Guest Blog Entry!

4 or 5 years ago Voegs mentioned that he met some guys at Champs for a First Friday Funday at Champps. I attended and had a blast. Done it every year since. John officially declared a venue change for this years event.

This years First Friday Funday will be held at the new New Berlin BW3. Festivities start at 11am. Heres John's recap of the history of the event....

Previous venues in this 16 year history of First Friday include:

Major Goolsby's-Chirs Leinon & I went their for lunch the first time; noted
all the guys not leaving after lunch and we hunkered in for the night. Koko
later joined us. Chris and I have been in every year since....Dan has
joined us most of them. Hosts of people filter in and out

Luke's Sports Spectacular followed after that for the next 10 years. At one
point Dan and I, after one of these episodes, lifted a 300lb. bar from our
apartment basement to the family room for no other reason than we were
drunk.

Champs Brookfield had been the location the last five years but the screen
location sucked. Personal highlight here was attending a custody hearing
for Noelle when the birth mom gave up her parental rights. 20 minutes after
that, Julie and Noelle were home and I was on my way to Champs to get
liquored up.

BW3's offers a new start and a place to crash within walking distance.
