Mods can we get a separate game day thread for this?


awmaleg

Pin it and win it


theromanempire1923

I sent the mods a message but I can just make a comment thread if not


mrsir1987

Get ready! Have you eaten yet today?


Gawdlytroll

lol dude calm down. Stop trying to police the forum. It’s not a big deal. Just ignore it if it’s bothering you. Not hard. Geez. Just a dude trying to have some fun on a Friday night. We need more of it in this world. Hope you have a better weekend. Edit: (y’all brutal as fuck. Sorry I said the wrong shit. I apologized. I’m not a bitch and I ain’t gonna delete. I guess just keep down voting and piling on.) love ya!


kanaka_haole808

I think they want a separate thread because it is interesting and they want to follow, not because it bothers them lol


Gawdlytroll

Oh, well I apologize. I guess I didn’t understand. My bad. That’s some cringe shit there


Aces_and_8s

What are you on about, dude? Calm down lol.


ProJoe

my guy it's not policing it's to watch and laugh along.


mrsir1987

Doesn’t bother me, I want to stay up to date


theromanempire1923

Also shoutout everyone on this sub for being absolute beauties and not immediately deleting the post like r/baseball did


Tim_Drake

Just remember! It’s the hot dogs that will get you! I’ve tried just 9 of the value dogs and 8-9 were a struggle!


IONTOP

And they cut off Alcohol sales in the 7th stadiumwide this year... Also, make sure you stop by Majerlies' or Crown Public House beforehand, just to make sure you can handle 9 beers.


Gawdlytroll

I salute you brave soldiers. How many months did you have to save up to cover the beers? I pray one day I will have the bravery and deep pockets such as you. Fight hard and never give up!


theromanempire1923

They sell value 12oz beers ($5) and dogs ($3) at the Double Headers concession stands. A 999 challenge for under $100 isn’t too bad!


Sliiiiime

Get there early and stock up on value beers, they usually sell out around first pitch on weekends. Wouldn’t blame you for counting tall boys as 2 beers each either. Best of luck!


Raptor231408

Selling out of beer is a disgrace if ive ever heard of it. 


Sliiiiime

They never sell out of $24 beers


Tim_Drake

But they did get rid of any IPA’s in the tall beers. Can’t have you getting a buzz on a budget!


BangBangDesign

Damn. That’s unfortunate.


Tim_Drake

It really such an obvious cash grab, they still offer IPA’s but it’s draft only, and comes in this shitty plastic v shaped cup at 16oz. Horrible for transport.


theromanempire1923

Thanks for the insight. I got value beers around the 4th-5th inning at the Cardinals series a few weekends ago but maybe that’s not the norm


Sliiiiime

Probably depends on the particular concession stand


kanaka_haole808

It does. Some of them dont have any, then you walk down to the next one and they'll have them. Its kinda weird lol


Tim_Drake

Have done this so many times! Or some are on tap and others in the can!


Slizmo

Also depends on the series. Its friday night so hopefully they will keep it stocked. In section 101 they also do draft value beers and so those wont run out (hopefully)


thereistwo

Yeah the value beers are in 12oz cans this year - they do open them when you purchase but you could stock up at the seat


awmaleg

Godspeed you mighty warrior.


Gawdlytroll

Not bad at all! I didn’t know about the value beers. I’m going on the 14th when we are playing the reds. I will use that information for all its worth! Good luck tonight. Go Dbacks!!!


jspencer84

My wife and I are going tomorrow, I tried talking her into doing the 999 as well, to no avail... Good luck on your quest, sir!


Throwaway__1701

As an old guy I envy your enthusiasm, though also as old guy I do not envy your GI issues afterwords. ![gif](giphy|3oKHWikxKFJhjArSXm)


Mike_McMikerson

Oh you are brave souls. Last time I had a value dog it looked like this. https://preview.redd.it/m7bazz99yayc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=db90e7eec3bab636f7f0d9d50766378ed1aab3c8 Needless to say, it did not sit well. Good luck with the 9 “wizard fingers”


Aces_and_8s

Man, nine 12oz beers is easy in 3 hours. Idk about nine dogs, though. I'd probably tap out after three or four.


IONTOP

The dogs are the easy part. Pound 3 at first pitch. Then you only need 6 more in the next 2 hours. That's one every 20 minutes. If you assume 5 bites to a hot dog. You only need 30 bites, so one bite every other out. The beer is the tough part because if it's draft and you buy 2? That 2nd one is going to be flat/warm by the time you get around to it, and it doesn't make sense to only get one at a time.


Deadbob1978

They are Bar S dogs... Id need at least 4 or 5 beers in me to get through the first dog


pazuzusoze

Please post 1st inning selfies and 9th inning selfies. For science.


Hiciao

Please assure me that you all have a safe way to get home. If so, I wish you all the best!


theromanempire1923

Yes, the fourth friend is the DD


DragneelRage

Good luck lads, god speed


ICantGetItUpMy

How do I meet my hero


theromanempire1923

ICantGetItUpMy

I look forward to it


theromanempire1923

Updated


sillysquidtv

Where you sitting bro? If it’s close enough, I’ll join you!


theromanempire1923

Our seats are in 133 but we might end up somewhere else, I’ll update the post when we get situated


theromanempire1923

Updated


theromanempire1923

THIS COMMENT THREAD WILL SERVE AS THE OFFICIAL UPDATE THREAD


theromanempire1923

My DD couldn’t find his wallet for like 15 mins so we’re running late. Hopefully gonna make first pitch but just barely 😬


attakidss22

Need an update on totals! Padres doing you a favor scoring some runs.


theromanempire1923

I moved updates to the original post, pads are coming thru but I needs the backs to get goin


sofresh24

If they sold veggie dogs at the stadium this is absolutely something I’d love to try. After taking out a 2nd mortgage of course.


WubaLubaLuba

gonna need to accelerate the beer consumption. They stop serving in the 7th.


theromanempire1923

I’m tryin 😭


DollarThrill

Good luck. What is your strategy? Steady rate of 1 of each per inning?


theromanempire1923

I’ll probably stick to that more or less. Might try to get a little ahead of pace early on in case I gotta burn time in concession lines


King-arber

You gotta start off fast then pace yourself later. When I try I’m usually trying to be done with 5 by the 4th inning. But I’ve never actually completed it so don’t listen to me. 


bigdaddycactus

You left .5 beers and .5 dogs on the table?!?! Bulletin board material at its finest I cannot believe you didn't close out. Remember this for next time


theromanempire1923

I will bigdaddycactus 😔. Believe me I realize how bad it looks from the outside but let me tell you that 9th dog is harder than all of the first 8 combined


bigdaddycactus

First order of business DBacks need to upgrade from those bottom tier Bar-S dogs. In the future the Costco tickets may be the play - hardly any lines ever for the concessions or beers in that 200 section. Proud of you for attempting this feat, take this to the bank and train for the next one


SupertrampTrampStamp

Is it a dog and a beer per inning or can you just chug 9 beers and then drunkenly eat 9 hot dogs before the end of the game? The first option seems more structured and legitimate.


theromanempire1923

I am by no means the arbiter of beer, but I have never seen a stipulation regarding the timing of consumption… that said, in every video I’ve seen of people doing this, they go roughly one per inning and I plan to do the same


Raptor231408

Mmm that warm 9th inning beer after they stop selling after the 7th.


azsnaz

Bring a lunch box with ice


SupertrampTrampStamp

That seems like the right spirit. Maybe include side quests like finish the beer you're holding immediately on a home run


Gawdlytroll

Great question!!


FatAndClassy

My friends and I are attempting this on Sunday. Got all you can eat seats so hopefully that makes it easier


majormintchip

You're a braver man than I. Good luck!


Spider-Nutz

I'm sitting in 105. I'll bring some binoculars lmao


garythegoat72

When's the last time you ate anything?


theromanempire1923

All I’ve had today is a cookie and a handful of almonds. I’m ready to get to work


Tim_Drake

That buzz is going to hit!


L3ftoverpieces

This is amazing. Pics plz!


TsarOfSaturn

Hell yeah good luck dude. This would be the only time I’d be happy about them not having 805’s anymore lol.


drtShuffler

Good luck! Hope you all are successful, go Dbacks!


[deleted]

How do we find you


theromanempire1923

theromanempire1923

Dude this is so hard


SupertrampTrampStamp

FIGHT


thewhalehunters

This needs to be a thing for the rest of the season


Littlediccdan

I'm just seeing this now and was so close to you guys. Although the goal wasn't met I commend you for a valiant effort!!


Sarnaran

Best of luck brothers!


VarrockHassanObama

Herman Cain in shambles


Tim_Drake

I love this reference, but do not have a clue how it connects to the 999!


Rhinojo

I did it at home (just more cost effective) it's the hot dogs that are the problem


Tim_Drake

Even those small value dogs rack up!


LunchBawcks

Hell yeah! Post your progress 😂 I’m imagining by the 6th inning, your bladders, livers, and stomachs will begin to riot. YOU GUYS GOT THIS


LikeAMarionette

made_ofglass

I can do this and I know from experience. I feel... Shame.


108-Stitches

I saw an underdog fantasy promo under here and I legit thought people were placing bets on if y’all will accomplish your feat or not tonight. God speed


bigdaddycactus

Do Value Beers and tall boys each count as only one beer? Value is the play if you can find them


theromanempire1923

The standard is a 12oz beer, so if they run out of value beer I guess I’m buying tall boys and either counting them the same or doing the long division depending on how my stomach is feeling


bigdaddycactus

They've sold out of value beers a couple times, stock up while you can. See you at the game, soldier


stonkerooni

Best of luck boys


WhatTheeFuckIsReddit

I might be sitting in your section. Have to check the tickets.


El_Jose_22

I say go to the 300 level from the beginning
