OT: How hard do you Yard?

I'll be the first person to admit I got a big fat 0. I think never winning a Bronze filigree award hurts the most.

I also got a big fat zero and, to put you above me here at the bottom of the rankings, I don't even know what a bronze filigree is. :(

Yes I contributed to the main Senhor Testiculo thread.

By contributed, do you mean threatened to shutdown?

Actually I know your largess on that thread was a hassle for you and probably cost you money. Still well worth it for the mojo.

I have to think about the ten names. Fishy, Deepster, Swami (does he count), AugustWest, Pepband99, SportsArt, palatine, whaler11 (only because he posted it in a thread at one point), nomar, calluke, CitrusDog, HuskyNan. I'm sure there are others . . .

there are like 4 guys with mike or matt in their handle...
 
I'm old and scored a 0. Oh well. I would fly in to golf if there was another BYC. I've eaten wings during a game but that was because I like to eat wings. I was on the Courant chat that Dom Amore used to host. I went up to him courtside and introduced myself when he was out here for a UConn/DePaul game. That chat ceased to exist not long after that. Hmm. I'm going to give myself three 1/2 pts for a revised total of 1 1/2. Not too shabby.

Inspired by those Facebook posts that count how many states you’ve visited or what weird foods you’ve tried, here is a list of historical Yard items to show just how big a Yarder you really are.

Unless indicated otherwise, give yourself 1 point for every item you know or have accomplished. Maximum of 28 pts available.
  • I used to go on the Hartford Courant UConn message board “The Husky Howl”.
  • I used to go on the bball.com UConn/umass rivalry message board.
  • I have attended a BYC. Add an additional bonus point if you were on a winning team.
  • I attended the Boneyard football tailgate at Memorial Stadium.
  • I still have a 77-74 sticker.
  • I donated to Coach Calhoun’s retirement present (heart pump for UConn Med Ctr).
  • I know who Oklahoma Eric is.
  • I have read a post written by jAcKSoN.
  • I contributed to the main Senhor Testiculo thread.
  • I have met Fishy or Tom.
  • I have eaten a chicken wing or drank a Rolling Rock solely for good Mojo on a gaemday.
  • I have read (by your best estimate) at least 95% of the Pizza thread.
  • I know who Dr. Dos is. Add an additional 2 pts if you received a Bronze filigree award from him.
  • I have replied “Shut up, Dove” at least once.
  • I have received a sentence from Judge Deepster and been hung by Hangman Swami.
  • I have replied with a “Dooooooomed!” at least once.
  • I know who Leticia Basketballdridge is.
  • I have been in the chat room for an entire game.
  • I have a piece of clothing with “Boneyard” on it somewhere – Tshirt, hat, hoodie.
  • I know the real first names of 10 or more current Yarders. Tom does not count as one.
  • I read the infamous MakersMuppet post at the original time it was posted.
  • I know who RabidHusky is.
  • I have had a drink with Mauconnfan.
  • I have met up with a Yarder that I’d never met before at a NYC bar during the Big East Tournament.
  • I posted something on the Yard on 3/29/1999 (77-74).

I'm not sure if I've had a drink with mauconnfan at one of the BYCs but since I can't remember I didn't give myself a point.

I wasn't around here until right after the 2001-2002 season so I didn't get any points for things before that time.
 
My nickname is Mano, my actual name is

What about the "Feast & Rout" when someone (Was it Nomar?) won an auction for a block of seats for a home game at the Civic Center? Game was so good I have no recollection of who we played. Or when it was. I thought it was Brown, but I don't think we ever played them in Hartford. Maybe Wagner? It was somebody inconsequential.
