I wish I could be there
but I’m going to a friend’s memorial. The first guy I knew to be murdered.
And by his wife. I don’t think that asking for the Giants game to be on would be a good idea.
Go Sanchez!

The memorial was amazing.
Jimmy Baum was a great drummer and great musician. There were tears, laughter, and lots of great music. I played the great standard ‘For All We Know’.
I believe Jimmy was a Giants fan.

Helping a friend move mañana, will miss game entirely. :(
Thanks for organizing these meet-ups, Goofus. I’ll make it to one of them someday. In the meantime…the last McC get-together resulted in a huge win for the Giants. I expect no less from you guys tomorrow.
They could be Giants...but not really.
you need to prioritize

The only way I’ll be able to make an appearance is if TBS shows me on camera. In which case I expect to be suitably applauded.

You can go into Mijita and then sneak through.

There’s no age limit; they’re both restaurants.
Worth noting, however, that sneaking in through Mijita won’t work if you’re trying to avoid the Public House line. We tried that last night.

You can get in if under 21. You probably just can’t go to the bar area.
Maybe just wear a Beard of Zeus and no one will question.

If Graham is 18 and looks like what Rod Beck looked like at 18 (he said he looked much older), he could go to the bar area.

My cousin sent me a fake ID for my birthday!
It says im 24. And its expired. And its not actually me, just some kid who vaguely looks like me.

The fabric store lady asked me if I was making a nice pumpkin costume for halloween.
No way, lady, I’m makin’ RAGS!!!!

Unfortunately I'll be here in Nevada City, screaming at the television because I know that Bochy will hear me.

I'm in this thing.
I haven’t posted on MCC much lately but I need to attend one of these things.
I’ll be the 6’6" guy if we need a bouncer.
6'4" though kinda lanky here (no bouncer services promised nor recommended)
I’m at 90% probability.
I often watch at a different SF bar, but after last night’s emotional beating I definitely want to be surrounded completely by those who know my pain.
They also have lots of really nice HD tvs there.
Let’s Go Giants – I’ll have a road jersey and an orange hat with a Miller pin.

May need to keep the autograph seekers away from Grant, if he shows up and Goofus.

age limit?
do you have to be over 21 or eat or buy food?or is it free for all and you can go in even if your 6 years old?
It's a restaurant, like any other.
All ages are welcome.

Waiting to see so put me as a maybe.
Waiting for my friend to get off work to see. So maybe +1
There is nothing wrong with me cheering for players that are former players for my teams. Unless they become a Viking.

Nevermind. I'm out.
Have no one to go with. I really wanted to.

Slightly off topic:
is there a longer term “what if” schedule? Turns out the mrs. and I will be in SF on 10/23, and if the Giants are still in it, we were thinking about hitting the Public House for a game if there is one. Where do I find this info, and possibly a few McCoven in the process?
Better to be a Giants fan than an Athletic supporter!
Alas, my "maybe" has become a "no"
We spent the day in SF today running Kitspool Jr. ragged, and he’s still fussy after Posey’s double play ball from Friday. So I’ll be unavailable to make another trip in from the East Bay.
Have fun, McCoven, show your spirit and snark, and go Giants! I will be cheering them on and pulling out what’s left of my hair from the comforts of home.

I can't remember the last time I posted here
despite reading nearly every post Grant puts up. But I miss it. Count me as a ‘maybe’ in a gray Wilson All-Star jersey and I’ll do my bestest.
danng
i am a maybe now.but i will try my best!!
I wish I could go...
but I’ll be listening on the radio while at a 49er tailgate party.
Go Giants!!! Go Niners!!!

You guys need to do an offseason meetup
Mostly because I want to meet some of youse clownshoes and it’s killing me that I’m overseas.
meet up..by chance
great meeting some of you there. merkin had no idea since he’s been busy. once we were there i saw the mcc sign and went, what about sitting with them? so it was torture and then a happy ending.
GO GIANTS!
I think someone should sponsor Brooks Conrad for MVP!
I will heckle you until you crack. If you're an umpire and get the call wrong be prepared for a voice that will echo in your ears.
Hi Mrs Merkin
Yeah, that was cool
We just happened to be there
Monkey saw the sign, then I saw Mr and Mrs G and a fun time was had by all =)
Thanks again for letting us join y’all
