Good thread! Have fun tonight.

Wife pics are due.

BTW I’ll be having an Old Fashioned also. I wasn’t planning on it but sounds too good to pass up. Cheers.

I plan on being the first to post wife pic at some point , if Murin beats Sasso tonight it’s happening.

key to the proper old fashion is the Cherries, you have to have the dark cherries from Italy.
 
Drinking- Homemade Sweet Iced Tea

Eating- Thick cut Iowa Chops from Fareway with Twice baked potatoes & bacon wrapped Asparagus.

Wearing- Not Carhartt jeans and my 2021 championship shirt.

With- my son in our mancave while my wife cooks and cleans :cool:
Love Pork chops and I agree on The carhartt front , I won’t be burning them but I won’t be buying them either.
 
Your answer is on Google. I wasn't trying to derail the thread topic. What are your accoutrements for the night?
Well currently I'm wearing carhartt pants and a sweatshirt so I'm wondering if I need to change 😅

Might have to google accoutrements while I'm at it and get back to you.

Edit: Ah, seems carhartt is joining the likes of Dick's Sporting goods.

Let's see, as far as accoutrements for the night:

Probably be in my Spencer Lee PJ's hanging out with my wife and kid until the kid goes to bed, then just the wife (in shorts and a t shirt and a robe, because it's "freezing" in our home)(who knew 68 degrees was freezing?) and I (sorry no pics), creatine mixed with a berry blast Mio for drink, day old brats and chicken for supper. Pretty fancy night.

Cream Soda, Harris Pizza(half Canadian bacon and pepperoni, half sausage and mushroom) medium Whiteys lemon shake with 2 sugar cones blended in, and Kem Daughg hoodie.

Been living off venison and frozen garden veggies for 11 days so figured I was due for a cheat night!

Smylie Bros. (Evanston, IL) Wolcott IPA, plus a Lirac I can’t recall.

White trash tacos so family can share.

Jeans, navy base layer under gray fleece 1/4 - zip, same as I wore to Iowa/NW last Friday

Solo except for the two three minute periods my 8 year old son pops his head downstairs and asks me to hit him with double overs (no joke, and yes he’s seen the VJ and Bo videos to see the real versions)

  • Warming up with an Appletini as I watch the JV match before ours. Switching to Macallan (18) for the Hawks
  • My finger nails
  • Gloves after the first couple of matches
  • The cesspool online
 
Pepsi
Grilled pork chop sandwiches and peppercorn mac & cheese
Iowa wrestling socks, sweatpants, and one of my dozens of Hawkeye Wrestling shirts
Myself. My son is at work and my wife is watching the last few episodes of Yellowstone in the living room

I had ordered my dog a Carhartt dog coat but canceled my order the other day.
 
Theater room will be filled with friends, sons, and grandsons.

I let everyone drink their non-alcoholic beverage of choice. I always drink room temperature water out of the RO faucet.

I'll be wearing a Hawkeye polo and in shorts.

Probably be eating chicken wings dipped in my favorite homemade ranch dressing.

I love it, what’s a creatine berry thing?

Nice , at some point I’m going to need to learn these crazy drinks you guys are having.

I’m down with some of that Peppercorn Mac and I’m a big Yellowstone fan also.
 
Food- Hudsonville caramel tracks ice cream
Drink- Michters old fashion, maybe 2
Clothes- whatever on top of the laundry basket
With- the wife who will probably be wishing she was watching something else for 2 hours
 
Cappy's Special Chicago Style paired with Arcade Crusher from Decorah's TG. OG Iowa Wrestling T-shirt from Ironside apparal. Daughters (no pics) are working and hanging out with friends. Wife is still working but has been told on numberous occasions this week that I am watching wrestling from 7-9. That leaves the dogs. They've got their spots staked out as well.

Is it 7 PM yet?
 
Ooooh that creatine , maybe another conversation cause I have questions.
Many years ago i read of a study that was done that said that wild game (deer, rabbit, turkey, etc.) had 10 times as much creatine in them than did domestically raised livevstock.

Made sense that the pioneers and Indians were such tough guys.

Time to go kick the dogs butt to get this bad taste out of my mouth. Glad it’s time to switch up the drink and the teams!

I was unaware of the Carhartt issue until reading the posts above, and I then did my research. I have had my Mountain Hard Wear winter coat for well over 20 years, and it needs to be replaced. I have never owned any Carhartt clothing, but I appreciate a business that makes decisions that benefits the safety of their customers, as well as the safety of their employees. My next winter coat will definitely be Carhartt, and I am sending an email to their management telling them how much I appreciate their decision making.
I am old enough to remember the strident pushback from smokers and the tobacco industry when smoking bans were implemented. Can you imagine a 3-4 hour airplane ride with 30-50 smokers puffing away!? Perhaps someday we will view the Covid chaos the same way we now see smoking. Until then, Go Hawks!

Okay, that’s enough HR today. Dear God.
