8pm? I believe this draft starts at 6pm. We wouldn't want to cut into MtM's "Peppermint Hippo" time.Greg Ambrosius wrote:Nothing but the best for you folks. What do you want for $10,000 at 8 pm PT?DOUGHBOYS wrote:Will there be Doritos at this draft, Greg?Let me know!! I haven't ordered yet.

Re: Draft Spots For March 23rd NFBC Diamond League
I know that steak and loster tail may be a stretch at the draft table, but all kidding aside, it would be nice to have a well-stocked buffet set up for all of us to hit before and during the draft. No burgers, dogs, and wings on this one, please. Is there is a way we can get menu options for something like this? Obviously beer, soda, and water in abundance is a given. Just my two cents, which given my status with Greg and Tom these days and adjusted for inflation, is worth about a quarter of a penny.Greg Ambrosius wrote:Nothing but the best for you folks.

But come to think of it, why not go all out? What about bottle service at the table, chair massages, and having a manicurist/pedicurist on stand by for the metro-sexual drafters in this group like Fleming and Tyrer who are used to this sort of treatment given their "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" lives away from the NFBC?
