BUT BUT BUT IT'S WEST OF DOWNTOWN PHILLY zOMG THIS IS AN OUTRAGE

NeonBrown82		2012-09-14 12:57:16 AM

No outrage here. Just saying... West O is full of cornhusking coonts. It was just a suggestion. Smell you later, homes.

We need more Fark Party threads on the main page

Its a three hour drive for me from KC, and I'm pretty sure childcare won't be provided.

Wish someone would host one here..

/not me
//too lazy

I was just gonna say...I'm in KC too. Guess I better take what I can get, cause I seriously doubt anyone here is ever going to host a party. I know there are a couple of KC Farkers who go out to dinner every so often. But that doesn't count.

Anyway! How late can one buy booze in NE? Are there ghey bars in this "west omaha" place? Does anyone else from KC want to carpool?

Contrabulous Flabtraption		2012-09-15 09:41:36 PM

Damn will miss by ten days

iivel		2012-09-15 09:42:11 PM

Lava Lamp Repairman: Mike: Hmmm, that's what, 12 hours out? Maaaaybe

DO EEEET!!

Omaha's pretty decent - lots of good places to eat and drink! But as a first timer you're obligated to visit the zoo and Ak-Sar-Ben...apparently those are the rules...

And Huber-Haus ... at least I always end up there when I'm in town. Making a trip next week ... bet it will happen again.

vento		2012-09-15 09:51:13 PM

Upstream rules. Was there when I was in Omaha a couple years ago during a trip across the country. Had some incredible beer, a great steak and bought a growler and some glasses.

Do you guys wanna throw in one more Fark party reminder link for good measure?

CraicBaby		2012-09-15 10:39:28 PM

fisker: Do you guys wanna throw in one more Fark party reminder link for good measure?

I think it's an automated thing or something that re-greens them every so often.

Party threads get automatically bumped by a bot at specific intervals before the party (12 hours, 1 day, 1 week, 2 weeks etc). It's random chance that two parties are next weekend and two more the weekend after. Simmah dn na. :)

Spaztictacular		2012-09-15 10:46:00 PM

Count me in!

Spaztictacular		2012-09-15 10:49:42 PM

Ah balls. I won't be in town for it - my cousin is getting married. Anyone up for a Sunday after-party?

EvilVanMan		2012-09-15 11:12:16 PM

Well, I'm one of the guys that basically lives at that particular upstream location, so I suppose I'll go.

Allansfirebird		2012-09-15 11:20:24 PM

Glad to see a Fark Party is happening in my hometown. I've never been to one before.

tehbeermang		2012-09-16 12:20:32 AM

As someone who used to live in West Omaha (graduated from Burke High School, even) I am getting a huge kick out of these replies.

Only four reasons to head east of 72nd if you live west of it:

1. Zoo
2. Airport
3. Courthouses
4. Main library

Because Crescent moon is not on that list, I know you suck.

andyofne		2012-09-16 01:28:06 AM

One Bad Apple: One for certain and I might bring 2 more with me.

The last time we had one of these at this location it was just me and one other farker. I suppose I'll show up again and laugh when he's the only one... again.

Go Omaha!

andyofne		2012-09-16 01:33:33 AM

Beerinator: Oddly enough, the Upstream is 12 minutes away from my house. Lucky number 12. See you there.

Now that I've actually read the headline and thread, this isn't the Upstream we had the "party" at... we were down in the Old Market, which really ain't so bad as that other fellow says. On the other hand... it is still Omaha.

/closer to my house though, so that's good.

Dundee, things at the Qwest (Clink), downtown, the UNO Library, Benson...

tarheel07		2012-09-16 02:26:01 AM

I miss living in Dundee. Of course there's a Fark Party once I move out of Omaha. Y'all have a good time.

attention span of a retarded fruit fly		2012-09-16 02:27:33 AM

But remember to visit Lincoln and the new 7m dollar drainage ditch if you can. In the bad neighborhood, near downtown, where they want people to walk from to eat lunch.

/great toilet for the homeless

vice_magnet		2012-09-16 03:24:52 AM

I'm leaving in the morning out of OMA. Who knows, I may make an appearance to display my excellence.

Crescent Moon is farking awesome. Love their twice-baked potato soup. Also where I discovered Shiner Bock, one of my favorite beers.

Klom Dark		2012-09-20 03:09:27 PM

Decisions, decisions. I work about three blocks from the West Omaha Upstream. But I live about five blocks from the Old Market Upstream. Dunno if I want to drive all the way home, then all the way back. Hmmmm...

Anyone going there right after work rather than waiting til 7?

Klom Dark		2012-09-20 03:11:34 PM

Oh wait, this month is not October. I was really going to be disappointed if I went tonight... Duh... :)

gorbishof		2012-09-20 06:05:52 PM

I'd go.. but you all look rough. For internet people....

Mr. Murder		2012-09-20 08:01:45 PM

I heard there were gonna be sluts at this thing. Is it true?

AeroSquid		2012-09-20 08:03:45 PM

Venice Inn is mediocre for what it's hyped to be. Sadly, my grandfather loves the damn place, and is friends with the owner. So a lot of family gatherings are held there.

I dunno. Are you going to be there? ;)

CraicBaby		2012-09-20 08:58:08 PM

Also, I should mention that tehre is a chance Drew might be there.

LIES! ALL LIES!

One Bad Apple		2012-09-20 09:08:42 PM

Yeah you're better off promising sluts than Drew himself to pad out the attendance

Omahawg		2012-09-20 09:08:53 PM

meh, i want a hunk of dead bloody cow and a baked potato venice inn is decent for the price although their liver pate is a poor imitation of the old 64 Club.

all in all piccolo's is a better choice, if only for the disco ball.

I forgot
the South 24th DAV and Joe Tess

Rudy Sfarzo (?) used to be Joe's carp cook but they got into an argument one night so Rudy walked and opened up his own place. Since my grandpa was one of Rudy's drinking bud's that where we always went went when I was growing up.

ah, nothing like that slice o' rye bread on the bottom that's soaked up all the pickle juice and carp grease. nom nom nom nom

No, seriously, I emailed him and he said he has to see how October shapes up, but he's considering it. So, there is a slight chance Drew might be there. I'm not promising anything, though.

I'm sure I can. I work around 144th and West Center so it's not far to go.

I hope you're there. I heard nice things about you today.

Well, you missed a retirement party for one of the regulars, and I hear that they will have an Oktoberfest party in October, despite how many times I've said that Oktoberfest is in September.

CraicBaby		2012-09-20 10:45:45 PM

No one is scared to go downtown. The West O one is simply bigger and has fewer parking issues than downtown.
