Day 4 stats

Day 5, Wed. December 13th, will be at City Streets on Rt 130 in East Windsor across the street from Finnegan’s.

On a night when most people are out shopping or putting up lights or hanging wreaths, instead of out with us, we find ourselves at the Americana Martini Lounge. It is really a diner (Time to Dine) with a lounge attached. The thing about that is, you can tell people that you are going to the diner, and not out drinking again for the fourth working night in a row. I expected a slow night since it was a Tuesday, but I was so very wrong. We had quite a crowd out and celebrated Scugi’s birthday by singing Happy Birthday so loud that others at a near by table joined in (for Hawker, we’ll work on your other suggestions). The other table was celebrating a birthday also so we sang with them when their birthday cupcake arrived.

We were fortunate enough to have the better halves of Dorian, Andy and Czyz record a point. They were on the west coast or on their way back from the west coast. One thing that is great about the 12 days, is getting to see old and new friends and over the course of the 12 days, having a chance to spend time with each of them.
A few random thoughts….

About 28 of us passed through the Americana last night.

I understand that The Other Joe was there first, followed by Scugi, Frank and The Billionaire Pat Worth

We may have a new Billionaire Pat, as Big Al’s Pat, not Billionaire Pat Worth, makes a business connection while outside smoking that could net him a fortune.
There was plenty of arguing for points and negotiating of future night locations.
We realized that many of the guidelines aren’t really followed.

Our first West Coast crossover point recorded by Alyssa Czyz.

Big Lou pulls a “Stoes”, and slips out while no one is looking and goes to Target to do some Christmas shopping and returns before his beer had gotten warm, that’s mission success.

As the evening winds down, there is Karaoke. We didn’t sing, but there was dancing. Who knew Lou was light on his shoes? (my attempt at a little Dr Seuss) . I left at around 10:30 with a few diehards still at the bar.

With day 5 approaching, we find ourselves getting into the heart of the 12. This is where the late nights, dinners of Buffalo wings and Mozzarella sticks, and drinking multiple beers each night start to really take its toll. We will be heading over to see our second favorite bartender Paddei and favorite DJ, Brett Gash at City Streets. It promises to be another good one.
