(social, not shooting outing)
How's March 11th, 12th, 25th or 26th sound?

Since Buffalo Range opens up on the 31st of March, why not celebrate early with -- Buffalo wings of course!

And what better place than HOOTER'S of Downers Grove - 1303 Butterfield Rd.

From the west, take I-88 E/B to I-355 North, then follow below directions:

From north or south, take I-355, exit Butterfield Rd & drive east about half a mile, it's on your right.

From Chicago, take I-88 west, exit @ Highland Rd turn right onto Highland than make an immediate left onto Butterfield. Up about half a mile on your left.




edit: The vote's showing the 11th is the day most can make it. Let's shoot for 7:00 and see how long it takes to get a table. Try to post here earlier in the day that day if you're going so whoever gets there first knows how many people to list for a table.

Wow nice results.   My little girl's 4Th . B- Day party is on the 11TH , @ 4 P.M.  

Her B-Day is on the 7TH.   We will have a small party for then, we are working around every one else's  schedule and going with the party and so it's the 11Th.   It has changed 4 times already.

Your all invited to eat cake , hell ,  My wife told me to invite ya over on the 18Th.   I was feeling a little bit kicked in the nuts though.    I am still eating chili,   .   I have a heated garage too.

Also have outdoor plumbing = Big field.
1/2 hour on the back roads to my place from the range.  faster if your a Leo , or know where where your going.

oh whoops i misread that...i thought we were going to buffalo range that day too but eatin at hooters b4 that....and actually after confirming with my g/f i have been to that hooters a few times....right outside of lombard.....well then if you don't mind my g/f loves hooters and would love to come along...no i'm not pussy whipped....but since i would initially be there to see her i would feel like an ass for not inviting her.....and when i said it might be hard to talk her into coming.... iwas talking about the range....it's not so much that she hates firearms....cuz she knows that when peacekeeping they may one day save my life but she just doesnt like the fact they they may also some day be the cause of my death....but she is getting better and i've almost talked her into shooting....hope to see you all there..............oh and i'm up for a get together like this in the champaign bloomington area if ne one else is up to it

I had a really good time last night. Much better than sitting at home on here! Very good meeting all of you. We should do it again.

I have never been to Hooters before and gotta say those were without a doubt the worst wings I have ever had!!!
Atmosphere was nice though.

Definitely, we should make this a regular thing.  Tuesday nights are best for me, but I know you guys can't do it in the middle of the week.

Buffalo wild wings has better wings, and women that are just as good looking, they just have more clothes on.

35 cent wings on tuesdays, too...

I don't know about you guys, but those wings last night weren't up to par for hooters.  Usually they're better.
