    NYC Informal CrackBerry Meet-Up, Friday, September 26th Details:

    Location: Bounce-Deuce (website: Bounce Deuce Downtown NYC. A unique venue in New York City combining the social atmosphere of an upscale lounge and fine dining, with a full service sports bar.)

    Address:
    103 2nd Avenue (corner of 6th Street)

    Time: Aim to be there between 7 and 8pm

    Capacity: We have a private setup that can accommodate 25 - 35 people.

    RSVP: The more the merrier so come on down, but if you can drop a note on this thread to say that you're coming or shoot me a PM that would be helpful. Whether it's a big turnout or small turnout we're gonna have some fun and party it up, but would be good to have an idea on numbers.

    BIG Thanks to Panos (podcast listener!) for hooking us up with Bounce Deuce for the night.

    Hope to see you all soon!!

    Hey Guys,

    Ok Ok... I know I'm posting this is in the "wrong forum"... I'll mod it myself and move it to the Social Users forum in a bit, but wanted to post it here to get max exposure so even those who don't venture off into the Social forums would get a chance to see it.

    Here's the deal.... I booked a trip to NYC for later this month. Didn't really take any summer holiday time, so I'm gonna visit the Big Apple for a few days to relax and get energized all at once.

    I'm flying out on Wednesday the 24th, coming home on the Sunday. I know we have a ton of visitors/members from the NY area who frequent the site, so thought it might be cool to have an informal meet-up one night. I think Friday the 26th makes the most sense.

    I know Podcast Craig will come out, as well as our forum moderator Adam (azeis), so we at least have the initial makings of a meet-up (hhmmm..how many ppl have to attend for something to qualify as a meet-up?!). It would be awesome if we get a good little group to turn out... could hold an impromptu CrackBerry Olympics and will make for a crazy picture - so many BBs guaranteed to be in one place.

    But that's all I've got right now: No exact time, No exact location.

    Let's use this thread to hammer out the details... so if you're interested in coming out, have any ideas on where to go, things to do, etc., post it below.

    Hope to see you in a few weeks!!

    I'm in NYC as well.


    I think we should find a joint to host the meet-up, some place we cant get drinks and possibly some pizza pies.

    While we discuss our Addictions.

    This sounds like a great area too meet up.

    I'm in NYC as well.

    I'm going to be wearing my CB T-shirt and drilling Kevin as to why this is still not available?

    BTW, I'm in!!!

    This sounds awesome. If this gets enough attention, and I can find a friend to come with me, I wouldn't mind flying out. I have 6 months off school and wanted to travel - this would make for a great first trip.

    I'm thinking something in the evening (early evening) makes sense to start...

    a place where we can all easily meet up, grab some food, chat, chill for a bit, etc.

    then if later on people want to head some place else (club or bar or something) where there's some tunes/bevvies that could be good.

    i think the key to this meet-up is just to keep it totally informal, come and go as you like, and fun. zero stress kind of get together.

    Good idea Kevin!!

    Friday evening...meeting up at a park? Not a good idea...why? Because around the hours that we'll be meeting up I'm going to need some food and some drinks and a dirty hot dog from the frank cart on the corner is not going to cut it for me and many others LOL...so, 2 ideas I have in mind so far are:

    Dallas BBQ's: Good Food and GREAT Drinks
    *Suitable for everyone's pocket/wallet/purse (however you carry the cash or plastic) haha*

    Dave & Buster's: Eat, Drink & Play

    So, check out the links...this should be a fun gathering

    I'll think of more ideas throughout the day
