    Agreed. I'd had a blast meeting everyone and watching Steven talk about beating up Austrians.

    I wasn't there and cannot fully appreciate the level of effort required to pull off an Eggfest (especially one of such popularity and noteriety) but many thanks to @Mickey and @Spring_Chicken and many others who put in the time and effort to make it happen.  Some day I will make it...enjoy recovery day!!

    It was greatness. Political correctness flew out the window early. My sides and face hurt from Laughing so hard. For those who skipped the after party, I don't know what you did but we won :D

    Many thanks to @Mickey and @Spring_Chicken,  Keith's Hardware and others for a super great time. As usual, Will, et al, at the Inn were absolutely wonderful. Cannot wait for March 2015.

    Mickey - I don't know how you convince the village elders to let a bunch of drunks invade your sweet village every year.. but please keep doing it. I haven't made it to any other eggfest but I've been to Salado twice. You set the bar high and I'm afraid of being disappointed. 

    Thanks to Mickey and Mr Chicken for organizing. It was an absolute blast to hang out with friends new and old, cook, drink, and generally be merry. 

    But next year, @henapple needs a leash and muzzle before being allowed in public.

    Thanks @caliking. But I thought the electric ankle bracelet this year would do it. My bad, will do better next year my friend.
