Goose and his #2 Draft Choice

This post will cover the events of last night. Leading up to the most amazing news of all...A new Lodge member. But the story needs a little Build up. Not a ton of pictures but good times.



Tuesday. 6:20pm
Goose finds out he will be getting 4 passes to a special screening of Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, due to Sprint whorish NASCAR sponsership.
He calls Train. (IN) Dude (IN) Jimbo (OUT...Due to the need to spend quality time with Mrs Jimbo, That Gentlemen is how you stay married) anbd Finally 2.0 (OUT..."I have other plans...wait....no Im IN)

Wednesday 7:15am Dude calls to get details. NOTE: WAAAY too Early to talk

Wednesday 5:55pm. Goose tours Trains new Apartment when Dude calls from the Lobby. "We'll meet you downstairs". Goose doesnt know this at the time but Train is hiding his apartment from Dude. Rumor has it he is hording Star Wars Figures and Believes Dude might steal them.

6:30 Goose calls Joe. Tonight is a free pass night for corporate sponsers of Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby and as you can guess they must be expecting a large crowd.

6:45. Joe pulls up in a Non 2.0 licenced vehicle. "Im borrowing my parents car. They are in Vietnam" (Many Braddock/MIA/Rambo Jokes made at this time)

6:55am. Movie is about to start. There are 15 people in the theater for this special screening. 15!!!. And figure we are 4 of them. Even the seats reserverd for "Special Guests" remain empty. We grow wearly of the slideshow and Matt Damon saying "I could grow old with Ben"

7pm-9m. Events are held classified under Lodge Rule 413 Section 8 "The Dude/2.0 30 day rule"

So.......now it time for the "Parking Lot"

So after the movie and a hearty meal at Burgermaster, where Goose sat in the seat "Reserved for Marty", Train delibratly upended his French Fries to a) Keep Dude from eating them and B) He was protesting them forgetting to give him onion rings. Also an extremely intoxicated man let everyone in the place know that they had THE best Tarter Sauce anywhere. Let me tell you that this was indeed Not True. But we let "Saucy" ramble on regardless

It was them learned in the Parking lot of the theater that Al and Peggy Elenbaas were indeed in Vietnam with the owners of a Vietnamese Restaurant and that they are adopting a Vietnamese Child (Or possibly full grown Vietnamese Midget).

I figured what better way of indroducing Joes new Brother that giving him his place in the Halls of the Sacred Lodge.

Gentlemen, I give you the 11th member of the Lodge and a special Supplemental Draft Pick of Goose....

The last line of the night may go down as an all time classic. The Dude quoting Ricky Bobbys young sons (I dont remember which one said it...Walker or Texas Ranger) yells out "I will kick your Ass OLD MAN!!!" Right as a nice elderly Gentlean walks behind him, innocently trying to get to his car so that he could get home to watch the last 20 minutes of "One Tree Hill".

I laughed so hard my sides hurt.
