ChopCountry Cooperstown Invasion, July 27th, 2014.

[The Chosen One]

I've been PM'ing back and forth with some of you. Well the time is approaching, we are now less than a week before the Hall of Fame Weekend.

The details:
No restaurant picked yet, and I'm not sure if it'll be in Albany (where most people are hoteling) or Cooperstown.
Firstly, need to confirm the amount of heads first so I can pick out a place and make reservations. So far I have 4-5 confirmed for dinner.

Please post here if you will be able to make it to the dinner and how many you'll be bringing (spouse/significant other/child), and you can PM me so we can exchange e-mails/cell phones to text as the weekend approaches.

I know some of you had planned on going but won't be able to from the other chop country thread.

Hopefully we can eat in the same restaurant as Chipper, so I can explain to him my childhood obsession and finally ask him why he never took heed to my advice on his two-handed swing.

Confirmed here. Not bringing a guest. Commuting down the NYS Thruway after breakfast on Saturday, and going through the museum.

Will keep to my suggestion for dinner at a restaurant in Albany. With most of us are lodging there, and more establishments to choose from, it just makes more sense. Nobody would want to have to drive 45 minutes back from Cooperstown in the evening.

Will be ready to prep for induction ceremony after breakfast on Sunday morning.

[The Chosen One]

So far we have 4 confirmed.

Jeff you better get some photos man. Can't wait to see your awesome weekend.

Also try and get a Chop Country group picture.

[Knucksie]

Yeah, let's try and get this settled by tomorrow or Friday at the latest. We've already discussed a good eating/drinking establishment in Albany.

[The Chosen One]

DEADLINE IS TODAY. (Well not really but Knucks and I would like a full count by the end of the day to reserve by tomorrow).

[Knucksie]

You can get good Italian anywhere. You should be going for chowder & lobster!

[The Chosen One]

Fun night so far. Got into Cooperstown slightly late. Just had a few drinks with goldfly. Lol.

Missed knucksie. I'm camping out in the field At 8am. They're expecting close to 60k fans tomorrow so I want good seats.

I hope you guys have a great time tomorrow. I had really wanted to take this trip and possibly with my parents and brother, but unfortunately life happens. I just have to live vicariously through you.

[Krgrecw]

You guys run into John Rocker and Klesko? Rocker was raffling a night out drinking with him for $5. You guys should go for that.

[The Chosen One]

Saw the booths they were at. Same store I got the Lockhart stuff. Waa weird walking in and seeing all this klesko memorabilia and Rocker too.

[The Chosen One]

I saw a fan with a Nationals jersey and A Braves hat. I think I just spotted gilesfan.

Sorry for the upload angle.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Hope you guys are having a great time up there. Hear that Braves Country has basically taken over Cooperstown.

Did Mad Dog really reference lighting farts with his brother in his Hall of Fame speech? Haha!
