Isle picked me up to drive us to Düsseldorf. But first we had to pick
up Ralph at Schiphol. Amazing car drive to Düsseldorf almost nothing
went wrong untill the moment my phone was ringing and I still have no idea
how it was calling me (hope it was not important).
We arrived at 21:00 clock in Düsseldorf and we booked our rooms at the Ibis hotel. Small problem there are only two so ofcourse I picked the wrong one. After checking in we had some beers and took a cab to Altstad. Since the rest was still having diner and they did not have diner in Knoten we get lost and so John was so nice to pick us up. After the rest finished their diner we moved our asses to Knoten for some real fun. We drinked as much Schlösser Alt as possible, exchanged some good stories and drinked more Schlösser Alt. Around 3 a.m. we decided it might be a good idea to go to bed and prepare us for the real party: Boppard 2002.
Saturday morning I was so happy that everyone
was trying to call me so I was awake on time. I felt like hell, looked
like hell and was still drunk from the night before.
After a small breakfast (coca cola and
orange juice) we entered the bus that was bringing us to Boppard. Around
9:40 I was drinking my first Schlösser Alt of the day. Arrived at
Boppard we noticed that all NFL Europe teams were represented, some Fire
and Galaxy fans, 8 Monarchs, 7 Admirals, 3 Dragons, 1 Claymores and Thunder
fan. After drinking more Schlösser, some food and a couple of photo
sessions we took the boat tour. After we returned back from the boat tour
Montse and I decided that we would call everyone that was listed in my
phone book (my phone company is now very happy). After some small shopping
at the local NFL merchandise shop we took around midnight the bus back
to Düsseldorf. As usually everyone felt in sleep except for the trained
Triple ’A’ people. After we arrived back in Düsseldorf we decided
to go back to the hotel and have some sleep instead of the original plan
of going to Knoten. Have to make my apologize to Bron since I promised
to her that I would drink all the Schlösser Alt at Knoten. Arrived
in the Hotel we decided to take another beer before going to sleep.
On Sunday I took back the train to Amsterdam since Ralph and Ilse were staying in Düsseldorf. Arrived home around 16:00 changed clothes and took a shower and moved my ass in the direction of the Globe to watch some NFL games. When I arrived in the Globe I was almost sober so a really needed a beer. My original plan was going home after the first game, but as usually I took the last train home. Went to my bed around 2 am. Some game facts: Play of the weekend: Montse
tried to say on the phone: I am sober but said: I am sorbed (New NFLE word
for sober).
