Triangle DUers: Let's all welcome Xchrom to the 'hood! (5/22-23)
Xchrom finally made it here! Yay!

:bounce:

Would you be able to have an evening of merriment at Tyler's at ATC that weekend?

It would be great to see everyone again.

7. We're talking about the weekend before Memorial Day
Just be clear about the date. And it's too late to edit my OP.

I know people probably have plans for the holiday weekend already The weekend before sounded like a good alternative.

10. LOL! Xchrom is a lovely man who just moved here from SF
Tyler's Tap Room is a great beer place which also sells great food. The one we are talking about is At the American Tobacco Warehouse complex across from the Durham Bulls park.

Perhaps the better idea would be to call maybe around 5:30.

31. will this lively group be obvious? I'll try to make it, but I don't know anyone
in the flesh. If I stand in the doorway and look very confused, you'll know it's me.

6:30ish, Tyler's?

32. Some of us usually bring a DU sticker or two to display on the table
I could tell you xchrom is thirteen feet tall with leopard-pattern fluorescent green and hot pink skinspots, but that really wouldn't help you much because it's totally untrue

41. Sorry folks...
...I drove down to ATC and got caught in the game-day traffic snarl, got disgusted and went back home. Took me over 40 minutes...

Anyway, hopefully next time we get together it won't be a game day - or we can meet up at a place not as affected by game day traffic. Sorry!

I thought the weather would keep some of the game traffic away. It did seem more crowded than normal.
