TTP Presents Euro 2004 Qualifying Tripleheader

**Regs** · 09-29-2003, 01:33 PM

A preliminary announcement of sorts...

October 11th
Germany vs Iceland @ 8am
Scotland vs Lithuania @ 8am
England vs Turkey @ 10am

See all 3 games for one low price!

No where else in the lower mainland will you be able to see all three for one price.

More details to follow in the coming days... a food and drink bar should be available.

Limited seating so please post your interest here as well as the number of tickets you may want to reserve.

Cheers,

~Regs.

cside17 · 09-29-2003, 01:49 PM

Are you going to tell us where it's showing?

**Regs** · 09-29-2003, 01:52 PM

Once it is 100% confirmed, yes.

Right now, it is looking like the Portugese Club on Commercial in Vancouver.

Sound good?

Cheers,

~Regs.

*BlazeArmy* · 09-29-2003, 01:54 PM

I'm confused. aRE You going to have 2 games on at once???

A preliminary announcement of sorts...

October 11th
Germany vs Iceland @ 8am
Scotland vs Lithuania @ 8am
England vs Turkey @ 10 am

I like it otherwise.

**Regs** · 09-29-2003, 01:58 PM

Yes, there will be 2 games on at once... the Scotland match would be on the big screen and since many Scotland supporters have an interest in the Germany match, that fixture would be on some smaller screens towards the back of the room.

As I said, it's not 100% confirmed but this is what we are attempting to finalise at some point today.

Cheers,

~Regs.

I think my soccer game has been moved from Sat. to Sun at Riverway.

What is this one price you are talking about, this coming from a Scotland Supporter.

One LOW Price I hope. 5 Bucks sounds good to me.

Count me in for one Regs.

lita · 10-01-2003, 09:27 AM

count me in for one, that is if I can drag my sorry but out of bed that early. tc

**Regs** · 10-01-2003, 09:30 AM

There will be a form available later today to "reserve" tickets and such.

This is 100% confirmed now.

$20, one price gets all 3 games.

$11 pitchers
$3.75 pints
$3.25 sleeves
$2.00 glasses

2 breakfast specials will be available and at 11:30 a Portugese Chicken lunch will be available [all for purchase].

The Portugese Club will be closed to members during our time using their club.

For the German supporters, I'm told that you can't see this game anywhere else in the lower mainland.

Cheers,

~Regs.

Why would they be selling glasses if the game is on a Big Screen.

Pints make for the best viewing.

hos may be in, but first whats on tap?

**Regs** · 10-01-2003, 09:48 AM

What does it matter? You'll drink anything!

Not for me Old Reggy, I am asking for our more sophisticated TTPers that don't like the taste of Old Stock.

Maybe they should use some of the takings and splurge on some renovations. Otherwise top notch deal. Can someone spot me a twenty?

That's not really surprising, is it? You know, with the World War's and all......

I like the idea a lot. HOWEVER, is Ireland playing that day? If so, surely more people would watch them over the fcuking square heeds(who no one else will let in to their establishments) against the Lithuanians? Here's hoping for an Ireland match instead of a German match. If Ireland is not playing(too lazy to check right now) then consider this post MOOT, except for the part about no one letting zzz Germans into their establishments.

I made a mistake so please enjoy this photo of Michel Platini.

lita · 10-03-2003, 09:49 AM

sorry reneging on my previous post, can't make. I'll be watching some local talent at S Memorial at 10:30. If possible keep me posted on games showings I prefer to watch Ireland. Have a great weekend.

Well, the event went off pretty well, all things considered

Unfortunately, the German game did not come through as the broadcaster switched things up and did not offer the game

Apologies were made to the few German supporters that showed up (including TTPer number2) and we ended up refunding for 5 of them (2 returned after about 15 minutes to watch the rest of the games

).

We ended up with 88 people in total and I think everyone had a good time... except for the few Turkish supporters in attendance

Quite a few numbnuts tried to get in and haggle part way through the last game, wanting a deal of only $10

We also had a "family" come in who wanted a discount for their kids... the "kids" were 15

Then they wanted receipts for tax purposes

Anyways, thanks to everyone again and I think we are going to do this on a more consistent basis, possibly starting with one or two of the Euro 2004 playoff games coming up on November 15th (I think that's the date).

Cheers,

~Regs.
