Hey all you cool cats in the Tri-County Area!

Come increase your awesome quotient by meeting up with us on Saturday, May 12th, 2:00PMish at Haulover Beach in North Miami!

Yes I know this is ridiculously short notice.

Yes I also know Haulover Beach is well-known as a clothing-optional beach. Rest assured that it is "clothing required" for all GAF members in attendance.

Sing! Dance! Be merry! Possibly burn! What could go wrong?

See you there!

 

[Horse Detective]

Damn, Orlando meet up ain't' ever happening.

 

[ZeroRay]

What could possibly go wrong?

 

[Hawkian]

What could possibly go wrong?

I KNOW!

 

[Steelrain]

That would require driving in Miami.

Why would you put people through that?

 

[IrishNinja]

damn OP, mad late notice! if i hadnt made plans to go to Wynwood art walk id hit it up, even though my vampiric ass would prolly burst into flames, haha. what time you gonna be there till?

Damn, Orlando meet up ain't' ever happening.

July 14th, dude!

That would require driving in Miami.

Why would you put people through that?

yo i know driving down there sucks but i hurrd irishninja is down that way, might be worth the trip nahmean

 

[Hawkian]

Let the record show I did NOT choose the location.

edit: Dunno what time we're gonna be hanging out til. Possibly days or weeks if that's what it takes.

And nice, Bastille Day! I'd love to make the trip up for that.

 

[ZeroRay]

Let the record show I did NOT choose the location.

Sorry.

But hey, I can take the bus there! That was my main reason in choosing the location btw.

 

[Hawkian]

Hey nice. Wonder if I could take the TriRail...

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Man what the fuck. I'm going out of town on business FRIDAY.

 

[MWS Natural]

Too far on such short notice! Wasup with Tampa-GAF??!!

ya'll can come through on 7/14 though!
haha my bad OP, lemme stop hijacking your thread now

 

[Hawkian]

Man what the fuck. I'm going out of town on business FRIDAY.

Lame. We could have geeked out over the Avengers in person.

lol, hijack away, I'd love to attend that as well.

 

[Log4Girlz]

I always work on Saturdays. Take pics!!

 

[IrishNinja]

Spoiler

heh, Log is on that Avengers shift.

anybody else going?

 

[cj_iwakura]

Man, at least use an arcade in Hollywood or Aventura or something. I loathe going to Miami, no offense.

I'll be back in town Saturday afternoon, but I'm not fond of beaches. Dave and Busters? That's another story.

 

[Hawkian]

Where's the closest Dave and Busters anyway?

 

[Log4Girlz]

Spoiler

heh, Log is on that Avengers shift.

anybody else going?

*sobs*

 

[Hawkian]

Maybe we should crash his theater

 

[GrizzNKev]

Woah. What. Beach? Miami? In two days? Maybe if I had my own car, but... not likely. Plus I'd probably never fit in at GAF meetups... too young and don't drink. oh welllllll

 

[ZeroRay]

Where's the closest Dave and Busters anyway?

I think it's in Hollywood.

 

[kehs]

Meetup at Haulover, and it's clothing required?

Pfft, might as well make the meetup in southbeach then.

 

[Hawkian]

Pau can't drink. I think that has something to do with why we're going to a beach. It has been made clear to me that it doesn't have anything to do with why we're going to a nude beach.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Take pics guys.

 

[BattleMonkey]

Should do the meet at Tates Comics or something.

Also D&B probably would be closer to you guys at the Dolphin Mall

 

[Log4Girlz]

Take pics guys.

Of your genitals.

 

[bengraven]

Whatever maaaaan, we'll just chill up here in Gainesville then.

 

[Cuban Legend]

West Palm GAF REPPING UP IN THIS

Damn I wish my car wasn't acting up, I'd drive down there like nobody's business...

 

[CrankyJay]

Doh was in Naples and Ft. Myers all last week.

 

[SouthernDragon]

That would require driving in Miami.

Why would you put people through that?

Why would you?

Maybe I'll go. Maybe.

 

[BreakyBoy]

Way too short notice for me. I just spotted the thread. I also just saw the Zelda Symphony/Orlando meetup thread. I might make that if my finances hold out.

I'll bookmark the thread. Hopefully this won't be the only meetup? If there are future meetups, I'd be willing to pick-up a couple people if they needed a ride. I'm in the South Broward area.

Also, I have to agree, after living here for most of my life, I'm kind of over the beach. Still, that's not a deal breaker at all.

 

[Hawkian]

You.. go to Tate's? Can we be friends now?

I live in Plantation... if there are a number of you that close to me then we should definitely do another meetup soon

Whatever maaaaan, we'll just chill up here in Gainesville then.

Why couldn't I get on GAF when I was still at UF?

...holy fuck it's been a long time :O

 

[BreakyBoy]

Tates is an institution man. I've been going there for well over a decade now.

 

[Hawkian]

ME FIRST

how can you guys have been this close all these years??

Yeah, the short notice is what you get when you have 3 Miamians organize this. The WrassleGAF meetup we did was set up a month in advance.

Yeah, hopefully the next one won't be on such short notice. And I'll hold you on the ride.

 

[IrishNinja]

dolphin mall, right around the corner from me. or up in hollywood, my chick works at that one.

Should do the meet at Tates Comics or something.

yup. Tate's would be cool too, we shouldve done last saturday for FCBD though!

Whatever maaaaan, we'll just chill up here in Gainesville then.

haha ew

Tates is an institution man. I've been going there for well over a decade now.

that place is amazing, and it's not like we have shit left open down here for comics besides A&M, buuuuut...the prices (outside of their sales out front) aren't so good. i keep looking at trades and thinking "I wonder how much amazon has this for".

Way too short notice for me. I just spotted the thread. I also just saw the Zelda Symphony/Orlando meetup thread. I might make that if my finances hold out..

if you're going, post there too, help me keep that thread alive man! heh.

 

[Karkador]

Do we have to do this at the beach? It seems like a rather not-popular idea.

On the other hand, dorky hangouts like arcades/comic book stores seem pretty short-lived as far as meet-ups go, and aren't very social places.

 

[IrishNinja]

fightin' words

Spoiler

i figure you go to a bar after that

Done.

moving a fleet of people from place to place, all of them in their own cars, is one of the most annoying things to do in south florida

If you guys decide to go somewhere else, I'm down. Provided I can take the bus there or any of you can give me a ride. Really sucks to be without a vehicle in this god forsaken town. -_-

 

[bengraven]

...holy fuck it's been a long time :O

I think there's maybe two or three other people in this area. TheSeks lives literally on the other side of the lake I'm looking at right now - we gotta hang out some time. And there's another GAFfer at UF...

Maybe the central/northern FL GAFfers can find a decent middle ground.

haha ew

ah, this is a man who lives in or near miami. fair point, but i still wish i could get a group over to the new arcade down here, then maybe ale house or something.

haha, you know how it is! i got mad friends from down here that went to UF, we gotta clown on em sometimes, it's regional law. all love though!

 

[cj_iwakura]

I agree, Tate's would be ideal. Maybe in the summer?

I've literally been going there since they opened.


I also go to the Hollywood D&B all the time, since I play Pump there.
(NW Broward here)

 

[Hawkian]

Fuck, I can do a Tate's meetup every weekend, it's like 4.3 miles away.

 

[kehs]

Not sure if I can make it this weekend, but if I can I'll definitely post, plus I can give one person a ride. (Unless you want to ride in the back of a pickup).

 

[cousins]

I'll never forget the day I moved out of Florida, I don't think I've ever been happier. Miami's a shit-hole, and living in Pensacola is something I wouldn't wish on anyone.

It's not too late to update the locale!

Seriously, there's a lot we could do at Tate's, and it'd be infinitely less awkward than this beach place.

Could even hang out afterward for fightan games.

Can I wear my dick towel at least?

This shit so doesn't belong in this thread. I'm sorry, I mean I'm happy for you and everything, but come on. Florida's got its crap, meeting up will only improve the status quo. And obviously you won't be in attendance.

Attention! Due to overwhelming demand, the location and date of this meetup will be hereby rescheduled to give people more time! Hereby accepting suggestions as to location and timing. I'm overwhelming cool with Tates, but I'm imagining we have plenty of people who would much rather we do it further south.
