East Coast Ullrfest 2018; Do it this year or you'll be older when you finally do

It's more like a Cat-house, than trailer park, but hey, you gotta pay rent somehow...

It will all work out. It always does and Casa de AugustWest is mere minutes away if we need something last minute.

**BigDaddy** · 10-20-2018, 05:38 AM

I'm bringing a 50 lb pig to cook in the box along with a pork butt and some sausages, but if anyone wants to grill something else, feel free to bring it. We can either stuff it in the box, or grill on top.

This is a lot of food for just those on the Ullrfest roll call, tho... Any idea if there will be many from Magic general population? Also, looks like it's the same time as game 4 of the WS, so I will bring the technology to watch on the bring screen outdoors.

There will be a few Magic local folk. I've been spreading the word that no dinero, no cerdo.

^Sounds good. Not that my mission isn't to feed the world or anything...

Biggins, great to hear. I promise, you'll leave fat and happy.

WTF does any of that have to do with Ullrfest? Nice pics and all but there are other threads and forums for that. Are you coming to Ullrfest?

We don't call them packies up here...or bottle shops. For the most part, it's gas stations. And no, you can't get Heady south of the Mad River Valley or Barre (which isn't that far from Bethel). Do yourself a favor and grab some First Drop or anything from Burlington Beer Company...expand your horizons.

Sorry thought this was the EC roll call, I’ll delete the post when I’m not on my phone. Thanks for the tip on the beer I’ll check those both out!

BBC has so many wonderful offerings.

FD is my go-to now on tap @ the BLT.

haha... no worries. If you go over Bethel Mt. Rd. into Rochester, then head north on 100 into Hancock, JD's Beer Cave (Sunoco Station) has a ton of Lawson's, Upper Pass, etc., but no HT:

Jesus, not sure why I said that, as you are 100% correct. Obviously, I've been to too many in my lifetime...

Forecast is looking sunny for next Saturday. Maggots and maggettes, this is great way to meet ski buddies for this upcoming winter and not to mention, it's a damn good time.

**FussyDutchman** · 10-22-2018, 06:03 AM

I see fresh Cloud Drop, not sure it's made it up here yet but I'll be sure to check today.

Any recent updates on the grand opening date for New Mecca?

**Vt-Freeheel** · 10-22-2018, 06:22 AM

Upper Pass has opened their new joint, they keep delaying the New Mecca and I missed Valley Night when I returned from Phish last Thursday. Plenty of private parties so far.

**Vt-Freeheel** · 10-22-2018, 06:31 AM
