I'm gonna guess maybe 10pm-10:30

And for those with an early start on Saturday morning, I'm in that boat as well as I have to get up at 04:00 for SFPD recruit training* so if I can do it....

*and if you come, I'll tell you all about it

This would have been a nice first DO for me. Darn. No celebrations at SFO T3 Monday afternoon? Wonder if anyone will be buying a round at a UC in honor of Jeff?

Will tentatively attend +1. Never been to a FT meetup; curious about it. I hear y'all are a friendly bunch! If I do come, it will probably be a little later (8 ish), I imagine there'll still be people around.

unfortunately due to work schedules we will not be in the city until Saturday AM. if anyone wants to meet up on Saturday for round 2, feel free to reach out. in the meantime, have fun!

For those of you on the the tentative list, if you could post as soon as you know as I need to give a head count by this evening*. The reservation is under the name "David".

I am going to be an hour late (forgot about a prior family commitment)-but you will be in the great hands of l'etoile and Pat89339 until I arrive

*walk ins are always welcome (and yes, I'm bringing Tootsie-Pops® )

This is what happens when I don't check the community buzz for a few days!

I know I'm late to the party, but please count me in! Look forward to celebrating!
