If we bring them, people will join us. If only I had time to get out of the house and go shopping now. YOu can buy things of bubbles for like 4/$1 if you watch sales.

Yeah, and dollar stores usually have big ones for only a dollar too. They're cheap, cool, and it's not throwing stuff, come on guys, this could be cool...

Oh man. Please, not bubbles!!! I probably feel as vehemently against bubbles as Scholesy does about streamers, and for a much better reason - they're girlie! :yuck:

Okay. Aerick volunteers to buy the bubbles. Anybody else want to bring some?

Oh, I forgot to mention the coolest thing about bubbles. They stick around and float in the air for a while, so the effect lasts for more than two seconds!

Aerick what else do you suggest? This solution pleases everyone except the ego-tistical guys who think they're "girly". And Jules is right, bubbles will be like 10 times cheaper than streamers because streamers are like $1.50 each, and you only get to use them once, we can re-use bubbles.

Yeah, but they pose more of a danger to players than streamers! Imagine having one of those "innocent" bubbles pop in your face as you're streaming down the side of the field and you lose sight of your opponent directly in front of you and SLAM!!! You get carted off the field with a season-ending injury.

Yeah, you can see through bubbles, not well but well enough to know where people are. Streamers are WAY more-likely to injure a player.

Gosh, I don't know. The way he says it... we don't want to endanger the players with those hazardous chemicals and stuff... 😉

Bubbles! Bubbles! We want bubbles! We should just hand them out before the game to all the kids that come to the booth and let THEM blow them for us. THey wouldn't be too proud. They're just excited to have something "fun" to do during the moments that chicken isn't being given away.

Oh boy, I can't wait to hear what Scholesy says about bubbles. 🕺

No, I mean it pops in your face and you get the soap residue in your eyes. Then you're blinded for a few seconds. At a full speed run, that can't be good. :P

If we do go with bubbles, though, I'll make sure to buy myself one of those new pink Real shirts (extra small), and I'll print out a very large version of this picture and place it on a poster board with hearts all around it for the games:

Lol, yeah! We like the little kids, they're cute.
