What's happening in Columbus on 5/6?

Hey all...

I've got a business trip to Columbus next week on Thursday 5/6. I figured if anybody needs extra hands on an automotive (or non-automotive) project I'd just throw it out there. I'll be in town for the evening.

Or if someone just wants to meet up for a beer or something...I'm down with that.

I would be up for a beer or something. I work downtown.

I live two hours north but will be in Columbus the 4th and 5th for sure. Not all plans are firm yet and it is possible that I could still be there on the 6th.

If you guys want to come up to Delaware we could grill out at my place and rock some Forza 2 on the projector.

I'm up for a beer or something.

Got my son's soccer game Thursday night.

Clem, what part of town are you going to be staying?

Shucks, I'm a Columbus local. I'd be down for a GRMer meet-up since I missed the Ohio meet back in March.

I'll probably be staying pretty close to the airport since I have an early flight on Friday. I have a meeting in the early afternoon thursday and am pretty open for the evening time...

So does anyone know a good place to grab a beer and a bite around Dublin (or more toward the airport) Thursday? Maybe 6:00 or so?

Or if someone has a neat project to wrench on...I'm down!

I am not too familiar with the drinking in Dublin. I will ask around and get back to you. There is a great place downtown next to the convention center, not too far from the airport if that would work:

Both in Dublin:

City BBQ (local, there are a few)

Vincenzo's Deli, SW corner of 161 & Sawmill

Any of the three mentioned so far sound good to me.

I'll throw down my vote for Barley's, some really good brew made there and their Ruben is to die for.

OK...

How about Barley's around 7:00?

I'm a 6' tall blond-ish guy and I'll be wearing a green stripe-ud shirt that says "Otscon". Real name is Alex and my number is 573-673-niner237.

To be clear, you guys are meeting at the Barley's located at 467 North High Street 43215?

Hmmmmmm, will I or wont I, I will see what I have on for Friday.

In reply to Flynlow:

I live in Delaware, where are you at?

As long as nothing hits the fan at home I will be there. 5 9 red national guard shirt 614.270.55nine2

Well, it is unlikely I will be there. I have been here since Tuesday and will get back home tonight.
Anson, I suspect that your internationally famous car is not up and running at this time?

If things change I will look here to the forum for updates.

Still curious if this is happening in Dublin or downtown Columbus?

The dirty scirocco is running but I would have to hustle like hell to plate/insure it by this evening.

Downtown is fine by me...I'll plan on that. I'll sit at the bar (I suppose) for starters.

I won't show up, if I were to show up I would be carting my offspring or waiting until after 8:00 when she who must be obeyed returns from the gym.

Aussie, if you make an appearance I'll be asking you three to the power of ten questions regarding life with an e150.

I reckon I can still make it, so long as I wake up in time (night shift, ugh). I'll be wearing my Iron Man t-shirt, since I'm a nerd and I'll be going to the midnight premiere after dinner

And just in case - (five-zeeroh-too) 7fittyone-369zeeroh.

Ansonivan...Kids or after 8 is fine by me... (And I also understand that you probably won't make it).

I won't be a night owl tonight since I'm technically in the future (I'm a native central time zoner) and have to be at the airport by 6:00 am. (Typically I AM a night owl...so that's going to hurt)

I should be able to make it. I'll throw on my GRM shirt for easy recognition.
