We had a great time. Good band, cold brews, Tornado table with a light and a bunch of people in the place.
Probably what I enjoyed most was watching Age (Adrienne McCormack) grow in her foosball skills. She has been learning and applying that knowledge so fast! It's both a pleasure and a pain to play foos with her: the pleasure is watching her develop, the pain is having her brick and shoot you (it was really painful tonight).Now that she's getting good, I would like to take full credit for her being dangerous, but alas, I cannot. She's been sparring with Billy Noland, Kenny Oglesby and who ever else she might have jumped in front of. Anyhow, watch out for that push shot and soon she'll have a roller.
I was talking to one of the league players this week and I guess there is some confusion about the Friday night format. Pickup games are a throwback from the 70's and 80's when there was a foosball table in every bar and a group of locals who knew that nobody could beat them on their own table. There is no entry fee, no sign ups, no compulsory playing, it's just come on in anytime you want, put your quarters on the table and when you turn in up, grab a partner (any body standing around if you didn't bring your own) and play until you lose. You could possibly hold the table all night (but I'm there so that won't happen).
Anyhow, I heard Mike Sames was there a couple of weeks ago when I couldn't make it. From what I hear between he and his friend they won every single game all night. Good going, Mike!!
So bring some quarters, a thirst, your wraps and a couple of friends (if you wish) and stroll on over to the Dubliner in North Phoenix (right off the 51) this week.
Age will brick you too!
