FYI...I went to the Dawg House Saloon two years ago in Nashville, a nice Browns Backers Bar. They had a get together Saturday night before the game (Hoyer's big rally). If I can make it down I'd meet up with you guys.

That was kickass Bob! We probably drank beer together, which partially explains why we don't remember meeting each other. I was the squid wearing the red Ohio State wind breaker after they rathoused Maryland. Now if we can just get our pro team to learn how to treat an opponent in Maryland....

You're in.

Gracias... Tried to send you the following PM, but no bueno...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Obviously is a ways off, but when you have a moment, please let me know about Ticket arrangements. If your group is buying a block, I'd be more than happy to send refundable buy-in your way.

Later I'll bug you about itinerary, etc...

Looking forward to it.

Z (and others) let me ask an honest question about these meetups...what's the age demographic like? Is it mostly older adults or are there a mix of younger folks too? Honestly, I could care less but I'm just curious if there's more people in my age bracket (late 20's-early 30's).

What would anyone think about spending the week before the game in Naples with a gang of us and the Z-man? I see a possible opportunity to attain a 3BR condo in Naples from Sept. 17 - 24th for a reasonable price. It would accomodate up to 8 people.

Or, I see where a 3 BR can be obtained in Ft. Lauderdale (but not on the beach..Weston) for the week beginning Sept. 24th....also for a very reasonable price (around $600.00)

Knowing what I know....those "older adults" that come to these events would likely party the ass off you whippersnappers.

Mostly in the late 70's to early 90's dipshit.

My Inbox was full, I deleted a few so you can PM me again if needed.

Looks like I am going to need the deposit by May 1st, probably in the $50 range ... we are waiting for pricing form the Dolphins, because it is their home opener and they tend to jack up prices for that game, because they know they can fill it.

We will have two itineraries planned ... one for those travelling to Miami on their own and getting a hotel Saturday night and attending the Official Browns Backer party, and one for a bus leaving Naples sunday morn and coming back Sunday evening.

I think I have you e-mail, but send it to me just in case, that way you will be notified by our newsletter whenever announcements are made.

We have some dudes in their 20's and they are a lot of fun. The biggest demo is 50's and 60's but we have bunches of young and old, they all party together.

Here we were last year at the exhibition game in Tampa:

Lol...yeah I bet I did meet you. My wife and I pretty much stayed at the front of the bar during the OSU-Maryland game. Then a 'Bama crowd came in for an alumni party. We stayed for that too...lots of hydration. 'Bama lost to Ole Miss and the Browns party was on!!

My father-in-law is south florida born and raised and is now in his mid 50's. I can tell you objectively that man can drink me under the table, and he has several times.

Thanks for the info Z. Again we haven't officially moved down but I the wife and I would for sure be in the group of getting to Miami Saturday for the party Sunday. What's the best way to get on the correspondence for that?

PM me your email. And like the Naples Browns Backers Facebook page.

We will hook you up with a fun group for the Miami game.

& for reunion weekend- it's anyone from their 20s to 70s. Me & Zombo met up with BBedward (who's in your age bracket) before a game this past fall at the Tilted Kilt and a fun time was had by all.

Agreed. Them Brits sure know how to down Guinness at a prodigious rate.

Super cool. I'm excited to enjoy some games with fellow Browns fans, I'm usually that one Browns fan at the random bar at the old CCTV in the corner. I don't care about age in the slightest but I was just genuinely curious what the crowd was like.

Tampa get togethers - where legends are made dating back as far as 1999.

Looking forward to it, hit CLE with G Man and KMac19 in 198 days, not that we're counting. Last year was a very bitter omission to our 100% year on year attendance but both me and GMan's family have told the Big C to take a bus so we'll be there!! Ready to Crush "America's team".

Excellent news. Look forward to seeing you. Keep the Northmen at bay there in Mercia.

(err, are you in Mercia...or in Wessex?)

Ha! we are old Mercia here!

[Tour2ma]

Don't think I'll make it, but the Oct 9th, Pats game would be the one I'd target.

Regime in and regime out we seem to play them tough.

Ahh.....maybe you are a descendant of Offa? Or the Lady of Mercia, Aethelflaed.
