    Most likely down too. Any idea when you'd wanna do it? I feel like with the holidays around the corner maybe you should consider doing it early next year.

    Thanks for the interest guys...I am still trying to work out a date that works for all.
    Having it sooner than later works for me but my main man Ramos wants to set
    up a table too . so I gotta work it out with him too.

    Agreed on this.

    Might I make some recommendations? The Charleston on Bedford is a bit of a shit hole but they give you a free personal pizza pie with every beer you buy. For people who have never been there, or Alligator lounge, I'm shitting you not. Free pizza. And it's really good.

    Another good bar I like is the Abbey. It's usually pretty quiet and they got some movie themes every week/weekend? I dunno, it's a good divey place.

    Unless they've brought it back, the Charleston doesn't do the pizza thing anymore. Used to love that place though. Grab a couple beers and a couple mini pizzas. For a while you could also pay a buck for toppings and whatnot. Last time I walked by though they had transformed the pizza kitchen into a real kitchen with food for sale. Boo

    Woa, really? I think the last time I was there was over the summer for the trivia finals, and they definitely still had pizza. If they don't anymore, what a shame.

    They may have brought it back, but there was definitely a time when it was gone. And it sucked.

    Anyway, if anyone wants to grab a drink in the area before the Nag lottery, my girlfriend and I are definitely down.

    See, this is exactly the kid of stuff I love to hear about. Wish there were more of these great dives around. Free pie + beer (not free of course, but I'll try :twisted: )? I am there!!! Count me in for a meet if I make a visit in the new year.

    Barcade is like a 20 minute walk from CCM, a little pricey, filled with Hipsters, then again we'll be in Brooklyn so what isn't, and if you want a Budweiser it aint going to happen, strictly for beer nerds, but they do have about 30 arcade games from back in the day..

    Games.. http://barcadebrooklyn.com/games-2/

    Eh barcade doesn't live up to the hype. Hipster friends drag me there often. Its usually too packed to get near the arcades.

    The beer selection at barcade is always great but I'm usually a little disappointed by the game selection. I'm a fan of satellite lounge which is literally a block from CCM and has a bunch of pinball machines. Plus its there's always room because who plays pinball (other than me)?

    There are a ton of other places steps away from CCM. Should we nail down a time to pregame?

    The closer the better, as long as its got cold beer, and a place for me to park my fat ass, I'm basically pretty good..

    I second this. This sounds good to me.

    They scheduled the event way later than I was expecting, so I'm down for any time in the evening.

    Man are they really marketing the shit out of this thing.

    At this rate it will be packed at the event. so winning the lottery seems like a far shot for anyone. I'm more stoked for the hang out. let's make it a mini trade fest. Throw some vinyl in our backpacks and have some fun.

    I like the sound of the pinball place. all we need is a time.

    How about 8pm at Satellite Lounge? I forgot to mention they have a $5 shot and a beer combo...
    Here's the address:

    143 Havemeyer St
    (between 1st St & 2nd St)
    Brooklyn, NY 11211

    Look for the dude with the gf playing pinball. Looking forward to meeting those who I haven't met before.
