When Kleeb turns 21, let's take him to Chucky Cheese and get him drunk

[JVS]

I've always thought that playing skee-ball while ripped would be cool

[txwhitedove]

1. Yeah, the noise, the kids, the noise.....

sounds like fun, but wouldn't you rather go to the Olive Garden?

[JohnKleeb]

2. There's no skeeball there though

nor beloved oversized rats .

[JVS]

4. I wonder if any drunk women have flashed the animatronic band

that would be cool

[Radical Activist]

5. I saw that band at my county fair

I guess someone bought it second hand and converted it to their own traveling band. I'm pretty sure a drunk woman from a rural part of the county did flash it that week.

[JVS]

6. What county fair is that, I want to go to the good ones this summer

[Radical Activist]

9. It was last weekend.

But you should go to the IL State Fair for sure.

[JVS]

11. Was it Sangamon Co?

I heard that they were doing demolition derby on the 18th

Hopefully the animatronic band will be in Champaign Co.

[Radical Activist]

12. Yes

[JVS]

14. Damn it! I should have gone!

[Radical Activist]

32. It was fun

when I was 14, but anymore I kind of wonder why I went.

[JVS]

34. You go so that you can tell stories about dumb shit you saw go down

such as women flashing the puppet band.

I've been looking at the state fair website and I'm intimidated. What shit do you go to and what is covered by admission and what costs extra? I'm new to the fair thing, not being from the midwest

[Radical Activist]

36. You've never been?

Man. I think I've missed the Illinois State Fair only twice in my life when I was living in another time zone. Even then I made it home for the fair a couple years when I was living elsewhere.

There's lots of good food that's bad for you. Livestock, exhibits, rides, competitions, horse shows, horse racing, concerts (although I'm not crazy about the line-up this year), and just all kinds of crap to see. Go on Governor's Day if you can. There's a huge rally and almost every major elected Democrat in the state shows up. Be sure to see the butter cow and go to Conservation World.

[JVS]

37. Nope never been. Last year was my first summer here and I missed it.

I've only been to the Cham. Co. fair and that was pretty cool

[Radical Activist]

38. It will be a little like the county fair

but twenty times as big. Its a blast and Governor's (Democrat) Day is a great chance to talk to any Democrat in the state you want to meet.

This reminds me of the State Fair in '04. The big Democratic rally was right after the National Democratic Convention and Obama spoke. All the Durbin and Obama staffers had these special shirts that said "Durbin/Obama a new team for Illinois - Illinois State Fair 2004" I've still got a button that says that. Obama had just hit the wave following his convention speech and people were going apeshit. It was like U2, the Rolling Stones and Pearl Jam had all shown up at once. That was a great rally. I'm sure he'll be there again this year.

[JVS]

3. He'll be so fitshaced that he'll be the one annoying the families, not...

the other way around

[TrogL]

7. Have you considered Olive Garden?

Flashing the band there would be much more surreal.

[JVS]

8. Especially since the band is a recording of Dean Martin

[JVS]

10. That's where we're going for his upcoming bday, 21 is a few years off

[JohnKleeb]

13. Makes you wonder though

If it's gonna be Olive Garden for 19 and Chuck E Cheese for 21. What to do for 20.

[JVS]

15. We go get chicken wings

[JohnKleeb]

16. Where at though? Hooters?

[JVS]

17. Is your 20th on a tuesday, if so we go to BW3 or Quaker Steak and Lube

[JohnKleeb]

19. Why yes, yes it is

[JVS]

26. Quaker Steak and Lube has all you can eat wings on tuesday nights!

Get your ass to pittsburgh for that, they're good

[JohnKleeb]

28. I may be going to Pittsburgh sometime this summer

as a matter of fact to look at the university as a transfer spot, visit my grandfather's childhood home, and some other stuff.

[JVS]

31. From what I hear Pittsburgh is Getting a Hofbrauhaus in 2007, so...

you should definitley go to college there. :-)

[JohnKleeb]

33. I should be transfered by then

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

18. Why wait until he's 21?

Take him to Canada and stuff him full of poutine.

[JohnKleeb]

20. I still can't legally drink there

Now in Germany, that's another story. Oktoberfest here I come.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

23. Who said anything about legally?

Live a little, son.

[JohnKleeb]

25. True though I haven't drank in a good few months myself

[JVS]

27. We aren't going to have Kleeb get arrested for underage drinking...

at chuck fucking cheeses.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

30. Of course not.

We're going to have Kleeb get arrest for propositioning an officer of the law for prostitution and assaulting an officer.

[JVS]

35. Don't forget the public defecation charge

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

24. Who said anything about legally?

Live a little, son.

[Sanity Claws]

21. No, take him to the Olive Garden

I read this wonderful story earlier today where a man took his new girlfriend with her three children there. Everyone sounded so nice and accommodating to them.

[JohnKleeb]

22. That's for my 19th

[JVS]

29. That's what hospitaliano is all about
