Dec 5th - NYC - Annual Baller Bubbles (2025)

Jay - don’t you also have some good hats? Last year, I think I remember a Terry Pratchett vibe.

I have that hat, along with a black satin cape with a bright red lining. I could wear that to the event, but it would look too normal for Brooklyn. If I want to look out of place, I’d wear my Republican costume. Dark wool suit, white shirt, American flag tie.

I’ll check with N to see if the apartment is registered as a cape safe space.

We probably need the Beserker helmet?

So you want me to bring a DM of La Grande Dame, a mag of Rare, a five foot long Katana, a satin cape, and the Official Berserker helmet? Does anyone have a truck to get my wife and me from White Plains to Brooklyn.

As someone who has watched “Bloodsport” way too many times as kid, this sounds awesome. Thanks so much if you’re able to figure this out!

I will not however be volunteering to use one and also probably won’t want to risk it on my bottles

This is a costume party, right? And it will be cold outside on the deck. So is it OK if I wear this coat?

And if anyone says PETA, I will say, would you like to see the five foot long Katana starpped to my back, or other the three footer?

with this helmet, of course.

No, that’s Adam Lee.

100% to all that, Jay.

With properly sabered bottle.

Now that it’s been two days and I’m mostly recovered I want to jump on to give a big tip of the hat to @gavin.f for his hospitality. Incredibly generous to have us degenerates over to feed us while we cause general chaos and break and/or spill his glasses all over his home. Thank you!

Every bottle was fantastic, and I didn’t jot any notes, but from memory Vilmart and Churchill ‘96 had a slight edge. Grand Siecle no.23 was also fantastic in a silky soft and crowd pleasing style.
