not me, but I'd bet $ on the guy/woman dressed in silver from the 2008 video link from the article you posted, that guy/gal smoked the rest of the entrants.

I can meet on Nov 1...will also be returning from the Chicago Seminar.

Unless TWAB747nomore says otherwise, I'm going to consider a November 1 HH and dinner in Arlington a confirmed event.

Would HH beginning at 6:00 pm, with dinner following at 7:00 pm be appropriate?

Since there seem to be more votes for Liberty Tavern than Lyon Hall, why don't we make Liberty Tavern the venue (again, unless TWAB747nomore, who is the organizer, says otherwise).

I'll list this event in the first post later today. If TWAB747nomore creates a post listing the details of the event, including attendees, I'll link to that post.

Don't see my name on confirmed list.

TWAB747nomore Oct 27, 2011 2:31 pm

Update
 
So Brief update..... with the number of people planning to attend we are unbale to make a reservation at liberty tavern for a group of that size around 7

nothing will change about the happy hour portion

I can make a reservation at la tasca for our group, which is just about 2 blocks down the road. we can travel there for dinner if we want a reservation . Or take our chances as walkins without a reservation for group of about 10 at liberty tavern.

What are peoples views this? event is still on and all just wanted to give everyone this info and see what everyones reaction was

Liberty's better than La Tasca anyway. But if they are full, there's a larger restaurant only two doors down, Spider Kelly's. (Oldtimers may remember part of it as the former home of Queen Bee, a great little Vietnamese place.)
