I have to be honest.  I have been to these kinds of things before.  The "go and meet all the people you raid with in WoW meetup."  I was sceptical at first, since some of these that I have been to were so freaking weird that I've left after 5 mins.

 

I can say now that I am very happy I went.  Everyone of these guys are really good guys.  Interesting, entertaining, friendly, IDIOTIC.  

 

We met at Mystic Lake casino, which made for an interesting time.  Here is what I have to say about the evening and everyone I met.

 

I work with FreeFry and Fir3Marshal, so first off thank you @@Fir3Marshal for setting this up, and getting everyone organized and committed, it wouldn't have happened without you.

 

I know who @@Freefry Freeburg is as a person from working with him, but what I didn't know is that he has more luck than anyone I've met as he walked out of the casino with an additional $120, after only spending, what? $40 bucks?  You suck.  I expect some free fries at work today.

 

Who sucks even more is @@Ruggerxi - Who somehow rigged the entire event so that not only he, but his wife as well, both would win $100 during the "$100 every 15 minute give away" that the casino was running.  I mean what are the chances of randomly picking this day, coming to meet everyone, winning $100 and then 2 hours later his wife winning $100?  In all seriousness, he's a really down to earth guy, always smiling and has some great stories to tell.  Yes, 'The Godfather' cares about his family.

 

@@reddog955i is the type of person I could see myself riding shotgun with in an old school hot rod after we just rebuild the engine.  Again a great guy.  We'd probably be driving that hot rod to go meet

 

@@Sweatnbullets for some fishing, boating or anything out doors.  From the photos he showed us, along with the size of a bass he caught, he's apparently very good at hooking the fish.

 

@@YellowSnow Didnt get to talk to him much, but again awesome to see someone come such a long way to meet everyone.  Im sure we'll have another quick laugh once Wildthing posts the group photo where reddogs giving him the bunny ears.

 

@ seems like hes on track.  I give him lots of credit for being the youngest there.  18-19?  Hanging out with a bunch of 30 and 40 years olds.  Has a full time job, seems like he'll do alright.  Although I did find out that he gets lost really easily.  Twice.

 

@@wildthing What a riot.  I could definitely see myself have many more drinks with this guy.  Not in a bad way.  But in a "it would be really fun to shoot some whiskey and see what kind of trouble we could get in to"  He also  taught me that they make a double wallet.  One side full of money and cards.  One side with no money or cards.  Care to guess which side is his?

 

All in all it was a really fun time.  We had no idea so many people lived in Minnesota.  I heard some pretty interesting stories from everyone and some pretty ridiculous stories about clan drama in the past.  

The best part of it all is being able to put a face to the name/voice and realizing these are all real people just like myself, living their lives. Sometimes you forget that in this digital age we live in.  So thanks again everyone for opportunity to meet some great new comrades.

 

~Oddjob

Yeah I finally got even with mistake mystic lake casino and won back some of the money I lost to them when I turned 18.  It was glorious.  Not to mention we almost won the $1,042,000 progressive jackpot on those slot machines...

 

Free Fries all around!

 

Nice meeting all of you fellow Minnesotan idiots.  Definitely an entertaining group of guys!

Lol darkstar kept messaging me on steam last night asking where the meetup was and if I have any of you guys numbers. It was funny, because I'm not used to people messaging me on steam, and I was in battlefield, and kept hearing "DING" and i was like "my computer keeps dinging at me but i dont know why" haha.

 

Then I minimized it and saw poor darkstar had lost his way. lol

 

I wish  I didn't live in the middle of bumfuck nowhere. The closest member to me is Acucats, and he is still 120 miles away.

Well it would help if the site worked for me and put Sweatnbullets number in my phone or asked one of you idiots for your number xD I wouldn't have been lost, well that and telling me where you guys are running off to might help :P. I'd love to do something like this again, maybe have a barbeque or go camping this summer. @@mouselad made me feel abandoned :c lol jk, at least you tried to help, but it all worked out in the end c:
