Draft day party

[kytitansfan1]

Any word on any special happenings that day? Yvette had suggested a gathering at USA Sports Bar in Mt. Juliet if nothing else is going on. I had a great time last year at Johnathans.

[MillaKilla8]

I live in Oregon. :mad:

[Yvette]

I keep checking the Titans main page for an update but nada. I really hope KVB does it again because it was a blast!

[barnybyrd]

I have already taken that Saturday off from work. They laughed when I told them why.

[kytitansfan1]

I live in Oregon. :mad:

Road trip! :thumbsup

[MillaKilla8]

Road trip! :thumbsup

Ahh now that would be fun...I gotta keep spending low right now though.

[JCBRAVE]

This bites living in Connecticut being a Titans fan. I should move back down to Tennessee so we can party.

[Sect309Fan]

Do you guys really get a lot out of a draft party? I just can't imagine staying at one for an entire day, waiting hours for the Titans to announce their pick. I could understand it in 2005 and 2006 when the Titans drafted fairly early, but not at #30. Plus, there are only two rounds on the first day now.

I love almost anything Titans related, but I doubt I will ever attend a draft party.

[Yvette]

I always have a blast. It's kind of cool seeing who the other teams pick and just hanging out with friends. Never paid attention though, before we got the Titans.

[Tam]

I had a blast last year! :)

[TTP77]

I had a blast too! I checked KVB's website last night and there was nothing posted but last year's event is listed as "First Annual" so maybe he'll do it again. :)

[JimOkc]

Pictures? :D

[Tam]

Pictures? :D

There were lots taken. I've got some somewhere, I'll have to see if I can find them. :)

[kytitansfan1]

Ask, Jim, and you shall receive...a few pics from last tears draft party/KVB Foundation kick-off.

The moment CJ was announced as the Titans first pick.

Those pictures remind me of something.... is bucket here??????? We NEED him.

[bucket]

I really enjoyed the one last year but will probably have to miss this one. My wife is having rotator cuff surgery on the 14th and I'll be her home healthcare nurse for awhile.

[Yvette]

That bites, bucket! Send her my best wishes and they go to you, too!

[Count Telecky]

The only problem with a draft party is all the draft beer that I could potentially consume before the Titans get to their pick.:toast

Actually that may not be a problem. I could always find out who we picked on Sunday.

[pookha]

I know you will perform admirably.

Our hope for a speedy recovery goes without saying...

[pookha]

if titans radio is going to be involved the news will might be posted here.

[Tam]

bucket, I hope your wife's surgery goes well. :)

[SwissTitansFan]

I'm crossin' my fingers and hope we'll be by then be back in Tennessee....

[Mike McFan]

Sorry to hear Bucket ! Hope all goes well.
Will she be able to pitch again ?

[TitanPop]

Here's to a successful surgery and quick recovery.

If KVB doesn't have one, where are we going? We need a backup plan.

Titans Radio is covering Mrs. Bucket's surgery? :lol

[HALL45ROX]

I had a great time last year and intend to be there again (tee ball schedule allowing, yep just checked game that week is at 11:30 and the Titans pick late) I got to meet KVB, Rob Bironas, and Casey Kreamer last year and plus like I need an excuse to drink in a bar with my friends.

[Yvette]

I keep checking every day and nada. This is starting to annoy me... I mean throw me a bone, give me something Titans related to look forward to :lol

[Tam]

I won't make it this year. :sad I'll be in Talladega. I don't know why they have to make them on the same weekend. Darn!

[Conan Oh Brian]

I shot out an email asking about this and got back "In the works".

The bad economy has made it extra difficult on everyone involved with events like this and while sponsorship is in the works for the draft party, nothing is final as of yet. It will be posted on Titans Radio's website the second anything is in stone.

Well...unfortunatly it looks like I can't make it back to Nashville till Draft day...The Immigration services just send me a "Welcome To The USA"-letter and wrote me in it, it's gone take at least 30 days till I'll get all my papers from them...

DAMN.....!!!

[Yvette]

Well damn. And Tammy too. Both of you let us know if you want anything signed?

[LiamVengeance]

I live in Oregon. :mad:

I Live in England :mad:

[Tam]

Well damn. And Tammy too. Both of you let us know if you want anything signed?

Anything you could get signed would be great by me!! Thanks Y! :)

[Mike McFan]

I'll say i'll be there when we all know I won't !:lol

[TitanPop]

Yep, your never all there.......... :crazy :lolhit :doh

Who schedules a wedding on draft weekend.




My sister.

[shadowboxin']

Somebody should be getting coal for their wedding gift.

[utkjoe]

Who schedules a wedding on draft weekend.




My sister.

Its a test. My sister scheduled her wedding the same weekend Ole Miss was playing in a bowl game (and you know they don't do that very often), just to see if her fiance would ignore it and focus on her. I tried to convince him to go to the game instead of the wedding, but he went through with it.

Some women are just mean.

i would of left that girl waiting at the alter

besides, wouldnt tailgating be the best wedding reception ever?

[Yvette]

Damn that's cold. It's THEIR wedding and what about focusing on HIM too?!

I like the tailgate wedding reception idea :D

[TMJ66]

look for me ,i'm going this year in person ,don't worry i wont be hard to find i'll probably be the only one showing the Titans' colors and flashing the Titans' tattoos

Hmmmm...When my g/f was scheduling our wedding in 2007, she decided that a wedding from late August on was off the table because she didn't want me to miss any of my Nebraska games.

That was great scheduling and it's too bad that she couldn't have scheduled her surgery to make the tailgate.

[TitanPop]

Well any news yet? I say lets get this party started.

[travis13]

I love the look on me and my friends face in that pic. We were disgusted when the Titans picked CJ. I love being wrong. I really hope there is another draft party this year.

You have to give her kudos though for knowing it was safe to schedule during bowl season. :thumbsup

[TitanPop]

9 days

[TTP77]

Looks like we need a back up plan. Nothing yet from KVB on his draft party.

[315]

USA Bar and Grill. Be there or be square ?????

[travis13]

Where is USA bar and grill?

[315]

Mt Juliet.... I-40 and mt juliet road, across the street from Providence.

[kytitansfan1]

That's the place where I first met some of you fine folks, and Zonian , too.:lol

Good food. I really hope to be there.

[L T]

I hope to make it this year. I've only missed what? The last 4? :peepwall::laugh

[TMJ66]

look LT is back !!!!!!

[barnybyrd]

Hey LT, good to see you.

[pookha]

good to see you lady titan.
:)

yeah this late it looks like possibly due to the the late start of the draft
and especially the titans picking so late there isnt going to be a draft party.

[Rolltide14TOMB]

well since my final exams will finally be over...saturday will consist of 8:00-12:30 golf and then 1. to the beer store 2. something good to eat 3. straight to the couch 4. Consume beer and watch draft:toast

[zonian]

Mt Juliet.... I-40 and mt juliet road, across the street from Providence.

zonian and ms_zonian plan on attending...

[TTP77]

What time do we get the show on the road? Maybe we should try and reserve a few tables if possible?

[315]

I dont know if they will reserve tables... but I dont think there will be a huge draft following there. (Besides Us !!) I dont think we will have a problem getting an area where we can all be together.

What time does the draft start? I can get there early as needed.

[zonian]

Starts at 3 pm Central as far as I know...

They're trying to get it into Prime Time this year.

[TTP77]

It will probably be around 2:00 before I can get there but IDK yet. I'm still shooting to try and run the half marathon on Saturday but if I don't make the run then I can get there a bit earlier.

[315]

Would you all be interested in sitting in the back with pool tables and dart boards.... with plenty of TVs ??

[zonian]

Would you all be interested in sitting in the back with pool tables and dart boards.... with plenty of TVs ??

Sounds good to us...

[kytitansfan1]

Could we ask that the darts be put away when the Titans 1st pick is announced? :huh

[TitanPop]

Would you all be interested in sitting in the back with pool tables and dart boards.... with plenty of TVs ??

That will be just fine, and let me know when you are going to be there, i will meet you there and we can get things set up if need be.

[TTP77]

Would you all be interested in sitting in the back with pool tables and dart boards.... with plenty of TVs ??

Yep! :thumbsup

[315]

I will go there today and tell USA to be expecting us.

[don28]

I will go there today and tell USA to be expecting us.

I'll be able to attend this year's draft party. Lisa will be working, so I'll be going solo.

[Yvette]

Well then, looks like I'm going to have to make an effort to see Lisa soon! She's worth it :)

[Orca]

Orca wont be able to swim by, but he will attend in spirit...

[315]

Well then, looks like I'm going to have to make an effort to see Lisa soon! She's worth it :)

Please let me know when you do that... I have a box I would like you to deliver.

[zonian]

Please let me know when you do that... I have a box I would like you to deliver.

Does it have holes in it so the kitty can breath?

[kytitansfan1]

Does it have holes in it so the kitty can breath?

Will green jello and cat food be included?

[Mike McFan]

I'll say that Tammy and I will be there so we can once again not show up !:slap

[Jones31]

I figure I'm never going to make one of these.

[don28]

No gifts will be accepted, 315! :slap

Looking forward to seeing y'all again!

[Count Telecky]

I wish Mt Juliet was closer to Bellevue. With the wife still getting over her surguries, I will probably need to stay a bit closer to home.

I'll do it, if it is a Red Jersey.

Are we doing this or Mt. Juliet?

[Yvette]

I'm game for Cool Springs, but I have to admit I got real comfy with the idea of being close to home in Mt. Juliet.

[Rolltide14TOMB]

oh how i HOPE we shock the world and wear red on Christmas this year...that would be the ULTIMATE IRONY

[pookha]

is either place smoke free.

[Bobcat]

Well, my surprise appearance fell through. Had my ticket and place to stay all lined up but a few other things fell through, so I guess I won't be making it this year. Damn, I was really hoping to shock the hell out of a few people, too...

If anyone happens to come across anything Titans-esque that would be easy to ship, keep me in mind. I can pay for shipping.

[315]

Ok... where are we going. I would rather go to USA.... but I will go with the flow.

[zonian]

I too would prefer the USA gig...

[TTP77]

I'm with the crowd as well. It sounds like USA has more to do plus KVB isn't even going to show until around 6:00 p.m.

[Yvette]

pooks, I'm guessing the hotel is smoke free. USA isn't but they have great ventilation and fans running all the time. I've never come out of there smelling like smoke (that's how I measure air quality in a bar lol). I think it's because the ceiling is the roof.

KVB: The press release didn't mention other Titans being there, either :sad

Count me in for USA.

[don28]

U-S-A, U-S-A, U-S-A! :cheers

[ms_zonian]

U-S-A, U-S-A, U-S-A! :cheers

I'm all for USA!!!

[315]

USA... no give backs.

[TitanPop]

I talked to Vickie a few hours ago, she said KVB "may" have a couple of his buds with him but no names were given out, she also said they still had plenty of the VIP dinners. I told her I had no problem with the money just the location (so far from home) and the color of the jersey (blue). She laughed when I asked for a Red one, but also said it may be worked out. I said "Yeh right", lol having said all of that......... USA SB is where I will be, I may send a check for the kids any way but, being a late draft (time wise), and me being so far from there........ USA SB just makes more sense for me.

[barnybyrd]

I vote for USA

[315]

No gifts will be accepted, 315! :slap

Looking forward to seeing y'all again!

Dang.... married life has made you a little touchy.:thumbsup

[HALL45ROX]

I hate to tell you all but I am going to have to change my answer, my health has suffered over the last month (I have a lingering infection) and while I feel okay and am not in any sort of emergency. I am just going to have to be with you in spirit instead of in person. However, if I get to feeling better I will make a concerted effort to be there.

[315]

Hope you get to feeling better Dave... we will miss ya.

[kytitansfan1]

I found out Monday that my son's baseball team is hosting a tournament on Sat. I'm still hoping to make it to USA.

[Mike McFan]

I'll be there.
No I won't.:huh

[TitanPop]

I'll be there.
No I won't.:huh

Yes you won't......... :lolhit ...... no you will ....... no you won't ......... yes you will ...... :slap

[315]

Ok... It starts at 3:00 correct ??? What time are folks planning on being there ??

[don28]

Ok... It starts at 3:00 correct ??? What time are folks planning on being there ??

I figured that somewhere between 2-2:30 pm would be good. Are they expecting many people for the draft? How many of us are going?

[315]

There might be few people there... but necassarily for the draft.

[zonian]

Ok... It starts at 3:00 correct ??? What time are folks planning on being there ??

Look for me shortly after 2:00 pm.
If you get there before me...call.

[Yvette]

The sun just hit my deck... I'll be there after I wake up but before the draft starts :cool:

*edit*

I think Bob and a friend are joining us too.

[TitanPop]

See y'all in about 2 hours, heading back out on the Harley........... go Titans!!!

Oh yeh, somebody bring the draft analysis of the top 100 players (school, height, weight, 40 time, etc.) .......... PLEASE!

THANKS.

I had already planned on bringing the Pro Football Draft Guide '09. Looking at the mock draft, there have been a lot of changes since the magazine went to press as far as projections.

[RallyRedBmore]

wish i could come :( sniffle... toast a beer for me!

[barnybyrd]

Around 2:30

[TTP77]

It will probably be around 3:00 before I get there. TitanPop, I'll bring my draft stuff.

[Fairweather Fan]

I have to work. I can't even crack open a cold one in celebration until 10:30 tonight! Please drink 7 or 8 beers for fairweather! :toast

[Fausto]

See you all shortly...

[Yvette]

Was great seeing you all and glad you found us Fausto!

By the way, wish everyone could have seen us when they announced our #1.... we were literally speechless for about 1.5 seconds. It was the ultimate delayed reaction and Hollywood couldn't have scripted or directed it better.

[barnybyrd]

Had fun everyone.. If they hadn't been showing Wells the whole time we were on the clock, we wouldn't have been so slow. Although when it sunk in, high fives all around.

[pookha]

i went over with a friend for a little while to the crow's nest .
they were hosing a mcnair charity event for book em.
what was funny they kept on trying to give back change to me and my friend and we kept on telling him to keep it as a donation.

it is smoke free inside which at the moment is a plus with me.

i got to thank mcnair and then we left and spent most of the draft at my friends house.

sorry i missed you all but i am having huge issues with my asthma and allergies right now.

[315]

I had fun... almost too much fun. It was great to see everyone !!!

[TTP77]

I had a great time too! :)

[TitanPop]

Good to see all once again, David and I said we need to have the draft party as a cook out next time, or tailgate at the stadium. Just the TV part would have to be solved. Yesterday would of been a great day to have an outside draft party.

Loved the picks and am waiting for our next one as I sit here typing ..... pick 75 on the clock.... Dallas and everyone is booing again haha!

[zonian]

I had a good time as well.
Great to see all you guys and gals again!

[don28]

Had a great time yesterday. I'll never forget the looks on all of our faces when we thought the Titans were going to draft Chris Wells. I think we would have torn apart the USA Sports Bar! :lol

It was great to see everyone again! Looking forward to the first home preseason game!
