SHRIMP BOIL (BOWL) V or, Dinner on the grounds...
G.M. Andrews, Photographer
Mobile | AL | USA | Posted: 6:31 PM on 11.26.08
->> Yes, dear friends, it's that time of year again, when species indigenous to Africa and the Indian subcontinent do battle on the gridirons of North America.

But who cares about that?

IT'S SHRIMP BOIL TIME IN ALABAMA!

Yes, Club Gump invites all those shooters lucky enough to cover the Auburn-Alabama tilt in Tuscaloosa to a intimate gathering outside Byrant-Denny Stadium with several hundred unlucky crustaceans, a large pot of boiling and highly seasoned water, vegetables, and all the comraderie you can handle after spending hours in the edit room cursing about ref-ass and out of focus pictures with the same people.

Dave Martin, John Reed, and yours truly will be having a little get together apres'-Iron Bowl, wherever we can safely ignite propane without fear of arson charges. Details to come (read: talk to us in the Mirror Room).

Sportsshooter membership not necessary, but appreciated.

BYOB

Ta for now -

PS - Club Gump Minister for Foreign Affairs J.D. Mercer will be on a diplomatic mission to the other T-Town (Tallahassee) and will not be in attendance. Good luck getting shrimp there, bud.

->> Since I will be on a diplomatic summit with Foreign Affairs Minister J.D. Mercer to the other side(T-Town in the eastern time zone), do you reckon I could talk him into buying shrimp after our excursion?

I know it can't compare to yours or Mullets(he does the best mudbugs), but I would still like to participate, even if I can't be there.
