Second City Hockey's Opening Night Party
You didn't think we'd take in the opener without you, did you?
Anyway, a lot of you know the drill by now. It's Friday, there's a good chance you'll be downtown at work anyway. So instead of heading home, opening a cheap beer and microwaving some food, why don't you knock off work and come join as at The Bottom Lounge (1374 W. Lake st, off the Ashland stop on the Pink or Green line), and watch the games with your fellow inmates of the SCH insane asylum? We'll be upstairs, throwing back libations and having an overall great time. For those who haven't made it out to meet us before, we assure you it's worth it. Oh, as an added bonus I may just be carrying a few copies of The Committed Indian's Season Preview issue, so you can get a look at that before the unwashed masses do.
Come on out, and get a look at what all these freaks really look like.

It’ll be like the Outsiders.

No idea where got came from.

"got"
is the past tense form of “get”. “Get” comes from the Old Norse “geta”, which is derived from the Proto-Germanic “getanan”, coming from the Proto-Indo-European “ghéd”, meaning ‘to seize’. You can also trace it back to the Ancient Greek word “ktaomani”, meaning ‘to acquire or procure’.

Fascinating. I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.
Also, whenever we trade for someone, I will be saying “we ktomanid for so and so..”

Excellent. We'll each hang out at our respective watering holes and meet after the game somewhere dark.

Im a fan of that place too.
My girlfriend lives right around the corner. I go in there from time to time. Much better bar than Galway Arms!

I wish I could be there.
I miss the BL’s garlic fries.
Oh, and watching the game with all the SCHers, too.

Would be fun to be downtown with the SCHers.
One of these days I'm gonna make one of these
Fortunately, the move to Dallas is paying off with me being able to go to opening night. Of course I’d rather be back in Chicago for the Hawks’ home opener but I’ll take it.

And other phrases that will bite you in the “neck”
But seriously, enjoy your evening! Bring home a “W”
Take us to the Silver Chalice!
I happen to know
a Blackhawks game in Big D is a helluva good time. Dirk Graham once bought me a beer.
I'm a pimp, and pimps don't commit suicide.
Those of us who live hours from Chi-town will be home opening a cheap beer, microwaving food, and wishing we were closer to the UC

I commiserate with everyone out of continent.
Given that I’m not out of continent at all (hey, time-zones != continental time differences), all our British friends go through much worse than I. Yeah, I stay up late when we play Vancoufire and the game starts at 10pm my time, but it’s much better than what our Great Britain friends have to deal with on the other side of the great dip for every. single. game.
Still wish I could get to an SCH meetup in person, seems like it would be fun. But yeah, I definitely have zero claims on the ‘hardship watching games’ badge.

Damn I wish I could be there, but I'm going to see Danzig at Congress for Riot Fest
Any of you staying to see the bands afterwards? I was thinking about heading over to BL at some point since that show will run later than the one at Congress.
Wish I could
But I’ll be in Dallas at the game. You should come say hi if you will be too.

Still, you posted the second before you deleted the first.
Deny it all you want, I have proof!
How hard can it be?

not if you refresh...
or after JuliaM sends snipers after you.
At least, that’s what I’m assuming “mehnin aeide thea” means. I have no clue what Saskjet’s reply means either, unless he’s the sniper. And in that case, shame on the two of you for writing it out. Verbal contracts with assassins, not written ones.

I hate you all for living in Chicagoland to even consider going!
But all can be forgiven if the TOS “sponsors/attends” a road trip meeting to NYC in Feb, when the Hawks are playing at MSG!

I drink good beer at home (although it is cheaper there than out), and skip the eating
