Bad move, real bad move guys! :disappointed:
How do you consider this actually planning a party? I could have fucking done this myself.
"Hey look, there is a bar." Umm, Mr. Manager, would it be okay if a bunch of people showed up to your place for a party? We're fans of a radio show."
That was the extent of the planning? That must have taken what, all of an hour or two?
You say we didn't offer any suggestions. Why the hell should we have to when you and Ollie and whoever else said it was all taken care of and cool with the management? Now what about people that may have made reservations close by? That completely fucks up their plans as well. You want to take the responsibility for people having to drive back to whereever they made their reservations if they may be drunk?
Fine, you want a suggestion? I agree with sweet angel.
I'm sorry to go off like this fhore. You're a cool guy and I do like ya man, but you and Ollie and whoever else involved in this awesome "planning" really dropped the ball on this one.

No Fhore.
You're the one being an asshole. You fucked up. You did a great job promoting a party that you really didn't get authorized to begin with.
There are tons of bars that would welcome 100+ people coming to drink there for an entire day. If you had mentioned O & A up front, especially considering this was being drummed up everywhere, you would have known from the get go that it was not acceptable there.
As it stands, you have about 2 weeks to fix it.
Good luck.
As far as put up or shut up, I'd put up but I don't know Jersey.
I suggest you reserve a place other than DR quickly so that all the messageboards can be updated quickly as well as the o&a official board. It can be salvaged but your current plan sucks.

Quote:Originally posted by FollowThisLogicThat's where the problem lies my friend. Some of these people think this is a fucking rally. No people it's not a rally, it's a fucking PARTY! We're not going there to promote O&A, we're going to hang with friends and have a good time. Now this good time may be messed up due to poor planning.
It's not about officially being recognized. No one ever gave a crap about that. The problem is that we don't want to get hassled and/or kicked out.

Quote:Originally posted by sweet angelIt's much bigger than Donovan's Reef which after looking at I considered a shithole anyway. Only problem is that's not necessarily close to DR and screws people that may have already made reservations, but that's on your heads, not mine.
What about Jenkinson's in Pt. Pleasant or Martell's Tiki Bar, also in Pt. Pleasant. I may be mistaken, but I believe they have beach access as well.
