I have been keeping track of my Inforoo Brooer's Tent beer bets in my signature, but the list is on the verge of being too large to keep track. This thread is intended to keep track of said beer bets, with this first post comprising the official tally. Catch me at the right time with the right proposal, and you could find yourself owing/owed a beer yourself...
Bonnaroo 2011 Beer Bets Currently owes: 3 Currently owed: 2 Currently TBD: 1 Double-Or-Nothing: -1/+1 (zeroed out)
1. Lost to Airline: Falcons 20, Packers 17 2. Lost to Stevet: TCU 21, Badgers 19 3. Won vs. Airline; Bet #1 Double-Or-Nothing: Packers 48, Falcons 21 4. Won vs. ncbst3; Super Bowl XLV: Packers 31, Steelers 25 5. TBD with baconus66: Lil Wayne (under/over) 30 minutes late for Bonnaroo set. 6. Lost vs. nodepression: Top Ten addition (yes/no) 7. Won vs. garageland: Bill Cosby comedy addition (yes/no) 8. Lost to LLL; was I lying in Mafia? (yes/no)
I can't believe you still have the addition thing as a TBD.
Artists subject to change, right? True, the first round of additions did not include one in the top ten. However, we still have thirty-some days until we know whether or not this is actually the case. While you would win if this bet ended today, it does not end today. It ends when the lineup is complete. For what it's worth, lineup additions have happened closer to the festival in past years than the time between now and this year's Roo. I'm probably going to owe you a beer over that, but it is not yet official.
I believe I already had current phone numbers for: baconus66 garageland ncbst3* nodepression
I have reached out to Stevet & LLL to get their phone numbers to fulfill bets are Bonnaroo. I do not necessarily need to contact Airline, because the royal ass-whooping the Packers put on the Falcons in the playoffs en route to winning the Super Bowl canceled out the beer I owe him.
Everyone who is mentioned in this post should either already have my number or have been recently contacted about swapping numbers. If this is not the case, let me know.
*ncbst3: I texted you with an opportunity to settle up at Coachella a day or two beforehand and never got a response. Yours shall be the most satisfying of any beer bets won or lost, so I absolutely have to make sure I have a way to reach you on the farm.

I bought fifty Brooers Festival tickets on Thursday and was down to nine left before I even settled my first bet ;D To those who say "C'mon, man! That's like six beers in a little over a day," I concur. I did a lot of what is colloquially referred to as "running back to camp to slam a couple" frequently over the weekend.
The first beer bet was settled with LLL before Shpongle, if memory serves me right. She was dressed as a funky human-unicorn hybrid. The beer was Abita Purple Haze. Saturday, I met up with Bacon before he went up into the Buffalo Springfield pit. He hadn't yet tried a Sweetwater Blue, so we both enjoyed one of them. Next up were nodepression and garageland in rapid succession. I bought nodepression a Sweetwater Blue since he was also unfamiliar; garageland gave me ten tickets because I spotted him a beer last year to boot. I purchased a full size Dos Perros and a sample size Hefeweizen from Yazoo.
I met Steve at the brunch, later found out I didn't have his phone number when I thought I did, sent him a message on here, and was unable to reach him to settle the bet over Bonnaroo weekend. Next year... I met ncbst3 over the course of the weekend, but we were in campgrounds nowhere near beer vendors at the time. We never did meet up to settle that bet. Next year...
