If you were at D&B's .. you were patrons of the Fountains, were you not?
LOL ... unless there is a sign that limits the time to park there .. which could cause issues with many of the shoppers there ..

My wife/daughter can spend hours there and NOT buy anything (thank goodness) ...

 

Depending on how cranky you are with security, I'd write a nice little note to both the security company and D & B's. The worst they could do would be to ignore it.

 

^ I was thinking of doing that, but whatever. We're not meeting there anymore LOL

Don't get me wrong, The Fountains are nice and all, but they could have a little nicer about it.

 

lol @ fail meet. I was thinking the same thing I just didn't wanna say it. My girl said she's not going to anymore of those. Something about everyone standing in random groups and no one really being very inviting. I feel her though, when you don't know anyone and first pull up and all you get are "who the f*** are you" eyes; especially after driving an hour to get there. Plus it was mad hot and by the time we actually went into D&B over half the people rolled out.

As far as D&B goes it was small and packed but I still had fun. My burger was great and $5 beer from tap wasn't bad. My girl had a margarita and said it was really good. And she's really critical of drinks, so I guess that was good. Sour face at not being able to take advantage of the eat&play deal. I was pretty much played out before I ate. All in all I had fun inside.

@nikez, no problem. I'll be sure to lend another hand next weekend.

 

Well those security guys are just on little man power trips. They don't really have any real power. You should really feel sorry for him or her... (trying to be p.c.)

 

I tried my best to be friendly to everybody

 

I didn't sorry

After a long winter of hibernating the sun decided to bake me and I wasn't ready so I felt like **** trying to find any piece of shade.

Sorry for not being more friendly Juan and everyone.

 

You did fine.

 

The biggest dif between this and the hooters meet was there seemed to be a lol more organization to getting inside. Hooters was ready to support is so when we were ready to go inside there was a large section ready for the large group.
This past weekend that didn't happen. Aside from 2/3 of the people dipping, by the time we went inside it woulda been another hour and change before being able to get space large enough for the 10 of us (3 came in my car alone) so that pretty much broke up the rest of who was left.
I'm just saying...

 

^ Yeah I called, they said they don't usually do reservations on the weekends lol. I said ... :/ Cool place to go and **** but it's just way to small compared to the one in Milpitas. Maybe we should go to the one in Milpitas and meet up with the Bay peoples

 

do it!!

 

yeah this one def needs a do over. bigger venue might work. i didnt realize you tried to get reservation. that totally sucks that they didnt hold it down for us.

 

One thing about the Natomas HOOTERS .. owner/manager of that restaurant is a "car guy". If he knows in advance, and if there is no other promotion going on ... he'll do what he can to accomodate car groups. Big or small.

 

thats awesome. clearly need to do some more hters meets then
