MrEarl Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 (edited) The official Who's Coming to Breakfast in Ames ThreadOK we need a head count. Bill has established that the BCAFers Breakfast will be Saturday morning at 7:00 at the restaurant in the Gateway, the host hotel. Be there promptly at 7:00 because Bill and Rick and possibly others will have to leave at 7:30 to attend the "Volunteer Meeting". As The Old Guy has already reported, last years BCAFers Breakfast was the high point of the show. So I can assure you, YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS THIS ONE. (and I am working on a special treat, but no guarantees) Edited July 12, 2010 by MrEarl (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thriller Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 I'll be there...probably by myself as The Boss and the short people tend to not like getting up in the morning.I'm running out of time as I think through what to bring, but I do have a default backup plan for the gift exchange.

Guest sintid58 Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 I will be there for sure but don't think that she who must be obeyed will. She likes to sleep in, when on vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Old Guy Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 I would like to come to the breakfast, but a 9 hour drive for breakfast is a little much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEarl Posted July 10, 2010 Author Share Posted July 10, 2010 I would like to come to the breakfast, but a 9 hour drive for breakfast is a little much.Fresh Iowa ham, scrambled eggs.....$5.95Milk or Juice.................................$1.09Meeting and watching all the BCAFer's chow down and Mike upchucking it all after Friday nights party................PRICELESSCome on up Joe. Just think, if you don't make this one you won't be able to say you've been to ALL the BCA Nationals since the first. Saying "I've been to all but one BCA Nationals" well, just don't sound right...

g-g-g0 Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Count my friend and new BCA member Larry Johnson and I in! We were both there last year and had a blast! Just a short history lesson and word of caution for those that partake of a nip or two now and then. When I was a student at Iowa State in the early 60's, Campus Town (more affectionately known by the students as Dog Town) was as DRY as a bone. Had to go to down town Ames for a beer and if you wanted a bit of the hard stuff you had to go to a STATE LIQUOR STORE. Naturally, there were none in Ames! You had to go to either Boone or Nevada. I hope that the Ames Women's Temperance Union has lost some of its presence since those GOOD OLD DAYS!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wildcat465 Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 I would like to join in, but I probably need to make sure I have permission from you guys. Not from Derek though, he, for some reason, gives me the impression that he likes me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Stoneberg Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Who needs permission ? Not you, show up, bring as gift if you want to swap and when its time to pay for breakfast, pay your share.We look forward to meeting you no matter what Derek says about you.

MrEarl Posted July 25, 2010 Author Share Posted July 25, 2010 We're gonna need a bigger room. Make sure they have lots of food ready.You may be right, Roy. So far I'm counting 19 BCAFer's plus some spoke of friends and significant others so I think we should count on at least 26. Since some will have to leave at 7:30 I suggest we all try to arrive at no later than 6:45 so it can officially start at 7:00. So here is a LAST CALL YOU ALL!!!
