detlef Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 working Actually, running a restaurant on NYE is pretty fun and, as a bonus, you make some nice scratch. People are typically in a very festive mood and, at a point, you just end up getting paid to party. The other good thing is that you're fine to drive when it's time to go home. You're too busy to do more than have a glass or two of champagne and that's spread out over several hours anyway. We're stepping it up this year in terms of the menu. Over the last year we've gotten a bit of a rep for throwing down some pretty cool tasting menus, so we're a bit more on the radar regarding baller New Years options.

loaf Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 My buddy and I are flying down to ATL on the 28th and meeting up with our other buddy...Maybe a lunch at Fogo on Saturday. Don't know if he's having a party or we're hitting the scene on New Year's though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skylive5 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Watch some football, maybe have a drink or two, hit the rack by 9 or so. Same thing I have been doing for the last 20 to 30 years or so, except for 2000 when we actually stayed up 'til midnight. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theeohiostate Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Depends on where the Bucks end up. Cali or Louisiana Hoping for Louisiana, I've never been down there before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_bone65 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Having a 2 year old that doesn't understand Mommy and Daddy don't want to get up early, we probably won't do too much this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Years Eve and St. Patricks Day are for the amateurs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinL Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Same as the past 3 years. I'll be delivering pizzas. It's not as great a night for pizza delivery as it used to be. The best tips come AFTER midnight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darin3 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 (edited) Not sure, and funny this thread should pop up today as the wife asked what we were doing, too. We'll be here in Austin so I'm quite certain we'll find something fun to do. Edit: Hmm... might go and do this... http://www.molotovlounge.com/ Edited November 30, 2007 by darin3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitem0nkey Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 one of my favorite new years was a few year ago, we got this hyatt new years thing, we all had rooms, unlimited drinks and 3 different kind of parties to go to, and food was also included. what a crazy night that was, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirate lookin' at 40 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Depends on where the Bucks end up. Cali or Louisiana Hoping for Louisiana, I've never been down there before. Looks like you got your wish. Been there a couple of times, it's a blast especially when there's a big game. I went for a Dallas game a few years ago, but it was a week before the LSU / Oklahoma national title game. There was already a ton of fans from both schools there making for a great football atmosphere. Be sure to go to Pat O Briens for a great time. Also, I know there is a lot of great food there, but the best burger I ever had was at Port of Call. Had my Vols beat LSU, I was strongly considering making this trip.

We use to head down to Port of Call after classes on Friday. Good stuff and make sure you drink a monsoon. It'll knock you on your butt.

Skippy Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 That is my wife's birthday so we celebrate a birthday and then we have some friends over for the pot banging. We never go out as it is just too crazy of a night but we have done Vegas once and that was pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bier Meister Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 NYE isn't too big of a deal for me. will likely be working..... will be off the 1st two weeks in jan... going to spend 3-5 days in taos, then a week in either beaver creek, telluride, or steamboat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nogohawk Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Me and the Mrs. usually do a nice dinner out (early - before 7 PM) then, if anything, go to the local volunteer fire company/social hall for the rest of the evening. But usually ends up being a quiet evening at home (and sometimes in bed before midnight) The past few years, we've actually woken up again just before midnight to ring the New Year in!

Fatman Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 All you can drnik for $70 at a bar in Chicago. Capacity is 125 and 75 should be high school/college/post-college friends. I will be drunk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimC Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 We'll have another floating neighborhood party. Each house does something different. Last year we handled the karaoke after midnight. Most of us were drunk by then and it was entertaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
