What about planning for something on September 3, 2022. It's the Saturday of labor day and many on here state they prefer to no be on the water. So why not get together at a local watering hole?

Gents / Ladies...the latest BBQ thread has sparked up some interest to get the TFF folks rolling in packs again to our member's Diners, Drive-In, and Dives. Who on here has put these events together and how often should we hold these?
My list so far....
407 BBQ (Argyle, TX)
Shuck Me (Multiple Locations...newest in Denton)
Wawi's Place (Forgive me, not familiar but heard a few stories of the fun to be had)
Maybe after a few of these events, we could borrow some keys from Spags, or Steez and drive around their whips on the lot.
My wife doesn’t even get to drive my cars. 
Eat. Sleep. Fish.

Maybe if we do then some folks will actually show up.
Most of the former G2Gs we did in TFFers placers were duds. Sure, there have been the rare time when quite a few showed up. We always did head counts to see how many to expect and most of the affirmatives never showed up. These guys who own the restaurants usually make special plans for us with reserved tables and maybe even an extra employee to just wait on us. We had one for 407 several years ago and about 20 people were coming. I think 5 made it. We had one at Shuck Me in Southlake and about 15 were coming - 3 showed up. There are other examples but I've made my point.
This is a great idea to meet and greet with some TFFers you may never have met, and it should bring extra business to the restaurant, but we should show the owners enough respect to actually show up! My God, What a KillJoy post Was he wrong? I have been to a few TFF get together, they were lots of people, especially the TFF Christmas Parties. We used to have TFF G2G Bass Tournaments on Lake Monticello where big fish won the pot, We would have close to 50 boats I have seen Buda throw up some charitable G2G on Lake Grapevine that drew large crowds So yes, I would say in general he is wrong Have you been to one at 407, Old Town Ice House or any of Ratz’ OT tournaments in the last five years?

You don't need lots to show, just quality.

Charge everyone a $50 refundable deposit who says they will attend. If they show, refund the deposit. If they no show the $$ goes to the host or the wait staff. Works great for GTG's at the studio.

I went to a Christmas party years ago, it was well attended. And we had a get together on grapevine, also years ago and well attended. I might be up for a 407 get together since I haven’t had the pleasure of eating there yet

When an activity coordinator asks questions, it shows weakness. Ask RJ where the local watering hole is. Then give a prize for the guy that drives the farthest to show up. I think he might like a new Jerkbait rod.
