Title: Anyone else going to Jacksonville? Post by: doctord56 on December 08, 2009, 11:58:32 am Tommy and I are taking the party bus to see the Dolphins-Jags game this Sunday. I'll do my best to keep Tommy in line and out of the clutches of any local gendarmes. Anyone else likely to be there for a little TDMMC get together?

Title: Re: Anyone else going to Jacksonville? Post by: YoFuggedaboutit on December 08, 2009, 01:05:13 pm I'll remember my camera this time. Doc, send me the address to your Ormond Beach place so I can mapquest it for Sunday morning.
Title: Re: Anyone else going to Jacksonville? Post by: YoFuggedaboutit on December 13, 2009, 10:00:12 pm Great game today and Doc and I had a wonderful time and met a bunch of nice people on this bus, some of who will be joining this site.
Pics and elaborate stories will come tomorrow. Title: Re: Anyone else going to Jacksonville? Post by: doctord56 on December 13, 2009, 10:10:53 pm Tommy and I were sitting underneath some of the sky boxes, and it turned out Steven Ross was right above us in his box. We caught his attention, flashed our dolphin jerseys, and Mr. Ross pointed at us, and pumped both fists into the air.
Tommy then made the fins sign above his head with his two hands clasped together, and Mr. Ross did the same. This may be the greatest moment of Tommy's life. Title: Re: Anyone else going to Jacksonville? Post by: YoFuggedaboutit on December 14, 2009, 03:18:34 pm A few pics from the Jags game.
Doc and I having breakfast at Shoney's before the game. We walk in, see two waitresses in Jags shirts and they shrank back from us in horror. (http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a282/YoFuggedaboutit/IMG_1043.jpg) Doc and I pose in the parking lot with three of our would be busmates. (http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a282/YoFuggedaboutit/IMG_1044.jpg) On the bus, everyone was drinking and having a wild time. (http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a282/YoFuggedaboutit/IMG_1045.jpg) Doc and I at the tailgate party. There was a LOT of food, beer, soda, and liquor to go around. (http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a282/YoFuggedaboutit/IMG_1046.jpg) Doc makes conversation with a couple of the people on the bus with us. (http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a282/YoFuggedaboutit/IMG_1050.jpg) Three people who we got to know while on the bus. (http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a282/YoFuggedaboutit/IMG_1048.jpg) There was a ton of food to go around. Burgers, hot dogs, pulled pork sandwiches, and all the sides to go with it. (http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a282/YoFuggedaboutit/IMG_1054.jpg) Doc and I with RJ, the guy who put this party bus together (http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a282/YoFuggedaboutit/IMG_1055.jpg) Hey D_B, I hooked up with a Donkos fan.

(http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a282/YoFuggedaboutit/IMG_1057.jpg) Two jags fans who heckled us throughout the game and on the bus ride up. They were quiet on the way back.

Some stupid Jags fan ruined the picture.

Doc makes conversation with one of the Jags fans who heckled us. He was kinda quiet. (http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a282/YoFuggedaboutit/IMG_1072.jpg) Doc looks on as another busmate prepares to throw him the ball.

Post by: YoFuggedaboutit on December 14, 2009, 03:37:34 pm Was the tailgate supported by the stadium? Was it all a big package with the bus ride? It was a big package with the bus ride, not supported by the stadium. For $150, we got everything included. We ended up with pretty good seats which happened to be under the visiting owner's box. Title: Re: Anyone else going to Jacksonville? Post by: YoFuggedaboutit on December 14, 2009, 03:44:07 pm A couple of inside jokes. Doc's story about being under the owner's box is very accurate, with the exception of it being the greatest moment of my life. More like it made my day.
On the way to the stadium, RJ got on the mic and read the "Code of Conduct" at Alltel Stadium. Here's some rules and how the bus reacted: 1. No rowdy or disruptive behavior. OOOHHHHH RAHHHHHHHHH!!!! LET'S GET OUTTA CONTROL!!!!! 2. No impairment or intoxication that results in rowdy or disruptive behavior. AS LONG AS IT DONT RESULT!!!!!! YEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!! 3. No profane or abusive language MOTHERFUCKER!!!! WHAT THE FUCK WERE THEY THINKING?? Title: Re: Anyone else going to Jacksonville? Post by: Dave Gray on December 14, 2009, 04:04:50 pm It was a big package with the bus ride, not supported by the stadium. For $150, we got everything included. We ended up with pretty good seats which happened to be under the visiting owner's box. Transportation + Ticket + Food + Beer for $150? Not too shabby. Title: Re: Anyone else going to Jacksonville? Post by: doctord56 on December 14, 2009, 04:49:45 pm Transportation + Ticket + Food + Beer for $150? Not too shabby. It was a great deal, and we had a hell of a good time. The win by the Dolphins, ugly a win as it was, made it all the sweeter. Title: Re: Anyone else going to Jacksonville? Post by: Rick on December 14, 2009, 05:51:27 pm Glad you guys got such a good deal and had a blast! Thanks for sharing the pics!
