Road Trip to Philly
« Topic Start: December 08, 2011, 07:13:07 PM »
I don't know who is running this and I can only assume that it is legit, but someone not affiliated with the team or any other organization as far as I can tell is setting up a group trip to Philly.  Sounds like a blast, although it looks like you'd be on your own for transportation.  One thing to check on is whether the trip will be scheduled for 8/25 or 8/26 since the headline and the text have different dates.
 
I'm out due to a family commitment that weekend, but having been up there last year I'd love to return and watch the Nats beat them again.  Also there's no way I'd comply with this little request: "While this is our mini-invasion of Natstown North, we are asking everyone to commit not only to purchasing a ticket but to not behaving like the Phans do when they come to our park."  Screw that and screw those Philly SOBs.

I'd like to say take the higher road, show them how to act, blah blah blah but they are Philly fans. They wouldn't understand good behavior.

@GburgNatsFan Not running. I'd say helping coordinating it along with @stephanats. She's doing $/tickets, I'm doing (w /help) communications

I saw that you tweeted her, I have no info other than what she's posted.  I'd be in if I thought I'd be welcome back in my house after disappearing on that particular weekend.

Twitter follow?  I almost never post on Twitter so I mostly have followers who are trying to get me to follow them back in order to pump up their counts.

Fixed the title from Bus Trip to Road Trip since there was no bus mentioned in the actual sign up form.

Selected an image from European Road Trip instead of the good old American Road Trip because I just plain like this shot better than one of Tom Green.

I would entertain a road trip to just about any city in the world except Philthydelphia. It's bad enough seeing those fans when they come down here. Why seek them out?

I'm sure that the ladies organizing the event would protect you.

Philly has a nice park with good food and drink options, go and wear your Nats gear.

It's a great park.  Just the fans suck.

I would take their protection over yours, stud.

It ain't my safety I'm concerned about. But on second hand, I would be afraid of being puked on.

That's a paradox. You can not have a great park if its habitues are, uh, not so great. The fans make the park, after all.

I had no problems there last year walking all over the park wearing a Nats hat and shirt, of course it was an afternoon game so maybe the locals hadn't been drinking as much as I had.

She was in the short lived NBC series Love Bites this past summer, and still incredibly freaking hot.

I understand where you're coming from.  The atmosphere caused by jackhole fans sucks.  So let's make it suck for them by cheering loudly for the Nats and wearing Nats gear.

I wonder if there will be pictures of drunk Natsfan girls pooping outside at CBP, but they will just be joining the hordes of homeless people and possible zombies already pooping there.

You give too much credit.  Zombies eat brains.  Not much to poop out when they roam around in Philly.

Zombies hang out at CBP when they want to go on a diet.
