For the umpteenhundredth time: "I will never drink again"

Ya, that's a tough one to replace. Smithwicks isn't bad at all but I know it's not the same, lacks that 'creaminess' Kilkenny nails so well

Will be my first time... I will report back assuming I live through the night

Brew at the Zoo tonight! https://www.assiniboinepark.ca/events/brew-at-the-zoo 40+ vendors... each with multiple offerings... I will drink 100 samples and/or die trying!

Bummer man! We'll get em tomorrow

This ump isn't biased he just sucks

You're missing out! It's a great time, treat yourself, awesome little ballpark Looks like we gotta beat the umps tonight too

Feels like a sellout crowd to me! Gorgeous night for kicking some ass!

Anyone at/going to the game tonight? Win and we're in! Go Fish!

Boobs, guys, the answer is boobs

Year of the rouge

Yes between the whistles now!!

Yes I understand the desire to get revenge but the smart way to do it is on the score board

Lawler such a weapon

They call that 'touch'

Would love it if it could work, be truly 'coast to coast' but it's just not in the cards after all these years.

Yep that's the one, they closed for good in November 2019, it's a shame but I can hardly blame them. There is one convenience store I pass often, Westhome Foods on Wellington Ave just East of Arlington, they had their windows smashed two or three times this summer before finally installing metal shutters. Many corner stores must lock their doors and force customers to buzz in. Rough out here for people selling chips and cigarettes. Angry health-nuts are surely to blame!

No, William and Isabel but funny enough I googled Pincess and William out of curiosity and of course just got a bunch of pictures of the royals and nothing to do with this topic

https://globalnews.ca/news/6146563/7-eleven-in-winnipegs-core-to-close-citing-surge-in-brazen-thefts/ A five year old article about the 7-11 on Wiliam closing due to a sharp increase of thefts committed by 9 and 10 year olds. Nobody has moved in to the building since, I drive past every day. Just boards over windows of a gutted building. I've accepted that an arsonist will likely burn it down before another business moves in. Makes me sad 😔 imagine not having a sev nearby as a kid. Partially dethawed freezies in a cup will be a poor substitute

Block Party Friday and Saturday night was worth the lost voice on Sunday morning. There were enough Bomber fans in the crowd on Friday night that even right up close to the stage you always knew the score from people calling it out between songs. The replay was up on YouTube by the time I managed to get out of bed on Saturday. No regrets. Never really thought much about Arkells outside the GC halftime show, wow they put on a show. They came down into the crowd a couple times and each time the frontman stopped to sing barely an arms' length away from me. I had to make way for the brass section at one point. Sloan is a band I always tried to get out and see but plans always shifted or events got rained out and it just never happened til yesterday, well worth the wait, they rocked as expected, loved to see them swap instruments mid-act, I'd heard they do that often and wanted to see it. IME always awesome, big fan, what more can I say. Headstones got the crowd body surfing and Hugh Dillon also climbed down into the crowd a few times. At one point while throwing drinks around he nailed the guy right infront of me with a dixie cup of (I'm hoping) water. Great set, great performers, awesome closing act. VIP is great and all but the GA front and centre experience was way more memorable. So long as you can handle all the standing and close quarters, dress appropriately and mix in an occasional water once in a while you're fine. Good times, can't wait to see the lineup for next year!

I didn't think he had 3 full practices prior to the game, looked like a guy that learned the playbook on the plane

For those that are interested, and it is only 1 person so it's hardly representing the entire population, but if you jump to the 6 minute mark you can hear an actual inuit person say we liked the Eskimos, they were our team because they had our name... anecdotal, yes, not fully representative, sure, but not everyone who 'should' be offended was offended. No doubt you can easily find an inuit person that hated the esks name too, but there you go.

Some sarcastic cheers for that single point haha
