You usually hit that up after Campo Alegre?
According to wikipedia Tony Roma's outlasted Campo Alegre - it's now closed (thanks for nothing, COVID).

I went to Aruba once and met this old American dude on the beach who said he lived there for the last 10 years. I asked him any good restaurant recs. He suspiciously looked right and left like he was letting me in on a little secret... then he almost whispered, "I'll tell you the place to go... Tony Roma's".

The Aruba Tony Roma's went under in 2021. I'm sure he is dissapointed.

The Hornets are so damn stupid and it sounds like that is t changing. With LaMelo in place they are considering Scoot to pair with LaMelo so having 2 PGs.

It’s also said, and mentioned here, Portland wants to trade #3 for a vet to make Dame happy. Business wise though if the dumbass Hornets are in front of you, then you have to wait to see if Brandon Miller lands in your lap because he is the perfect fit for Portland.

Never been to Curaçao, but Aruba has fantastic restaurants. At least 3 chefs table spots that wouldn’t be out of place in NYC, and tons of other local gems. Of course, stuff for the Krazykats of the world, too.

Been 11x, my favorite Caribbean island for many reasons, namely the guaranteed perfect weather (desert climate) & casinos. The endless Venezuelan tourist babes don’t hurt either, it’s 15 Miles from their coast.

Shame about Campo, place seemed like a swell time. 😎

Aruba has a red light district of its own with tons of small brothel bars, but nothing like Campo which apparently was basically a mega Bunny Ranch.

The Dutch get it.

I’m over these needy hookers (read: females not actual hookers) around here, might be time to try out a red light district in Aruba.

Never been obviously, but there it’s a seedy area about a hour drive from the resorts/beaches, down in the old refinery Town.

More a general feeling about our Dutch friends who’ve never worried about weed, sex, gambling, and other ******** America has wasted way too much time, money, and resources combatting, basically forever.

But Good to see we’re coming around. Sorry Wayne 🤡

Boy you are soooo wrong. I spent a lot of time in the Netherlands. The Dutch are just taller, better looking Germans. They are smart, structured and disciplined. They can handle prostitution and legal drugs because they seldom participate in that. Instead, they earn rents by pairing a bunch of belligerent, drunk, squatty Englishmen with desperate hookers from Eastern Europe.

It’s like the naked spa I went to over there - a hidden gem in Utrecht well off the beaten path where nobody but the Dutch would venture to go. All the people there were tall, thin and absent of “body art”.

Now imagine what that would be like in the US - a freak parade.

- When I am dead F’ing serious about something and I really want the person or people I’m addressing to be aware, I always end with “Capisce?” Really works as an explanation point.

- A skill I truly admire in others- the ability to make smalltalk. I hate it. I always have this lingering fear I’m the person they can’t get away from so I tend to end conversations abruptly. My dad on the other hand told me he ran into an old buddy of mine the other night and talked to him for an hour. I guarantee he’s not exaggerating.

Now in true social settings , I’m very outgoing.

- Which reminds me of one of my dad’s life rules, which I somewhat understand but not completely, “You can’t ******** a bullshitter.”

- Trying to plan a dude’s weekend trip is pure torture. No one wants to take the reigns let alone commit. Meanwhile, my wife is like 8-0 on me on friends trips the last 3 years and its all on me because my friends are all garbage MFers.

- Man the leafblower is one exciting ride until the next day when you realize all your blowing was for naught. *that’s what she said

- Ted Lasso has lost its fastball. Just weird pointless storytelling this season. Happens to them all. Even the greats like Seinfeld, Scrubs, The Andy Griffith Show and The Office.

- As for fictional bars I wouldn’t mind getting wrecked in, the dive in Shameless would be up there. Cheers of course. The Harvard bar in Good Will Hunting appears inviting. That Hawaiian bar in “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” is dope.

- Looks like we’re headed back to the Bahamas to see friends in July.

Any suggestions on flying to Nassau? It’s still a year away but I’m thinking flying to Ft Lauderdale on a Saturday and taking Bahamas Air early Sunday morning since it looks like it’s a regular flight.

I’ve never met you, but these dudes in this thread get together 8 times a football season, and seemingly every single region UK goes to in march.

I’ve quoted both of these back to back statements as one led right into the other, so what is it you don’t understand about your dads rule?

Agree with all of these. Would add in Paddy’s from Always Sunny, just for the inevitable sheer chaos alone.

Been saying since our ill fated trip to Columbia in 2007 that UK should build some Game Day condos next to the stadium. UT is going to take that concept and add entertainment venues to it. Could Lexington support something like that near CWS? Let's say where Greg Page Apts are(if they are still there?).

For you man cave types on here. I bought this (along with the arcade games console/controller upgrade) and it is a steal. The pinball feels extremely realistic, and you can buy a flash drive and play virtually any coin operated arcade game you ever wanted. It comes with 22 Gottleib pinball tables installed, but you can purchase additional classic and retro tables for it.

It should help occupy your time, once you've turned off another dismal UK Basketball performance.
