Barhopping, shopping, sightseeing, and softball all sound way more fun than video games... what have we become? :-X

If we were to go out drinking at all, I'd suggest a karaoke bar - gives us something to focus on instead of 'how drunk we're going to get'. I've noticed that the non-drinkers tend to enjoy the evening more if all of us drunkards are at least intentionally making fools of ourselves on a stage instead of in the street.

That said, I don't think I'll be able to come after the con, but I thought I'd throw in the suggestion.

Soccer is the best sport mentioned in this thread and we should do that instead.

I'm up for playing pretty much any sport mentioned, although softball does introduce the issue of gloves.

Well, the question is "How many people have their own baseball mitts?"  We only need enough to support half the players, after all.  We have a few hanging around here (we needed at least 3 since my 2 sisters and myself were playing Base/softball all at the same time), but defnitely not enough.  If you have any, bringing it couldn't hurt, as  would putting your name somewhere on the mitt!

Honestly, not seeing how Dodge Ball would work so well, unless I'm thinking of the wrong kind of Dodge Ball (we're talking about the one that's like the movie, right <_<?)

Soccer is a potential one too...I think we even haev a soccer ball here!

And...Zenny, there's a Bottleking near the Hotel, would that work?

Oh, and Djinn, for the Karaoke thing...we haev Guitar Hero World Tour; there will be plenty of people making fools of themselves, to the point where the game mocks them for doing a horrible job!  Alcohol is not required for that <.<
(I should probably talk myself into playing the game and trying unlock more songs though...)

But oh so much more fun that way!

On a vaguely related note, if those songs aren't unlocked by the time DLC4 is a go go, then I think we have some work to do.

Well, I TRY to talk my sister into playing Career mode when she actually plays, cause she's the one who plays most often, but she's insistant on playing the same 4 songs over and over again (if you must know, she does Beat It, Eye of the Tiger, Living on a Prayer, and occassionally, One I Love)

But yeah, maybe I can get myself to care or something.

Dodgeball has a number of variants. You can play on a field just fine- it's not the optimal arena (A roller hockey rink, in my opinion) but if you have the people who are out act as backstops for loose balls it works just fine.

Neg. School gym basketball court is the optimal form. I much prefer the shooting a basket form of getting your team back in. Teams tend to focus MORE on offense, if it were possible.

Yeah, school gym basketball courts are always good for dodgeball. Although, never played with the basket-in rule... Should try that next time...

I always played the Medic version (can elaborate on this if needed.) Makes games longer, but more interesting, since having three people act as the Medic does and confusing the shit outta people's fun.

Ah, medics.  I remember that.  Haven't done that in ages.  Do need a person to ref, at least, for that.  Assuming I remember it right.

I'm interested in this.  It'd be a day trip from NYC and I have no idea how feasible it'd be, but I've been meaning to go for years.

They don't sell shoes in Australia?

I mean, I need to buy shoes too... but that's because they don't sell shoes in my size in Japan.

I am serious about the shoe shopping.  They sell shoes in Australia.  They don't sell Allen Edmonds in Brisbane to the best of my knowledge though and I know for a fact they have like 3 shops in New York.

http://www.allenedmonds.com/

They are really nice shoes and I have an incredible need to find a comfortable, long lasting, good dress shoe (or two).

Edit - I already have a purse though.

I enjoy shoe shopping.  Allen Edmonds looks like it's only men's shoes, though >_>

Yeah unfortunately they are.  This does not mean we can't make a day of it.

I need some black business shoes, so we should just go to a girls place too. I'm sure NYC lacks those, though~
