Inviting All Tampa Bay FReepers To A July 4th Meet-Up For Beer, Wine, and Wood-Burning Brick Oven Pizza!
June 21, 2024 | Self

Posted on 06/21/2024 12:14:31 PM PDT by 4Runner

Trying to get an idea if this would work. How many FReepers are in our area? Was thinking adults only, since we are oldsters, and there will be alcohol. Trying to get some idea of level of interest. Also if any FReeper has done this before, how did you keep left-wing trolls/activists from gate-crashing your backyard? Pizza provided by us, hand-made from scratch with Italian ingredients, cooked either on the charcoal grill or in an 800-degree wood burning brick oven. BYOB, beer/wine whatever, and BYOF bring your own fireworks too. We have two large crated hounds, so no pets. But most of all you could bring your politics. Nice location, we are in Citrus Park 15 miles NW of Tampa. Property backs onto conservation area with 100-foot-tall cypress trees surrounding our backyard. Plenty of street parking available. Neighbors regularly have hordes of vehicles show up for gatherings of one stripe or another, so visitor vehicles parked in our subdivision isn't out of place, and we aren't a gated community. Anyone who'd be up for this can RSVP for the particulars by FReepmailing me. Or use the comments, and we'll get back to you. Thanks.

This may be the last July Fourth we get to celebrate. Not trying to be a "Danny Downer" but you all know what's at stake in 2024.

What? You’re 88 years old and going the way of Donald Sutherland?

jk.

Sounds like fun and a great idea! But I’m on the other side of the country, so won’t be there. Best of luck making it fun FReeper time!

Can these guys come to your party? They're all FReepers. They've said so.

Pretty cool idea. I live in ABQ, NM so can’t make it. But isn’t it suffocatingly hot and humid in FL this time of year?

Anyway, hope it works out.

“keep left-wing trolls/activists from gate-crashing your backyard?”

Perhaps $10/head, all to go to Free Republic?

What a great idea! Sounds wonderful. It would be great to match a face with a familiar moniker. I hope the Left doesn’t try to screw things up. They should be wary to try crashing a Freeper party. Thanks for the invite, but sorry I won’t be able to make it - I’m a thousand miles up the road from Tampa.

I’d go but wouldn’t disclose my ID. Too many over the top posts.

“suffocatingly hot and humid in FL”

My neighbors Mark and Melanie throw late day pool parties quite often.

Only mad dogs and construction workers could tolerate the sun from 10am to about 6pm.

Being in the shade is tolerable.

It would be collected Hamilton by Hamilton.

[If via online, there’s a screen shot afterward that could be printed out.]

Require photo ID, if freeper snagdog33swiss can’t show photo ID proof then don’t let him in.

I’m in the area but got 8 grand kids to spend the 4th with.
We’d consider but an adults only event rules us out.

FBI probably would show up. Hadn’t thought about that.

What, no Cuban sandwiches? Seriously, I grew up in Tampa; but I’m an exile in Delaware.

I recall years ago we had several WA Freeper get togethers. Not a more wonderful group of Patriots. Do it! Keep it simple.

Yes. I was the social secretary of the Puget Sound FReeper Chapter. We even had Michelle Malkin drop in for two FReeper Meets.

At the 2000 Meet, we smoked a whole hog named Diane Feinswine.

The last Meet was in 2007 at a cabin in the woods around Olympia.
