The Sol Bar: New Zealand Cricket Randomness

[HeathDavisSpeed]

I don't like Sol that much.

I definitely agree, but after 4 days of Tui, it was a blessed relief.

 

[hendrix]

Well, there's that and also the fact you don't need a food/beverage outlet at every aisle and that most of the food is from external franchisees.

making it not more expensive?

I don't like Sol that much.

it's better than Tui though.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

I don't like Sol that much.

Obviously you've never had Tui.

For whom? You get a hell pizza at the Basin for less than an anaemic chicken burger at the Westpac? Not sure that's your point though.

 

[Dan]

Yeah, I was massively impressed with the food/non-alcoholic drink on offer at the Basin. Orders of magnitude better than anything I've seen offered in Australia, at a far better price.

 

[uvelocity]

forgot about hell pizza. quality.

 

[Riggins]

is this what i'm after?

[Dan]

Nah, not the blond. That makes regular Tui look great, apparently. This is the stuff:

Fill a balloon with the spirit of your choice, with a tied off little plastic tube in the end, then stuff it down your undies. Then when you need a drink just unzip your fly and you're good to go.
People will think you're peeing in a cup and drinking it, but most people have seen worse at the cricket. Just tell them it tastes better than Tui and they'll understand.

As an added bonus, all the ladies will be impressed by the large bulge in your pants.

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

The match thread is a pile of ****, so if anyone feels inclined to discuss cricket civilly, then the Sol Bar is open and the barman is willing to pour you a pint in which to drown your tears.

 

[Hurricane]

Before I frequent this establishment I want a full retraction of any dispersions made about Tui beer.

 

[Athlai]

What an odd thing to say.

 

[Flem274*]

tui is ****e, but it's our ****e

 

[hendrix]

Ranfurly all day.

 

[hendrix]

man, that McCullum/Astle back foot cover drive is so McCullum/Astle.

I'll give you some Cistercians if you promise no monkey business. I'm also happy to hand you some Nasturtiums if you're not Brassic lint.

Is that good ol' Flem at the non-striker's end?
