![]() awesome idea question is who is going to pick up Downes?
Chuck 'bags' is similar to 'washers' horse shoes but you're throwing bean backs at a box with a hole cut in it. Tim this is really going to happen? Remember you talking about it a couple weeks back.

![]() Haber,
I hope you get ti to work, and I think you're on the right track by offering discounted prices on everything. Canterbury has "buck night" on Thursday, where everything except beer (beer is still discounted) is only $1. Admission, hot dogs, pop, programs, etc. It realy attracts a "young" crowd on that night. Sittin out in the grandstand for eye-candy alone is almost worth it lol. So yeah, I think you're going in the right direction for the way to get students here, but YOU STILL NEED PROMOTION!!!!

i see a lot of people playing it pre-game for Redskins games. It's like a small skate/launch ramp with a hole in it and the bean bags you used to play with in montessori school and whats wrong with "hey can i get a soda?" I went to school in WV and i would get into some long debates on the whole soda/pop thing -bt- |
