Co-ed softball in the Englischer Garten

But but but.. it was your own team you put off
We have the technology!

Very sorry I missed it... unexpected guests are a killer to planned weekend activities.

Hope to be there next time.

@Toast: I'm red as a lobster too...Damn that suntan lotion sucks!!

poor thing- beer isn't suntan lotion!

Some of us are anxious for the next game (despite sore muscles) & I wanted to see if we can get enough people together for Thursday evening. Details are below & as always, newbies (to the forum &/or the sport) are welcome.

What: Co-ed Softball

When: Thursday, 8.September.2005 @6pm

Where: In the English Garden near Dietlindenstr. and Hirschau Biergarten, where the Ultimate Frisbee group normally plays on Sunday (see map below)

Who: Everyone welcome (men and women), even if you have never played before and just want to try it out.

How: Post here- so we have an idea of numbers. (PM if you want a handy number to make sure you find the location)

What to bring: Only yourself and maybe some beer (or other eats & drinks). There's also a kiosk next to the field as well as the Hirschau Biergarten. We have bats, balls, and plenty of gloves for anyone who doesn't have one.

i'll come. same position as last time, mind

ps: but will bring others to play for me. outsourcing is gooooood

I'll think about it, but no promises...

I'll try to make it...It depends on work and how much beer you bring Toast.

@jml
i'm nominating you for cheerleader. if i recall correctly, you do have experience & i'm sure the guys wouldn't mind the outfit. don't worry, i'm sure we can find blackberry colored pom-poms.

count me in

Count me in as well as my wife. Maybe this time she'll spend more time on her feet than her bum.

Sorry, I speak English.

Why is it called "co-ed"? Are there school girls playing with school boys?

yes, wear your vicar frock. it'll be more exciting that way.

ps: Toast you bastard. I is retired.

Ooh, I hope I can make it again. Took me until Monday evening to figure out why my back was sore though. I can only imagine how much persimmon's butt hurt. Just freshly twisted my ankle an hour ago though, so I'm not making any promises until later.

In Chicago (not sure about the rest of the US) we say co-ed for any sports that are open to men and women even if they are adults.

And, I'll be there!

Dont know if I Dare ...

But if you dont Mind, Alex. Dave and Tanya would like to come again...

I'll come along to bat and be the catchy guy with a beer behind the batter

Would love to have the family out again MadGolfer. And of course you too Tom17, can't go without a catchy guy.

Would love to make it out once this year, but that is the same night at the Canadian club meeting.

bring the canadians then

oh carm, c'mon- we'll have a possible 4 canadians! that counts, 'eh?

Sorry, the Canadian Club is my prioritity, as I know what its like to try to keep it going! And I cannot let Norma down!

Just out of curiosity...and my weak Central-North American brain, does a Canadian Club meeting involve a bunch of people sitting around and drinking fizzy water and telling funny fizzy water anecdotes?

not fizzy water- whisky.

Maybe I should attend the Canadian Club and pick up a few pointers. I honestly thought is was club soda, but then again, I thought Dana Carvey was the Prime Minister in the late 80's

/bopping head to theme song from wayne's world, excellent

I'd vote for Dana Carvey over say, Paul Martin...

I will be there .

I'm in, but I haven't played softball in over 10yrs.

I won't be there, I have band. Which I would blow off, but we are playing at a wedding on Saturday and I haven't touched my trombone in 5 weeks.

blow off...trombone... c'mon, you did that on purpose.

sucks you can't go though. we'll see you at the next one.

Come and play between hitting...you can also play on the outfield! Be creative!

Maybe the Hirschau guys will let you play with them...

I will be there, only if you promise me I won't catch Zugluft from the draft off the bats.

wear a scarf and i promise that will keep you safe

I'll be there today. Toast, make sure you bring the whishkey.

I'll be there at 6. But not played softball since school

should be fun though

sweet. now all the team needs is a mullet man.

@canuck
so you can pour out whisky sweat? i just gagged a little at the thought of it.

sorry, its only a nickname. no afro here. but i used to have one

man, that is false advertising.

oh well

you sound almost disapointed... i'll get a wig just for you

you knows it, clart!

I'm sitting this one out, getting krank and crankier by the minute.

and I'm still not-so-eager beavering away at work.

*sigh*

that was great fun again ... thanks to the organizers ...

Toast, thanks for organizing! You're so fabulous with arranging these events.

that was fun & i'm not nearly as sore as i was monday! thanks to everyone for coming out. next time we should just count off for teams so we can have an extra hour for playing.

@ persimmion
be careful- your hilariousness might lead you to pull something.

So whens the next one. I *think* the Forecast calls for sunshine on Wednesday and Sunday of next week

ps: im out of town, just instigating like. running off now. have fun. bye-bye.
pps: glad to hear iceberg slim showed up for the blackberry brigade. represent.

Thanks for organising, I enjoyed the game. Shame I only managed 1 big hit :-)

Will keep my eyes peeled for the next game.

lmao off big gaz. thats pretty funny.

unless you really do count the number of hits you make in co-ed, (with kids, mommies, and a good deal of injured gimps), softball. then what i really meant was um congratulations on your one big hit.
