That baseball video got me pretty excited for the season, regardless of where we may finish. Back in the day I used to rent a U-Haul and park it in left center. Great view, you can drink etc. Anyone interested in organizing a get-together for Sawmill members? I think we should start formally doing this more often for football, basketball, etc. We can obviously still get tickets too and go back and forth as wanted with the U-Haul.

I'm up for a get together. Wouldn't mind a pre-game hangout/meal at some place like CC's, Fuzzy's, Mak's or some other restaurant with an apostrophe before the Sam doubleheader.

I'm planning to get there for a few games this year, won't be every week though like Basketball.

Are you talking about the Sam basketball DH?

The Sam baseball weekend might be a good one too.

Yeah sorry. Basketball DH. I didn't even think that baseball does play two in a day sometimes. Second Saturday of March if anyone is in town for the Purple Out.

I'm planning on it right now, but also going out of town the next day for Spring Break with the family. So if the rest of the season turns to s h i t then I may skip out on it. There's supposed to be a fan fest that weekend.

Sam series April 12-14...who's down for a get together and tailgate? Might see if I can get some other organizations and Alumni Association to set up a bigger deal with us.

I'll check my calendar in the morning. I'm in if it's clear.

If we can get enough interest, at least from members, we'll get tickets for everyone that's a Premium subscriber.

I'm not bringing the wife and kids to this one. Not saying it wouldn't be family friendly of course.

Would be there but I've got a half marathon in Brenham to run.

Feel like this should disqualify a moderator, especially one who obviously has it out for Ed and I.

I think the Saturday afternoon game would be the best. I'll come in for Friday night as well, but Saturday would give everyone more time to get in and then time to tailgate and hang out.

Also thinking about renting an RV instead of a uhaul, if anyone knows of a good option there.

Purple. If a tent is needed I have one.

I'll bring mine, but always good to have a few. Never know what the weather will be like. Could be raining or could be hot and sunny with some shade needed.

Got it. When it's all confirmed I'll dial it all in.

Can't make it that weekend. I have obligations at a Lions Club Convention in Bay City that weekend. Apologies.

If there's a better weekend that more people can make, we can definitely do that. Just Sam obviously is a huge series.

We have a wedding to go to in Ennis that Saturday. Ugh. Should be there Friday. Maybe Sunday.

That's my anniversary, wife probably wouldn't be too thrilled with that one.

I mean, the SLU series is a pretty big one too...but that's next weekend so getting pretty close.

Any other thoughts from anyone about any of this? I'm either going to start moving forward with some stuff, or not, just depending on everything.

I'm rather inclined to support the Sam series. Specifically Saturday. 1. As previously noted ITS SAM! 2. Early enough to still be in the 80's. 3. Maybe we maintain strong momentum and it's a really pivotal series.

Going to push on for Sam Houston weekend, got some good feedback from some of the baseball parents/supporters so going to try to set up a tailgate with everyone.





Going to try to get people to come out to area behind LF, set up some tents, get a grill and have some fun. Everyone is welcome.

Uhaul reserved.

Changed the thread title since it seems most Sawmillers can't come. Let's work on something else for a get together.
