I am having one heck of a time finding a restaurant with good reviews around the Foxboro/Mansfield area for dinner tomorrow night.
Any suggestions?

People at work think its crazy that we're going to start tailgating around 11 AM on Saturday through 8 PM. They think we're nuts.... rookies.

If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
Life is short, live long!!
I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

The map says there are 334 seats left and almost every seats in the last 5 rows of section 14 is available. If that stays like that it will be odd to see that many empty seats.
Can you imagine how bad sales would have been of there was a Thursday show too?

Re: Who's Going to Great Woods 6/23/12 ?
I'm hungry now after reading Dave's posts.
And I'm thirsty. No wonder, no A/C here in our room
But it's nice to see things develop here!
So I'd say:
Flashlight 1: check
Flashlight 2: check
Flashlight with rubber band to put on one's forehead: check
That Beach Bonfire thingie sounds beautyful!
See y'all tomorrow afternoon at RR!

There is also a good Thai place (Bancock Cafe) in the plaza that is right by the intersection of 140 and Forbes Rd.

Dave wants to know when you're arriving. He says you need to arrive early so he's sober enough for a conversation with J&J!!!

Clyde's BBQ. Route 1. Thank me later. It don't look like much . . . but the food is good and the beer is cheap. About 1.5 miles North of Foxboro up Route 1.

Not a Hotel but a Hostel.MacPhin wrote:Love the flashlight preparedness! I totally spaced that I gave Dave one of those headband flashlight thingies. Too late now, we're at the Cape house.
Mike what hotel are you in that there isn't any a/c???
It's called the 40Berkeley Hostel. Cheap, clean and fun, exactly what we needed for three nights.
Big plus: 10 minutes walk to Copley Square or Boston Common, so pretty central for what we pay, about 90$ a night. Cheap for Boston!
Oh, and we always make sure we got enough flashlights when we go out camping!
(Reminds me, flashlights need batteries...)
