NLU Texas Cup (Formerly Bucc-ees Cup) Pine Dunes June 5/6 2021

Events NIT
508

I’m so fucking stoked for this. Three-day work week next week!!

Everyone reading this, dinner on Saturday will be roughly $22 per person. That includes tons of meat, sides, and even some desserts (and iced tea I THINK, will confirm). Once I confirm with Stanleys, I’ll ask for Venmo or Paypal up front, and we can track paids on the event spreadsheet. Unlike at a wedding, I’m going to strive to order pretty close to the edge of under-ordering; there’s not really a good place to keep a bunch of leftovers. The bigger condos have fridges, but we’re all just leaving Sunday anyway. Everyone go easy on your first plate :).

If we actually want to try and stream Spieth’s 2015 Masters win, I also have a projector and am happy to bring it. I don’t have a screen (we use a wall at my house), but I can bring the projector and my computer. I’m not going to make this decision, but if someone else makes it for us, I’ll pack the shit.

@Csherm23 is there a good place by the condos where we could project this against a wall in the evening?

Though it feels like streaming his Open Championship victory from the Driving Range may be more appropriate, probably logistically challenging.

This is quickly turning into the most bizzare, incredible weekend I’ll never be able to fully explain to non-Refugees. I’m so pumped

I feel like Fandango should definitely be on the stream list.

Spieth is fine, He’s the only Longhorn I will root for. But given the spirit of the weekend I would suggest streaming the 2016 Ryder Cup. Just my 2cents. Can’t freaking wait, gonna be so pumped up there is a less than 50% chance I make contact with my first tee shot.

I appreciate the bravery displayed to give a Spieth ‘meh’ take.

I promised at the beginning that I was an ideas gui, I never said any of them would be good.

Why rewind to 2016 when we can get a VHS rewind to 1999?!

You stop that right now. No need for in-fighting.

Oh no, potential conflict. I just realized that the lights will be going out at the Baku Grand Prix right when the singles matches are heating up on Sunday morning. And if I know my East Texas pineywoods, the cellular data service will be bad to none.

Service wasn’t great but on the course it wasn’t bad yesterday
Could check Twitter and add to the grint all day

The cool thing is the race ends up the same whether you watch it or not

Now what about Mavs playoffs games?

I should probably know this but aren’t there TV’s in the condos?

I don’t usually put weight in a forecast more than 3-days out, but looks like the course could see a little bit of rain next week and hopefully stays dry for the weekend!

I’m not really sure. The opening beside the 18th green where most groups hang out and cook may have something.

I’m down for helping out with a Friday cookout if that’s the route we go. I guess alternatives would be getting pizzas or heading out to Tyler? I’m good with whatever the group wants.

My vote is not traveling so we can drink freely. So that would lean toward a cookout if they’ve got quality grills to use.

I can also help out with grilling. We probably need someone to bring grilling tools though.
