Would this be considered pathetic?

I actually live in Carmel, so I'm well familiar with Zionsville.

And trust me, it'll be more than one bucket, regardless of how the game goes.

As for the alumni association, they're a good group, just generally tend to get together more for football. Maybe that'll change come tourney time. Iowa State doesn't have a huge following in the Indy area. When I wore my ISU garb down to Super Bowl Village, I got a few "Go Cyclones" but for whatever reason, got a lot more "**** Iowa State"s.

Me, either. I also had no idea what he was talking about.
I didn't click the link, but I assume it makes more sense now.

Apparently because I studied journalism in a well known Agriculture school, I'm contractually obligated to eat meat the rest of my life? They should really let students know that in the orientation. But, I digress, I really have know desire to have this discussion in a thread that has nothing to do with it. If you'd like to continue in the appropriate thread, I'd be just fine doing so.

Sit at the bar and then you will make friends with the bartenders. That's what I do while traveling.

**Senolcyc** · 03-03-2012, 02:00 PM

Go someplace that has an actual bar to sit at. Sitting at the bar has made drinking alone socially acceptable for decades. If you get a table, yeah that's pathetic.

**BleedCycloneRed** · 03-03-2012, 02:33 PM

I have sat alone at the bar at Fox & Hound on more than one occasion for the sole purpose of watching a Cyclone game. They have plenty of TV's so you can also catch some other games during the break, and they have pretty good sandwiches as well. and have always been willing to put the Cyclone game on a TV for me. And there is a F&H in Carmel so grab a seat, sit back and enjoy a Cyclone victory.

(The wondering eyes are looking at the waitresses, same as mine do).

As for boozing by yourself at the bar...I say do it!

Well, the ISU journalism program isn't what it used to be...

No, in all honesty, I've been boozing throughout the day already. I've noticed most of my posts have had spelling errors this afternoon. It's bound to only get worse.

Well, technically, 1,000 Cy credits, but she should be just as good.

Just play along that she is into you. Before you know it you will be into her.

Not pathetic, inspiring.

**atlantacyclone** · 03-03-2012, 04:35 PM

Its only pathetic if you attempt to drive home after drinking the bucket of beers...

So, if I went to the bar, on my own, on a Saturday night, and ordered a bucket of beer and watched the game, would it be pathetic?

Uh, no. That would be considered awesome.
