    Hey Brick

    SBR admin been wondering what has been taking me so long to get back from Superbowl weekend too.

    Planned to be here all the time but my Aussie laptop power supply blew up day one on 110v power and could not get it fixed and recovered enough from the mental amount of air travel until now to get back into it fully.





    Not really 'back' yet btw. Anther 5 days of fun and a day in the air before I am really back home: http://www.sportsbookreview.com/foru...road-trip.html

    4 out 4 people I spoke to said Optional ... when asked who was their favorite person at the bash.

    congrats but don't let it go to your head.



    and btw, wtf is this bullshit in Oz? I looked but I can't still figure out if true or not.

    I was explaining to a few people at the bash that Australia was an awesome place for US people to holiday, maybe best in the world for range of things to see/do that are unique... BUT hardly any of you I know that moved to live here like it much, due to ALL THE RULES and everything being so much more expensive than USA.


    That sign is the perfect example.

    Also don't know if it's real but can easily believe a local council idiot decided they could justify their position with that one.

    If it is real you can be almost certain someone fell over jogging on the council maintained beach foreshore and sued them for head injuries. Amateur insurance law experts in the human services dept would then say, "oh no, now someone can say we knew of the inherent risk and sue us next time for more, so we will put up a sign that falsely gives us security they wont be able to do that". (and all of that logic train is generally incorrect. The council signs stay up though)

    Didn't take a lot of bash pics but here are most of what I did snap.

    Seems like an appropriate thread for late pic posting

    sbr covers 2 nights at the hotel and thats it. if you check out the website thats around 900-1000 dollars for the room plus all of the extras like the meet and greet, super bowl party, poker tournament and dont forget the goody bag of stuff. you would have to pay airfare and any extra nights at the hotel .

    Wow they cover two nights? Im coming FORSURE next year. What's up with having a non Super Bowl weekend though? They would probably get a lot more people if they did it the week after Super Bowl weekend

    You can just let SBR know when you're available and they'll plan the next bash around your schedule.
