I would like to try and have some of the fans on here and Wes and Ryan meet up one night while they are here for the camp at Milligan. Maybe go eat and just meet each other and put a face with the screen name. Any ideas? Wes and Ryan would you like to do this and would you be able to meet up?

I would definitely be interested in some sort of get together. I am sure we are talking about somewhere that libation is involved. Beef O'Brady's or Mellow Mushroom. Hell, even Bailey's or 112 or something. Something...

That would be absolutely amazing. Anywhere that we could partake in the consumption of alcohol would be amazing.

Great idea. I'm down with that. Be hard to get all of us in though.

Count me in too. Throwing out some ideas for places...
- Cafe 112 in downtown JC. Only 4.2 miles from Milligan. Decent food with lots of TV's for Olympics, and good drink specials.
- Someone said Hooter's. Wouldn't be a bad choice. Also close to Milligan.
- Bailey's. Large place, with lots of TV's, pool tables, dart boards, etc. Close to Milligan too. Only downside is the smoke, if that bothers you... they are one of the few places that still allow smoking.
- 'Hokie-Smokie'. I've never been, but this is a BBQ place next to the JC mall that is Virginia Tech and Tennessee themed. I think they also have drinks and TV's.
As far as space goes, Bailey's and One12 have the most room for us to be up and walking around talking with each other. Like I said, I've never been to Hokie Smokie. Hooter's might be a little crowded if we have a good showing.

112 downtown might be our best bet.

Count me in on this too. I live in Bristol, but it wouldn't be hard for me to make the trek to meet up.
JMO, but I would say Bailey's or 112 would be the best options. I haven't been to 112, but heard it's a pretty cool place. Either way it doesn't matter to me.
