I hope that UK bus broke down and the Card fans missed the game. Now that would be a ***** bus.

Hagans 1 assist and 1 rebound shy of a triple double. Man. This team without him would be completely lost.

We set out to take the 3 from them and did. Then make them work extremely hard to get anything else. It wore them down big time. If it wasn't for our turnovers we would have rolled them.

Nick taking a 15 foot baseline J in the middle of the game is fine. Nick taking 2 in a 1 to 2 possession game in crunch time not so much.

Wish we had not struggled scoring in the second half but we made plays when needed.

I was needling the guy who just won the lottery for a Stagg. (The same guy who caught my Woodyard autocorrect.)

^ this took my iPhone 5x to not put out ‘Woodward’.

In any case, for those of us who struck out on the entire BTAC 19 - we are butthurt. I can only rely on nerds reviews... I know Stagg has to be better than Jr.

I’m a proof-hound and 132 is pretty juicy. I like the flavors too for $56.

that said, WLW is the GOAT.

I’m hoping to get my hands on a ‘19 William Heavenhill.

What Heaven Hill do you want?

As far as GTS goes, ‘19 > ‘18 but the 2017 is possibly by far my favorite pour of bourbon to this point.

Let me know if you’d like to get into a bourbon betting group. We have people lining up daily to to lose their GTS bottles multiple times over.

I don’t know the years on all I have had but in my humble opinion-

WLW and Stagg are pretty equal up top- amazing ****. Then, I’d put Four Roses Special (130 and this years), William Heavenhill (have had two editions), Rip 10, Lot B and Birthday Bourbon in that next tier in some order.

I’ve had Pappy 15 but it was awhile ago.

The only bottle I’d say that is common but expensive that your missing is the King of Ky.

The other rare HH27 or Very Old Carter 27yr etc are unreal, but impossible to get.

I popped my DH 12 and Blantons SFTB for a whiskey bub last weekend. Both outstanding.

Blanton’s was kinda my BTAC moment from my collection. I have a few more unicorns but this one is awesome. (Pappy 15, Owl, Jeff Pres 16)

I paid 220 for that bottle from the distillery, and it sells on secondary from 250-275.

Almost worth secondary to avoid taxes and have it shipped to your door!

EDIT: I think that Jefferson’s apparently had some bottles that were from the stitzel-weller barrels. I’m not sure how to tell which ones but I could ask someone how he knows his is actual stitzel-weller.

12 yr WHH? :joy:

That’s what the HH27 goes for sometimes even though it regularly is closer to 900-1000.

I hope you got the bottles confused.

parkers heritage Rye too

I just acquired a 2011 Parker's Heritage Barrel Finished in Cognac barrels. Some of the best stuff I've ever had.

Still have never opened my Elijah Craig 20-y.o. I bought at the gift shop at Evan Williams 8 years ago. Think I'll hold on to it until I can get at least a grand for it.

Is there a worse more mundane honeydo than cleaning out the garage/attic? Unbelievable the junk you can accumulate during the course of time, particularly with kids in the mix.
