Daizey 0 #1 May 2, 2004 hmm so, what do you guys think? First solo, first off dz landing (though technically i still landed at the airport), and first time landing in a tree (and managing not even to get a single scratch).....many important lessons learned, and 3 guys who helped my poor canopy get free from the tree (the tree decided to free me on its own....thank god for PLF's), as well as a whole lotta laughs later on...oh it was also my first time having to clean out my helmet before putting it back on (i figured all those leaves and twigs i found in it wouldn't be so comfortable) I'm thinking that equals a whole lotta beer....I'm also thinking that being under 21 and being not able to buy it saved me a whole lotta money today *daizey* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimbo 0 #2 May 2, 2004 QuoteI'm also thinking that being under 21 and being not able to buy it saved me a whole lotta money today Hey hey hey! Age is no excuse. There are plenty of folks on the DZ who will be happy to take your money and drink your beer. Pay up, little lady! - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

jumpergirl 0 #11 May 2, 2004 Quoteyeah, but if she has more than like 3 drinks she will be hard to talk to.....make sure she gives the beer (or other tastey drink) out and doesn't drink it herself.... Having been with Kristi when she's been drinking, I must second that. Even if she does end up drinking some though, it won't be enough to make much of a dent. She'll be sitting on the ground drunk-dialing people before you know what happened! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have been throwing money in for "beer calls" at Byron,... but I have this feeling that it's not enough. _______________________________________________ My mind is like a parachute...it functions only when open.

Bolas 5 #22 May 3, 2004 QuoteGotta love that rule Don't let anyone tell ya you owe more then one case.. damn beer nazi's! Nope, the rule is for every first, no limit of one case per jump. This allows for the infinite beer situation. All you need is a very rich and stupid first jumper. Here's how it goes: You: Hey, was that your first jump? Them: Yup You: That's beer!!! Them: OK You: Hey, was that your first time buying beer for skydiving? Them: Yup You: Beer!!!, Was that your first time buying beer for buying beer? Them: .... You: Beer!!!, Was that your first time buying beer for buying beer for buying beer? Continue the sequence until they catch on or are out of money. Then drink with them, provide them a place to stay, and show them boobies... Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

catfishhunter 2 #23 May 3, 2004 Taken from the Beer ruleshttp://crw.boxofclue.com/skydive/beer_rules.html Quote4. It is a sad fact that some skydivers are ignorant of what constitutes a significant achievement (usually and henceforth referred to as a "first"). Equally sad is the fact that some unscrupulously thirsty jumpers will shamelessly try to "weasel" a case of beer out of a jumper for an inauspicious event. Quote7. If more than one first is accomplished on a single jump, only one case of beer is required Quote 9. Non-drinkers may buy sodas and buyers may make up any part or whole of their purchase in soda for the enjoyment of those non-drinkers. I have 2 years 3 months Clean. I buy Root Beer Floats or O'Douls (non-alcoholic) For "Firsts" but I did buy "Green Bottles" for those that jumped with me on my 100th... Only time I buy REAL Beer is when it is a "Green Bottle" Worthy First MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have. We must live life to the fullest EVERY DAY. Everything we do should have a greater purpose. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
velvetjo 0 #24 May 5, 2004 Aren't beer rules DZ-specific? Besides, weaseling beer is a worthy hobby. Glad to hear you weren't hurt, Daizey! Rumor had it you were spotting wild turkeys for Sal. Lance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
