Topic: Worlds 2011 options

Author: S. Edwards Original Message Posted: Jun 13 2011 10:07AM

For those thinking about going to the Worlds this year in Grapevine Texas there is a 15K tournament the weekend before at Runaway Bay, Texas. It's about 60 miles from Grapevine. Flights are the same weather you fly out on Sept 1 or Aug 26th. Just a few more $$ for the hotel.

"Classic Doubles rules differences: Must have "hand" on the rod to shoot (not wrist). Loose balls...No harm-no foul
when going for the ball."

Here is a topic that has about 6 pages of info for this event:
http://foosballboard.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=8654&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

One of the posts from SirFlair (Brendan, owner of the golf course) says:
and to one of places you can stay..... great place. 2 bedroom townhomes 3 beds, rollout sofa bed, full kitchen, on the water, great rate for about 225 for the weekend.
Short golf cart ride to the tourny room. Cart will be supplied to foosers no charge.

Free Golf cart to rip around on? I would almost rather go to this one than worlds. Now I have to ask my wife if I can go for 11 days instead of 5 or 6.

I think the difference between asking your wife and telling her would be the distinct possibility of being served with legal papers that would suggest that the dissolution of your marriage is imminent!!!

Win/Win situation!



Author: perennial underdog Reply #9 Posted: Jun 13 2011 3:03PM

Me thinks there may be trouble in paradise!!Although if I were confronted with the ultimatum "honey,it's me or foosball!" My response,too, would have to be "I'll miss you."

Its fun to joke around about this stuff, but when it comes to choosing between my wife and Foosball I need to look at it this way:

Only one of them cheers me when I'm sad, keeps me awake all night when I'm happy, will be around for the rest of my life no matter what I do, and makes a loud noise EVERY time I slam it in the hole...

My wife said to me she was going to Vegas. That's when I told her I was going to worlds


Author: Will Reply #16 Posted: Jun 13 2011 3:40PM

Very strategic timing, I like that option.


Author: perennial underdog Reply #17 Posted: Jun 13 2011 3:57PM

Simon, it looks like you and will are going to be sharing an apartment soon,I mean with all the alimony and what not!!

Just think,all night benders,strippers,singles bars,and then copious amounts of penicillin.And last but not least,all the foosball two men can play!!

You can call them idiots... mentally challenged even.
