Yeah, that's right during the World Cup final. I'll probably be watching somewhere nearby, might try and wander over afterwards if y'all are still around.

World Cup final
yea mr. lfr is using that as an excuse to weasel out or maybe I can convince him to come by later. Any idea how long we'll be at it?

I'm ok with moving the time. What time is it expected to end?

If the game doesn't go over we can easily make the 2:10 B bus from Boulder that arrives at Market St at 2:55. The 2:40 B bus at the latest if it does go into a penalty shootout or something. So as long as you don't mind us potentially being a tad late, starting at 3PM sounds fine. Mr lfr says he'll come if he's allowed to finish watching the game first :)
Anyone else?

Depending on World Cup schedules and my 4 yo's grumpiness I hope to pop along later w/ her. (She has a Tattered Cover book voucher to spend.)

I'm not sure where exactly to meet there, but I'll be wearing this shirt.
I'll post again when we get there.

Tattered Cover is a big place. Be sure to post when you know where in the store you're meeting. That said, I still haven't even left Boulder yet - the WC game is still in regular time and idk if the mister is going to go. I'm going to attempt to be on the 3:10 bus, hopefully you're all still there around 4?

Hey, probably not going to make it. I have a big writing deadline, and didn't get as much done this weekend as I thought. Have fun, everyone!

Hey guys, maybe next time a sign would be good? I just got home from the TC; got there at 3:15, wandered around, didn't see any groups larger than two people, asked the clerks if they'd seen a larger group anywhere, so at 3:45 I got on my bike and came home. I don't have a smartphone. Oh well, I had a nice hot bike ride anyway. katherant wanted me to tell you all she is feeling much better.

Sorry to miss you caryatid. I got there very late, due to WC going to extra time. There was a sign when I arrived but I don't know when that appeared. Great to see / meet you all. LFR -- it's been too long! (Just watching today's TdF - unbelievable.)
