IRL Meeting 3 - USA/Canada

By His Lordship on 05/08/2009
I'm travelling all around the USA and Canada with my friends from November 20th to January 5th.

I need to know who amoung you would be interested in meeting up as a clan, and who's of legal drinking age. Now, I will not be meeting you one by one so I have to organise two or three meetings.

One west coast, one east coast, possibly one more in central or Canada. I don't know. First I have to see who'd go.

Each IRL meeting would be a day trip, and would be followed by one evening where you'd join myself and my IRL friends on a night out if you're 21 or up. But you can at least come along in the day.

If you come along I will be selling WG T-Shirts for cheap. Lets say $15 USD since I no longer have to pay for postage. DON'T WEAR A WG T-SHIRT ON THE DAY. If two or more of you are seen wearing one it will look so nerdfest. Seriously, WG T-Shirts are banned.

have fun hash.png

By Dieyou2000 on 05/08/2009
I'm central USA, and I would be interested in doing this.

16 so I am not of legal drinking age here.

Don't know if I would be able to make it or not. Depends on the date and where the meeting would be.

Hope I can make one.

By George on 05/08/2009
Wow... firstly Gene, how the HELL do you have enough money to keep travelling around places! ohmy.gif
Secondly, as you know i'm London, so won't be coming to this.
Thirdly, you sound like a proper tour guide, instructing people on what to wear and such biggrin.gif

By David on 05/08/2009
Come to northern California and I'm game.

Only 18 though...

By For Sooth on 05/08/2009
Well if your coming to USA/Canada why not come to Niagara falls where a) im legal drinking age b)it's an awesome play c)dz would come also.

By Ranma344 on 05/08/2009

And you decide to do all this in the WINTER? YOu won't even get to see all the beautiful national parks because they'll be locked in with snow :<. Nonetheless though I can give you some must do's while you're in the country, as far as national parks go. In the USA that is, Canada idk tongue.gif.

I would like to go, but I wouldn't be bale to :/.

By WG_Aaron on 05/08/2009
im 18 and west coast. southern cali please. im 18 but ill bring some cannibis satvia, im down to chill all night.

By His Lordship on 05/08/2009
Already I've got like 5 different places to do it.
Don't be selfish. Instead, tell me how far you're prepared to go. Would southern cali go to northern cali etc.

By Colinwarrior on 05/08/2009
I would love to do this. I might be in basic training at the time though. Further information as events warrant.


Oh yeah..and I'll be 20...soooo...close enough to the drinking age. If you go to Canada near me (I'm in Michigan, like 15 miles from Canada), I'd for sure hit up some bars with you cuz the drinking age is 19 there hash.png

By His Lordship on 05/08/2009
The more I think about it the more I want to have the east coast one in Canada.

By Quikdrawjoe on 05/08/2009
I'll be interested and I believe Mm would also, depending on the times.
I think we'll both skip the drinking though. hash.png

By David on 05/08/2009
If you did SoCal I doubt I'd be able to make it. I just wouldn't have the time to make it down there with school and all. Unless it's during a break or something like that.

Or do it in San Francisco, I can be there, lawl.

By Angus0000 on 05/08/2009
I doubt that I would be able to make it.

By Gibble00 on 05/08/2009
Lul, I should find a way to Canada with yall, not that I won't have plenty of drinks, still won't be able to go out and drink -.-

By dutch frag on 05/08/2009
do 1 in netherlands u can get weed/alcohol ! LEGAL~!!!! not ILlegal so why not biggrin.gif ? make one in the netherlands pl0x

By Havochaha on 05/08/2009
Come to Atlanta we have got many attractions for tourists.

Coke Factory
CNN
GA Aquariam (most water in the world)
Six Flags
White Water

Jenny lives in Alabama she can drive to atlanta too biggrin.gif

By Mmangler on 05/08/2009
Hell yes, Joe is right. We would love to attend with the only limitation being school or work. I would hope that the IRL would at least straddle a week end because it would reduce the the impact of work or school. Now, have you considered the weather. I have come to the realization that you are well traveled but winter in the US can be brutal and the farther north in the US crossing into Canada is even worse. With that said, virtually anywhere in the US is possible. Though travel to a major city in the southern part of the US would be a better bet in winter than the northern part.



Also, I can legally drink alcohol anywhere where its legal. A drink with other people from WG would be epic.

By Colinwarrior on 05/08/2009
BTW, come to lovely Detroit! hash.png

Bah Americans are wimps when it comes to weather. As long as you have snow tires in Canada, you're fine for the most part. You might need chains for driving in the mountains though.

And the cold isn't THAT bad. Sure it can get to minus 40 Celsius with the wind but that just means you wear a warmer touque or maybe even...A SCARF!

Anyways, November isn't that bad for weather in Canada. Depressing as hell because it's cold, rainy and there's no snow on the ground dry.gif

Anyways, I'm in Kingston, Ontario at that point of the year. Legal drinking age for Canada kthxbai.

Or somewhere else in Ontario.

Seriously people.
You should start posting how far you're willing to travel rather than say "Habe it in state X" because I'll get like 20 different states and I'll end up just not bothering to hold one.

Anywhere between chicago and pittsburgh, preferably closer to chicago since unlike most people... my school NEVER lets out and I always have class at least twice a week lol.

Also, alcohol keeps you warm. So bring on Canadian mountains.

If I'd be able to go it depends on the time of month (like after exams), but I'd potentially be willing to travel to most places on the east coast, the closer to DC the better.

By For Sooth on 05/08/2009
Well i'd say i'd travel like 4 hours max from Toronto. But i would never go if it were in Detroit or the likes. Worst place ever to go.

By The_Z_Blade3 on 06/08/2009
I would be willing to travel a bit from where I live in wisconsin.. say down to chicago up to the canadian border.. If you're up for it that is

By Gibble00 on 06/08/2009
Honestly, the best thing to do might be to plan the trip and then give WG members a chance to see where you'll be around and you can alter it around that. Don't want you to make plans about what people say now, especially when they could back out of it.

By WG_Aaron on 06/08/2009
Im willing to travel as far north in cali as LA, so options are: Los Angeles or its outlying counties, San Diego or its outlying counties. Id also be willing to travel to Las Vegas.

By Winddancir on 06/08/2009
I'm in North CA. Sacramento. Lack of car and some one to watch kid means that if I go to San Fran, I'd have kid with me and it would be a day trip only. I'd also be on you all about language in front of her... Or worse, SHE'D tell you to watch your language.

If it was in Sacramento though, I could possibly drop her off back at home for the evening/night, and go back out. Public transportation sucks, but it works.

And I would be willing to travel up to like 100 miles.

By Havochaha on 06/08/2009
I can travel to any popular locatoin ( vacation spots)

By Bobster125 on 06/08/2009
I could possibly be heading around that time to the USA for a vacation my self so it could be possible i appear at one of these. =o

I can't really go that far.

My only realistic options are San Fran and Sacramento. I don't have a car so I'd be using publi transportation. I'd also be in school at the time so I can't be going very far because of that.

By Nick on 06/08/2009
I live in south Alabama and it would be around school time so the only way I would be able to make it is a day trip that would be within about 2 to 3 hours, if my parents permit. Can't drink, only 16. I can drive though, and I do have a car.

Southern Mississippi, southern Alabama, and the panhandle of Florida. Pretty much my distance.

By sgtswordfish on 06/08/2009
it would be awesome to have you by the east coast. since its going to be for winter. washington dc would be a suitable choice.


won't be of legal drinking age when you get here. *designated driver*

By ArSeNaLfAn32 on 06/08/2009
I live in northern california. As do 1colonel, winddancir, and some other WG. I'd say I'd be willing to drive 90 minutes to any place. MAYBE San Francisco, which is about 2 hours away.
Not legal drinking age.

EDIT: I can carpool with 1colonel, since he's going to live within 5 miles of me. I could probably pick up Tabs on the way to anywhere, too.

Tabs- Sac
Col - Davis
Me - Davis
Seahawkfan77 - DAVIS
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Lordy, it'd probably be easier to meet in Sacramento, then drive to davis???

By ArSeNaLfAn32 on 06/08/2009
PS: Lordy, if we do it in Davis, I can take you to Seahawkfan77's house. LOL.

By Scarface796 on 06/08/2009

If you have it in San Fran, you HAVE to go to Yosemite, it's to pretty to miss. Also Sequoia NP is nearby as well I believe, Also very neat.

Come to Arizona, we have droughts and wildfires. Ha.

Have fun. No go for me, but I definitely plan to meet you one day, even if I have to fly to Australia myself, and even if it's thirty years from now. Well, if you'd to meet anyway.

But who doesn't want to meet the Door, amirite?

By Timmy11593 on 06/08/2009
I live in Atlanta, GA. I hear a decent amount of people live in that general area. I'm willing to come out with you guys but I'm only 16. Do come to Atlanta. Seriously. smile.gif

By Timmy11593 on 06/08/2009
Oh and I can't drive. If anyone would be willing to pick me up I'd play a little for gas.

By Mmangler on 07/08/2009
Joe and I talked about it and we did not say how far. Well, you are coming from Australia and crossing the US. We can travel just about anywhere in the US and depending on when--school and work are a factor. Also, I can provide transportation via an automobile to those in need within reason. WG IRL--epic.

I still vote for warmer though because the cold is a DRAG.

By 30 Str 0wnz on 07/08/2009
If you ended up going to SoCal I would only be able to make it in the South Bay -.- (Redondo Beach, Torrance, Hermosa Beach, etc.). And I don't think you guys are beach-goers so :\

By Mmangler on 08/08/2009
USA travel tip. Flying from a large city air port to a large city airport is cheaper than flying from a large city airport to a small city airport. From large to small can involve the cabin attendant asking how much you weigh so they can balance the plane properly. Unusual, yes but it has actually happened to me too bad I didn't have my agile top and agile legs at the time. Oh, sorry that the game not real life. The line is beginning to blur (jk).

Don't know if there are any other members living close to there though...
I know, I know... I live in Sweden and stuff, but I've been to Vancouver 9 times already so 1 more time wouldn't hurt.

Hope to see some epic WG rl pictures from it all though hash.png

By Dieyou2000 on 11/08/2009
I'm willing to go awhiles away to go to a meeting. Problem is I'm 16, but since I have to get 50 hours of driving for a license, and I'm a lazy son of a bitch, I don't have it. So that combined with that I have school going on means I don't really get a say in how far I can go to get to a meeting. Just depends on when/where the meeting is, and how generous my parents are feeling at the time. All depends if it's during christmas break, in the middle of school, if I have tests coming up, if my parents are planning on going anywhere. Honestly I can't even make a prediction so don't worry about it, if I can make it I will.

By Planolocal on 11/08/2009
I'm texas, so lets try to get close to there. Ummm, im not sure how far i would be able to travel. considering where u decide to meet/how much the plane costs/ I'm only 17 and still live with my parents, I wouldn't be able to go very far.

For those of you who would be smoking other than tobacco... Please remember I'm allergic to it and get severe disabling migraines from just smelling it.

And Lordy, go ahead and cuss. It will be so fucking amusing to see all of you get told off by an 8 year old for being a bad example and not being able to watch your language in front of a kid. And she'd make you apologize.

Tbh Lordy, if you came to Canada, I would do Anything I Could to come! Even if it meant booking a Bus ticket to come down mate.

Im about 5 hours above Vancouver brahski. Never been though. West coast Canada ftw


But honestly, Im not the most stable on my own at the moment so I'd have to see as it came up. If I had enough money id just go down to the states tbh. But I doubt I will, but who knows.

By Dangy 13 on 19/08/2009
This would be interesting. From what I have seen, we have 1 KY, 2 GA, 1 AL, and 1TX so far. I am MS, so we are all within several hours of one another. Honestly the most central place would probably be mobile for the 6 of us, (sorry for whoever was in TX, and kinda sorry for KY), which is about an hour from me. I am willing to go further than that, but it is the most central area.... though I gotta say we could always meet at my house on the MS Gulf Coast and 21+ could hit up casinos after the meet.

It would be great to meet you guys, lookin' forward to it. wink.gif

By Mmangler on 20/08/2009
So San Francisco is a possibility and Canada. I have been to both though San Francisco is pretty far and I would probably fly. Now, Canada on the eastern side I can drive. In fact I was just in Montreal and Niagra Falls, Ontario. Its not just the driving in snow. Its the distances involved its a good eight hours to Niagra Falls and possibly an additional eight to Montreal in winter aargh. Also, the more notice that I have the cheaper the fare will be so when things firm up let me know. For those of you without transportation, depending on where you are it is possible that I may be able to provide transportation. Also, I know all of you are adults but if your parents require a chaperon I possibly could chaperon.

By Anthonysc on 23/08/2009
Too bad the west coast one is in San Fransisco (and not Seattle), California is a little out of my reach during the academic year. But consider Vancouver or Victoria (BC) for the Canada trip, there is a *chance* I *might* be able to make it.

By Wizard_Storm on 23/08/2009
Yeah that's another thing, if there is snow and ice I can't drive my car, it's too light and slides all over the road in winter.

By Kiwi011 on 24/08/2009
this could be fun =), I would probably be willing to travel maybe 8 hours away from where I live, (Colorado).

O btw, idk I can't drink but if enough under 21 yr old kids(18+)would there be a possibility of going to a hookah bar for some fun.


By Mmangler on 24/08/2009
Travel advisory. For those in the US, if you plan on going across the border to Canada, You will need a passport or an enhanced drivers license. The latter is issued by some states that share international borders like New York state. Also, it takes time to get a pass port so if you need one get one.

By Anthonysc on 25/08/2009
Follow up to Mmangler's post:

New York, Washington, Vermont and Michigan (on the U.S. side)
British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec and Manitoba (on the Canada side)

Offer enhanced drivers licenses which make crossing the border much easier If you are in one of those states/provinces and plan on crossing, I highly recommend one.

And Lordy, go ahead and cuss. It will be so fucking amusing to see all of you get told off by an 8 year old for being a bad example and not being able to watch your language in front of a kid. And she'd make you apologize.

Forget it then. Don't come.
I'm not going to travel half way across the world to get told where to go by an 8 year old.

I MIGHT be able to go to San Francisco. The only problem is that parking there is like impossible.
