So we ended up at Bonner’s Irish Pub, a classic Philly dive'ish bar at 23rd and Sansom, after the game last night and… honestly, it was pretty terrific. Got a great turnout of about 15. (Although, we probably could have used a few more hipsters.)The featured beverage of the evening was one of the Philadelphia Brewing Company’s new brews, draft pitchers of Walt Wit, right. (After all, gptmc has to support our local companies whenever possible, right?)
Good jukebox’ing by Rawle, Ashlie et al. Even decent pub grub like mozz sticks, chicken fingers, wings and delicious cheez whiz (which came with a side of fries).
Overall, a great prelude to the season to come.
So about next week… the early forecast is: 60 degrees and sexy.
Not gonna break out the BBQ just yet — but have no fear — in-game food and beverage service will continue to improve with age.
And a Wednesday game means an even more festive post-game dilly.
So start getting mentally psyched: one week from today is GPTMC Hammer-Time Part Deux.
And having a great time is just as important as winning. I’m here to facilitate the former.
In consideration for next week post-victory rendezvous spot: Bonner’s (again), Bishop’s Collar, Chaucer’s, Locust Bar, Westy’s, Ten Stone and your suggestions… just toss them in the comment section, yo.
Ok, so I guess that covers it.
Stay tuned for more updates to come from your humble Team Beverage (and Catering) Director.
See you out there.

Bonner's was a great spot. There was really no one else there, which was fortunate because we were a smelly group.
good food? i beg to dif.
i mean, at the time it was good, but now, 24 hours later, i'm in pain, man.
fried bar food=lead weight in my tum.
i can't do this once a week.
my body is a temple.
And my body is a nittany lion.
Kidding.
Also, our bev director has high hopes for this blog, as indicated by his use of tags to help people search.
i especially like the tag "generally being awesome". no doubt, most of my posts will fall under this tag...
my entire life falls under that tag.
i know you wouldnt be able to tell by how much of it i shoved in my face... but i also give bonners food a thumbs down.
what the hell do you think is going on in their 16 formal dining rooms??
I would like to recommend TJ Flannery's. It looks cool. My french onion soup was delish, but the poppers were nastola.
