BRB, Marching for Fear and/or Sanity Meetup - Live-Free-Or-Pie - 10-25-2010

[Image: TDS_banner_left.jpg][Image: CN_banner_left.jpg]

Hokay, so... Stewart/Colbert Rally in Washington D.C. on Saturday, it's a thing.

If any BRB'uninstallers are going to be in DC, we should meet up. For those who don't know, I live and work in the District; so I guess I'll coordinate this box social.

The march is from Noon to 3pm, doing a meet-up anytime after the march ends is going to be a bit of a charlie-foxtrot as 150,000 disperse from the mall simultaneously, so I propose a meet-up before stuff gets started so we can hang and march together

Details:
- DATE: October 30
- TIME: 11:00 am (1hr before rally)
- PLACE: Meet @ Union Station (short walk to the National Mall, cheap eats food court, bar immediately nearby for those of age)
- GETTING THERE: It's a metro stop on the Red Line (DC only has 5 train lines, color coded, easy as pie to figure out)

If you are going... Post in this thread and hit me up at livefreeorpie@gmail.com for a contact number

I concur, Turtle, probably not a good idea for you to do meetup if you're underage... oh well... have fun while you're in the district, let me know if you need some DC protips

I'm 99% sure that I'm going and I've actually been trying to figure out something to do before the rally. I may or may not have plans for afterwards though. If those fall through, we could always hit a few bars afterwards as well. I'll have to play it by ear as far as that goes.

They planned it for the day I leave Baltimore to go to NYC for Halloween.  Poor planning, Stewart!

So apparently there was this joke that happened. Can anyone explain the connection between the rally and this?

I wouldn't have been able to make it either. The orange line was all fucked up too. The Metro system was not ready for the volume of people trying use it that day. It was around 1:00 by the time I actually got to the rally. Pics to come.


Re: BRB, Marching for Fear and/or Sanity Meetup - at0m - 10-31-2010

I missed it because i'm in another fucking country. Get a real excuse.


Re: BRB, Marching for Fear and/or Sanity Meetup - Turtle - 10-31-2010

So i went. Heard a lot of stuff about the amount of people. Best one i heard was 400,000, Made me laugh. Although apparently it was like a rally permit for like 60,000 and got triple that or something. The metro was fucking PACKED. The driver threatened to off-load (kick out) everyone twice because we couldn't get the fucking doors shut. The amount of people went like 4 blocks outside the park it was suppose to be in though, and we were actually IN the park. Ended at 3 and we got out at like 3:30 because of the fucking tons of people. I'll have pics later but im tired and my phone died. Also i saw the back of stephen colberts head so it was a good day.




Re: BRB, Marching for Fear and/or Sanity Meetup - Totla - 10-31-2010

Most accurate estimates I've heard are around 215,000.
Really wish I could have gone, or even seen it. I was gone from 4 am until 11 pm Saturday.

Reddit is butthurt because Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert didn't give them credit for the idea. At least thats what some dude on Fark thinks.

I think Drew Curtis is projecting his butthurt for not getting as much mainstream love as reddit

EDIT: he bitched and moaned all about it to Fox News: http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2010/11/01/stewart-slaps-reddit-fark
