OT: How hard do you Yard?

14

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
WoMano

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.
 
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).

"A drink"?? :eek:
 
9 without ever having met any of the creeps on here in real life.

Speaking of, if anyone has ever met chief in real life they get a 2x bonus.
 
So like 25-ish,

I guess that's why they pay you the big bucks.
 
Shut up, Dove... makes 3. Casual as it gets, but willing to work on it.

ETA: @Dove ... I don't know the guy, but it's only right...

Score is a 4. And not supporting this Deepster-sponsored abuse of Dove when he can't even handle being abused in Hartford.
