Mon March 4 at 7:30 PM, The Friendly Spot

943 South Alamo Street, San Antonio, TX, USA (Map & Directions)

Are you staying on/near the Riverwalk again? I have been meaning to hit up The Friendly Spot on some weeknight when it's allegedly less crowded but haven't had an excuse yet.

Also Monday 3/4 is the worst night in that range for me.

Yep, staying in more or less the same place.

I am putting my $0.02 in because I might be able to come down from Austin Monday or later (we're out of town over the weekend).

I'm in totally down for this. The 3rd or the 4th are great for me... as that's my weekend. I also get off from work at 23:00... so really... I can rally with all of you good folk should the event go on to the late hours...

The Friendly Spot is quite nice... as are most places in the King Williams District.

Hey, I was just thinking that Austin gets all the meet ups. I'd love to meet some mefites; I'm up for wherever. The friendly spot is pretty sweet, though.

4/4 is sounding like a good date for everyone?
posted by The Whelk at 3:21 PM on February 24, 2013

Solid for me, Sir! Anyone else have suggestions?
posted by PROD_TPSL at 5:31 PM on February 24, 2013

Lets say This Friendly Spot place (woooo open air wooo) on the 4th?

7PM as a holding time for now.

I RSVPed but it'll probably be closer to 7:30 - 8 for me.

I plan to go! I will be driving down from Austin. I will see if I can get an hour off work and make it by 7, if not then it would be more like 7:30 or 8.

I will see you all at 19:00. I look forward to seeing all the smiling faces.

I will be in a MeFi themed shirt, natch.

yeah my fight got moved so 7:30-8 is more the target zone.
posted by The Whelk at 5:42 PM on February 28, 2013

Officially pushed it to 7:30 cause that's a touch more realistic re: when I'll be able to get there.

Okay finishing ablutions and heading out, if you see a guy with a brown bomber jacket and another guy in a stripped blue shirt, come say hi.
posted by The Whelk at 4:45 PM on March 4, 2013

Okay, I'm here and I don't see anybody yet... I'm to the right of the bar on the street side, at a table by myself looking like a dork.

We found marble! We're to the right of the bar

Thanks everyone, I really enjoyed meeting all of you. Definitely worth the drive!

A grand meetup, all around. I'll try and bring more interesting discussion material next time.

It's okay we just all revert to discussing the end-of-the-world-scenarios by habit anyway.
