    Is there a body count for this yet? I would love to attend both the meet and greet and the game. My wife may, may not attend, but we will buy a ticket if she does. :)

    The people that weren't there aren't Zeroes. They're nothings.

    El Pres - 1 (Maybe 2 more and a place to store luggage.)
    BBert - 1
    Strenuus - 1
    Jfizz - 1 (1 more)
    Dviss - 1 (maybe 1 more)
    Eastoff - 1
    Orion Baily - 1
    Bones Jones - 1, depending if children are allowed.
    HomerLovesKoolAid - 1 (plus 1 more)
    BlazingGiants & UncleCliffy'sDaddy (going but already got tickets from Wheels)
    42N8Bounce - 1

    I'm counting 15 tickets. I have 30 but I held back 5 for RipCityTwo staff. With the exception of Strenuus no other staff wants to go. This is an embarrassingly low turnout. If more of you don't sign up I guess I will give some tickets to Pinwheel Empire and Blazers Edge.

    I really... REALLY want to go to this. The only thing holding me back is another extraction, which I -have- to do on Friday mornings (literally no other time works for me and my schedule and the dentists' schedule)... if it falls on the Friday before this, I'll have to play it by ear. This extraction is super important since it's been infected and will cure a lot of my ailments I've dealt with.

    But, I haven't called to schedule yet (They told me to wait a week after this one, then call them) so there's a chance there wont be an appt for me for quite a while (or I have to do massive shifting of schedule)

    If it works, I will be there. I wanna meet the Schonz again!

    This is a lot of work to put together by the Blazers. Low turnout will most likely result in something like this never happening again. El Prez is flying up here from LA to come. What's your excuse not to go? A chance to meet to Blazer broadcasting legends, see this year's team for free and meet people you've been arguing with for years.

    Seriously, its Bill Schonley and Mike Rice. Both of those guys are getting up in years and were the voice of the Blazers for me growing up and I guarantee if you miss it, you'll regret it as a Blazers fan. I met Schonz at a Blazer game in LA a few years ago, very brief but it was one of the best Blazers memories I've personally ever had. It was great and regretted not getting a pic with him.

    Plus free game tickets?

    I committed right away because I thought the tickets would be snatched up with the quickness but to not even get halfway there is pretty embarrassing. I mean how many of those people who lined up for Fan Fest would kill to be able to meet these guys up close.

    I gave you my reasoning. I'll be there if I can medically tolerate it. Hell, there's a chance I may not even have the surgery on the Friday before this.

    Please understand that there are circumstances that prevent people from coming or things that come up that need to be attended to that affect our lives... I tried to give as much warning as I could out of respect of the process and hard work that came from this to put it together.

    I dunno, I feel kind of guilted, to be honest. I doubt that was the intention, and I realize i'm internalizing and personalizing it, but that's how I feel.

    We could always go to Casa Diablo at 3 and find more "message board posters" willing to come

    I think that will be more me holding a small sage bundle kind of in the distance from the moda center and uploading it to instagram. I don't want to be another Stand with Ahmed situation happening.

    I think this could be the start of a great Portland-based healthcare plan.
