post-FOSDEM Super Bowl viewing

[Max Spevack]

I'm trying to find out whether the restaurant that had a Super Bowl 
party last year in Brussels still has spaces left for this year, and I'm 
curious to know if there are folks who will be at FOSDEM who have any 
interest in watching the game.

I have to put down a cash deposit to save the seats, which requires me 
to know in advance how many seats we need, since last year they ran out 
and I got lucky to get two seats at the last second.

Frederic has volunteered to bring the cash and allow me to pay him back, 
since he lives in Brussels, but I need to know who might want to watch 
the game.  If we are lucky, we can get 5 seats.  If we are unlucky, we 
will get less.

Details:

FOSDEM ends on Sunday, February 6th in the afternoon.

The Super Bowl is also on Sunday, February 6th.  But it starts just 
after midnight in Brussels, as Sunday turns over to Monday, and lasts 
about 4 hours.

So if you're still in Brussels (most people already have left by then) 
at that time and you care at all about American football and want to 
come watch the game with me, let me know.

Once I hear back from the restaurant as to the spaces that are left, 
I'll send another email.  As I said before, we'll be lucky if we can get 
5 seats.

Hey Max,

I am interested in watching the game!

Can you tell us or at least me how much all of this can cost so we can save
some from our soever money we get in Brussels?!

Thanks,
Gent

Once you get the privilege to watch such a match with an expert, you
want to do that again!

I am totally in :)

Can't wait for Sunday night!

Assuming it all works out and some number of us are able to go, I will 
be pleased to take care of the costs, so don't worry about it.

Let's just hope we can get a reservation!

Hi,

I'd love to attend too, it would be THE occasion to understand the
concepts behind the game.

But I'd attend only if more than 5 seats are available :), that's

n_seats > 5,  and not n_seats <= 5  -> Fairness :)

Thanks Max! Looking forward to meeting you at FOSDEM.

I'm interested in seeing the game, but not at the expense of someone
else being able to watch it.  If we have enough seats, I'll watch.
Otherwise, I'll gladly defer to someone else.

OK, someone *had* to say it: from the others not interested in the game 
even the tiniest bit, who is joining me for a beer at the same time? :p

Hello Everyone,

Greetings. :)

sending red chimay to you all!  :)

I wonder if/how my IRC skills on Monday morning at my bar will be very good for comments
on the game...

Hmmh, may be we could have sort of virtual commentary on the #fedora-ambassadors IRC.  :)

What do you think?  :)

Sending "Super Bowl" positive energy as well as Fedora 14/15 to your computer
now!  :v)

Please have a great day and/or evening! :~)

Thank You
Sincerely

So with tons of thanks to Frederic, we got a reservation for 5 seats for 
the Super Bowl.  Frederic is unable to join us, so I'm just looking at 
the list of people who expressed interest, in the order that they 
responded:

Max
Gent
Pierros
Nihed
Christos
Ilyes
Jared
Bert

I was worried that there might be more interest than there were seats, 
and that seems to be the case.  I'm not going to ask people to step 
aside or give up their spot in the queue.  Perhaps we can all talk it 
over a bit at FOSDEM and see, on Sunday night, who has the most energy 
left, who cares the most about actually watching, etc.

Hi,

for me, there are some trouble in Tunisia this day so I'm not sure that I
will be in fosdem, for this reason, my place is available for other.

I echo Gerold's sentiments.  It certainly provides a strong perspective 
on what is "important" in day to day life.

Nothing but the best wishes for all of our community members in Tunisia, 
and to your families and friends.
