Love love love Pat O's!

[saturn]

Think of those lubberly oysters!

[t.o..fester]

I just couldn't go to NOLA without hitting Pat's.

[Amy Winette]

That's how I feel about Pat's too T.O. Their patio is just one of my favorite places.

[ScoopJohnD]

One of my favorite afternoons was spent slurping em down, having some beer, and just chatting with the shucker and whoever happened to sit next to me.

[barry10016]

1st stop after checking in, is Acme. Gimme a dozen and an Amber please.

[mangoon]

Pats-my 1st ever bar stop in NOLA.

I'd lean towards Acme,.. if I wasn't a STAND "and keep em' comin'" kind of Felix guy......

[PaulC]

Although callin' your friends (who bailed on the fest) as you "sit" wavin' at them on the oyster cam is hard to beat......

[ohio]

never met an erster I didn't like!

[Michelino]

These days, Pat's easier to get into...although Acme's take on Charbroiled oysters can go the distance all by itself

[pokerchick66]

Had to go with Pat O's; too many good memories and pictures.

[swag]

A couple of lead changes already. I think this matchup will come down to the wire.

[Amy Winette]

Swag, what happens in the even of a tie??

Hmmm, I don't know. Anyone have ideas for a good format for overtime, or maybe a shootout?

[Amy Winette]

May be a moot point as this one isn't tied anymore. I thought there were a few more ties last night though . . . When does voting end?

I had originally said 8pm tonite for 1A, but I may let it go until the polls lock tomorrow afternoon (time show at the top of each thread).

[Amy Winette]

Forget when you oringally posted the polls -- today is a holiday for lots so if you only have a computer at work you might not know about it yet . . .

[neverleft]

Always go to Pat O' Briens and have a Hurricane by the fountain, always cool.

Amy's point about a holiday is a good one...Also do you think it would be good to advertise this tournament in the "main" forum via another thread...I think it is the primary stop for a lot of posters. I didn't see it for about a day myself. It's a lot of fun and I doubt that those of us who are already in would mind the redundancy.

[swag]

Ok, I will extend thru Tuesday afternoon.

Feel free to post about the brackets on the Main, if you like.

[stynger]

Pat O's is where I asked the wife to marry me. So yeah it's a cool place

[Amy Winette]

Way cool Stynger!

Nice!

Was it awkward the next day, when she sobered up and realized she'd said yes?

:D

[stynger]

verry funny.Nice!

[Amy Winette]

Where are my Pat O's peeps? I feel so passionately about this one I think I should get to vote twice :)

[BigDag]

Oysters! Oysters!

[NYMAMA]

HURRICANES! HURRICANES! HURRICANES!

[Amy Winette]

Mmm, hmmm, I'll second that hurricanes, but I fear we're about to lose (damn!)

Oysters. You can't even get into that crowded place half the time!! ;)

[mangoon]

Pat O's making the last ditch come back.

[BigDag]

I'm assuming these poll closing times are Central. That means there's less than three hours to show support for your friend, the mighty oyster. Granted, the oyster's opposition, Pat O's, is a fine institution and we've all had our share of good times there. But those hurricanes will turn on you without warning. They extract their revenge by making your head swim and stomach wretch. Not so the oyster. Oysters are an excellent source of vitamins A, B1, B2. B3, C and D. Four or five medium size oysters supply the recommended daily allowance of iron, copper, iodine, magnesium, calcium, zinc, manganese and phosphorus. They are great by themselves, or dipped in a hearty sauce of ketchup, horseradish, Lea & Perrins and Tabasco. Dear friends, in my humble opinion, you have only one sensible choice. Vote Acme Oyster House!

[Amy Winette]

What's the poll closing time? We just need one more vote for a tie!! C'mon Pat O's! There are lots of nutrients in hurricanes too, I'm sure of it.

Lol. It's not fair pulling out the health card.
Theres got to be some healthy fruitjuice like substance in hurricanes.

[Amy Winette]

woo hoo, Pat O's up by 1, what's the cut off again??
