Though I've never been able to make it to one of the previous Brooklynian Games Nights, they seem pretty successful - see here:

(Surely these been a more recent one than these - hasn't there? My quick search came up fruitless.)

Let's have another! It's been more than 30 years (gawd!) since I last tried air hockey, and I'm sure I haven't improved, but what the hell!

Where: Ocean's (fka Brownstone Billiards) at Flatbush and Park Place
When: Wednesday December 2, 2009 from 7pm* to .... [*originally scheduled for starting at 8pm, changed to start at 7pm due to popular request]

So - anyone in??

Edited to:
Change start time to 7pm
Add poll to vote for preferred date

    Can't do wednesday's I'm busy in the city on those days but if everyone wants that day I'll try and switch my plans. Why don't we start a poll and see what everyone can agree on? Most importantly we need WiFi and Carny to be there because they have a historic game-night rivalry that must be satisfied!

    Whoa , they sure added a lot to that place!

    They serve food now but I still want AlBaz.. I might have to sneak it in. Or ,whatever , I'll go stand outside and eat it. I might not care that day. :twisted:

    8pm is kind of a late start. Can we do 6pm or 7pm start time?

    We do? :lol:

    Seems to me that he beats me in airhockey, he won't touch me in table tennis or darts, and we have yet to settle anything in billiards... but I'm game! Wed actually works pretty well for me... I'd probably have to bug out at 10pm, but that's better than most nights.

    Wed 12/2 works for me. I could do 7 or 8, but vote for 7 so my BFF can come.

    Have added poll for the date, and changed start time to 7pm. After all if we start at 7pm we can hang out with Em and enjoy Happy Hour drinks!

    I've never been in Brownstone Billiards.... we don't need to reserve space/tables or anything.... do we??
  • em26

    Thank you. :)


    We didn't have to reserve anything the last time but that was over 2 years ago , tho.

    Aww , so nice.

    I'll be cheering for you , BFF. And for my GFF. :)

    Anyone up against them is getting dirty looks from across the room. :twisted:


    Whyfi , I'll cheer for you as long as your opponent is not my BFF or GFF. :mrgreen:

    Hmmm. The last time I played billiards, I hit the cue ball so hard it flew up and hit the guy at the next table.
    And the last time I bowled I tossed the ball at the pin sweeping thingee (it didn't go back up and I figured if I just played the next bowl it would get out of the way).
    And no one who knows me has ever trusted me with a dart.
    But other than that I'm, umm, game.
    Oh, and any night works for me but the poll doesn't let me vote for all three nights.

    ok, so in one corner we have Em, Mama, and now Stuart.

    (Stuart, I still owe you a beer from the fishing trip mishap).

    Huh? :shock:

    Why you sticking butter fingers near me and my GFF??

    He is to play with you all night. ...preferably with the darts.

    There's no varsity jacket in my closet either.

    ...I find I do best at games of chance.

    And for that very reason I am definitely in. (whenever)
