it is amazing to me how people get so angry about going to a party with friends and family and get free food and alcohol



but but, I missed Leonard Fournette rush for 100 yards for the first time My life will never be the same

Like I said earlier, when I was 25, I got all pissy about this kind of stuff, but I've gotten older, had friends and family pass away, and I'll take any opportunity to get together with them.

well no, pretty sure it's mostly because of the weather

and I value my spring weekends, I certainly do not enjoy going to 5 weddings in a row during the spring

I assume this would be very close friend and/or close family members, right?

I would hope you would not bitch about missing a football game because of their wedding then...

and you allude to it right below that you don't think a football game is important


I think it is more that a football game is not THAT important. I mean, there are people in this thread pissed about bye week wedding because they want to watch Clemson-FSU or some shite. Seriously? Who gives a damn?

In fact, it is. Don't get mad at me that your logic is ridiculous.

quote:

I'm simply stating that if you put it during football season, there will likely be a conflict


There will always be a conflict for someone. Always.

quote:

so don't harbor any I'll feelings toward people when you ARE making them choose you or the game. Just be happy you are getting married and move on.


I never once said I was mad at anyone that chose to go to a game. Thanks for proving that you either aren't reading or don't comprehend what you read.

quote:

I mean shite if everyone thought like you and put their wedding in the fall, then you would miss every game because you prioritize other people over football?


And if everyone thought like you, I'd miss all sorts of shite every spring and summer. More dumb logic from you.

It actually has more to do with the weather, but whatever you say genius.

lol, no it is because of the weather. There aren't too many weddings in the South in the dead of summer. The weather in the South is why people have fall/late fall weddings.

right

We wanted to have an outdoor wedding, and logistics/scheduling conflicts meant we could not have a spring wedding, so we went with the fall.

But that makes me a narcissistic a-hole apparently

Of course not, but obviously you are forcing them to not watch a game. Like I said, its not the end of the world, but you can't be mad at someone for wishing they could watch the game. They would prefer your wedding, but would also like to watch the game. You schedule it during the summer and they get both.

Again, people will go, but nobody that reads the tiger rant can tell me that football isn't important to them. If you have 8 friends in your wedding, and you have it during a football game, are you signing up to go to 8 weddings during football season?

And let me clarify one thing I haven't, not all games are equal. Sec games are more important, and every wedding is different based on the relationship. If some guy that you know is a bitch with his soon to be wife, caves and has has wedding during and sec weekend, and you know he didn't put up a fight, then yea you will have more of a reason to get upset than scheduling during a cupcake.

You have said it at least three times now. Damn, go visit your family and friends right now if it is that important to you. You don't have to continually post the same thing. Nor do you have to wait for a wedding or funeral to see loved ones. They have a thing called Face Time where you can make video phone calls.

frick that noise. I would have been in shots and a t-shirt with one of those misting fans on me

If I want people to wear a suit, I am not having a wedding in 95 degree heat. Got married in late October during an LSU-Tulane game. Believe me, none of my family gave a shite and they've had season tickets for 40 years.

If people say "don't schedule during the Bama, Auburn, A&M, or Florida games" then I understand; but people bitching about missing some shite game or a freakin bye week is ridiculous.

Wedding have to be in taint season – taint hunting or fishing and football season happens to be covered by hunting season.
I missed a number of “friends” weddings over the yrs w/ this rule – now if I get blown out by the weather in the summer on a fishing weekend I have attended the wedding. It’s a last minute call and if I don’t get blown by the weather out my wife has gone to the wedding w/ friends/relatives

The other no no is a wedding on a long weekend…….. ya I really want to give up a 3 day weekend to attend a wedding

In the great white north a wedding during Stanley cup finals can also decrease attendance ……….

sure...

if they were in my wedding that means that are pretty close friends

I value celebrating life events with my friend over any football game...

would I miss some random cousins wedding for a football game? of course

but a close friend or brother? hell no

And they could miss something big in the summer. Where do you draw the line?

Sure, because I realize there are things in life more important than a game of football.

For the millionth time, this usually cannot be taken into account when booking things. How many dumb things do you plan on saying in this thread?
