A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball

Stadium construction pics (1999)

 

 

 

Ok, the following are some pics of my recent trip through Oregon and back down to Reno. Summer 2018.

Here’s my stack after  felting several unsuspecting poker players in a tournament at the Peppermill:

Here’s a pic of my run through the meadow one morning at Black Butte. That is Black Butte:

this is a view from my mom’s deck on the 14th at Big Meadow in Black Butte:

this is me and my old man on the 4th. I swung through Medford for a night to see him.

And here’s a pic of, I think, part of the first hole at Big Meadow with BB in the background

This is a new page that is dedicated to any image that a Flapper wants to share with Flavor Nation. I’ve received a million photos from you guys over the years and I’m sorry I didn’t think to do this sooner (or keep them). If you want to add a pic just re-send it to me. Ideally it will be from a game you attended. Maybe it’s a pic of you and the World Series trophy. Let’s keep it *Giants related*—-

me, my dad and my stepmom had dinner at the Sundance in Palo Alto last night. They live in Oregon now, I don’t see them too often. Not sure when Bowden started wearing suspenders but he was pretty stoked he was wearing them, lol

Here’s one of Blade I took in the Summer of ’78 when I met him down in Mexico at the same bar where Butch Cassidy was filmed (there are so many holes in this lie I’m sure you don’t even know how to call me on it!

Here’s a pic of me accepting the party’s nomination at the Public House pre-game. James is intently following this moment. 🙂

These two are from the *shirt presentation* that Snarkk mc’d. I love the 2nd pic because everyone is smiling and realizing that no one spilled the beans and the “group project” was ultimately realized successfully! From left to right: Ted, Steve, Chi Power (Chuck), Me, Tom (Snarkk), James and Pawlie

me and Blade at Golds. Blurry. Sorry. Dude snapping the pic was an idiot

UncaChuck snapping a photo with The White Shark while he wears his WS ring inside someone’s home. Yes, this is a perfectly normal picture….eh?

Zumie sporting his Rod Beck Tribute look. Most retro and awesome.

These next 4 are from Chi who went to ST with his daughter. She’s good looking, it’s a good thing he was there to keep an eye on her. 🙂

From our friend Blade snapped somewhere on his ’roundtheworld trip. After I retire I might find this cat and buy his restaurant and just spend the rest of my days hangin’ out on the porch at good ‘ol  Flavor’s Cafe:

Macdog and Pawlie met up at Finnerty’s for the trophy-gaze. Pics from Macdog:

Larry B getting personal with the muscular barkeep.

Peter Mags with, I want to believe, DJLoo in the background wearing the Giants cap. 🙂

Pawlie and MacDog, keepin’ it super real.

Pawlie, doing what he does best, signing his book….

A couple of people touching the glory. Chick in the background looks unsatisfied, sexually. And there are unconfirmed reports that DJLoo is actually balancing the trophy on his head!

_______________________________________________________________

These 3 are from DennisZ– 2 are from Finnerty’s, a Giants safe-house in, I think, New York. He and Pawlie caught a playoff game there. The other one is of him at Cooperstown reminding everyone there *what time it is*

my softball jersey from a couple of years ago. It’s a good thing I went yard as often as I did or I would have looked like an idiot. 🙂

pic taken of my tv (by my daughter) as soon as we won our 2nd WS in the last 3 years. Last time Dodgers won one was in 1988. Baha…….

Pic taken of me right after we won our SECOND WS in the last 3 years. There’s a story behind why I’m wearing a Raiders shirt but it’s too long to tell right now.

Two fun seasons out of two; thanks Craig and U Flappers
