be getting 6 bottles for sure.....mmmm, Darkness.

    Well NOW I've got it figured out :wink: Which also tells me to whom it's going (or at least I've got it narrowed down to 2 or maybe 3, since I'm not sure who all is signed up)

    I think you're barking up the wrong tree.

    Is this like how you thought @cultclassic89 was also your sender? I think it's wishful thinking :stuck_out_tongue:

    New hint, my target has 2 syllables in their first name.

    Here's a hint: There just aren't that many series of beer around that are still around and started in October 2005. The fact that I had a pretty decent bet on the state based on two of the clues meant less searching, but just googling without that information found the answer on the first page of hits :slight_smile:

    Nope, but just read a riveting wiki bio on Lou Groza the placekicking stud from the Cleveland Browns...

    Is it a state with a university that has back to back Lou Groza award winning kickers?
