ArmchairGM - Shea Stadium outing

11
Vote

by user Patrickburke1980

Recently, user All~In~Chicago came up with the idea to organize an outing of ArmchairGM.com users at a sporting event or bar. I think this is a fantastic idea. We can use it as a mass marketing event. Who is up for getting one together at Shea Stadium this summer?


All~In~Chicago's idea:

"I have a sign made up on poster board and framed it to a playwood back. Also I am going to make up 1/4 sheet flyers with the same info on it. It has the web address on it and I also will take emails of those interested so I can email them about what ACGM really is all about. I think it would be great to get a good # of people in each of a different city to join, then we could have ACGM bar outings and look into getting group ticket packages. Still work in progress, but I'll have it ready by NFL." -- All~In~Chicago

It's because the four of us who founded the site all live in the NYC area, and three of us are Mets fans. Users find the site via word of mouth typically, and we're most active in NYC sports communities. But as you can see, it's spreading well past NY.

I'll commemorate the outing by getting drunk and cussing at the Mets from home! (Then looking for a bunch of guys I have no what they look like, and then screaming at my wife and kids - "THERE THEY ARE, THERE THEY ARE!!!")

Staten Island has the worlds largest landfill. Why not meet there instead? The traffics better and the ambiance and architecture are about equal to Shea.

Wow... I mean I take special care to rip NY NY every chance I get, but that was uncalled for... Everyone knows Jersey is where the landfills are, even if Staten Island should rightfully be a part of Jersey.

And make such a racket that you end up in all the papers, advertising the site in the process... No publicity is bad publicity!

I'm serious...let's plan this out. Once we have tickets, we can plan out all the rediculous things we can do to get some publicity.

If someone is willing to pay for my broke ass out to Shea, I'd gladly soak in a day of baseball with the rest of--or a select few of--the ArmchairGM community. What I can do to return the favor of paying my way out there now, I can save up some cash and buy some shirts later and hand them out for promotional reasons.
