Peculiar occurrence whilst walking back to the Bridge Car Park yesterday

[Norman Potting]

Gentleman was carrying a full case of beer on his shoulder (Moretti I think it had printed on the side) from the ground to the car park.

Why?

WOW!

 

[The Brighton Bear]

Raffle winner?

 

[Garage_Doors]

Did you see him leave the ground with it?

 

[Notters]

I'm gonna go with student.

 

[LamieRobertson]

I'm gonna go with student.

Sounds a good shout...although they would normally be empties.

I'm gonna go with Simmo..he's never far from a drink

[LamieRobertson]

And there's the great man himself...thanks for sharing your booze last night

 

[Norman Potting]

I'm gonna go with student.

No, he was a gentleman of more advanced years (suppose he could be a mature student), possibly even older than I.

Why?

Sounds like it could have been an Italian yokel. I hope you follow this one up and let us all know the story when you eventually unravel it.

 

[fat old seagull]

I'm gonna go with student.

Seems like a good idea, can you find one for me too?

Why?

It was Gazza still trying to make his way home from the Lazio friendly. He had misplaced his fishing rod and bucket of fried chicken.

Gent A brings back a case of bog standard "premium Italian lager" via Euro Tunnel on behalf of Gent B. Both agree to meet and park at the Amex, where said bargain beer is exchanged in the car park. A cheaper than in the shops transaction

Good theory but it was after the game and he was walking from the ground to the car park with it. A case for Roy Grace to consider I feel.

 

[oxymoron]

We don't need Roy Grace, a fella I got chatting to yesterday a Liverpool fan, told me about his luck the night before, were out of the blue he was offers a ticket to the game decided to check out the stadium
And spent a pound on a lounge raffle, the rest as they say is history, suffice to say he was enjoying the beverage last night.��

Gent A, being a 1901er, has a parking permit for Bennett's Field. Gent B has no such permit and bought a single parking permit for the Bridge car park. Gent A had decided to partake of hospitality in the newly-opened HB's restaurant, so arrived at the ground a full two hours before Gent B; hence they decided to meet to effect the handover of said beverages after the game, rather than before. I rest my case, m'lud.

I rest my case, m'lud.

Not surprised. Must be quite heavy LUGGING a case of beer on your shoulder.
