- mofo269, on 07/24/2008, -1/+16Hey, I took one of those pics! Great write up, the night was a lot of fun.
- SoSorry, on 07/24/2008, -1/+11Strongbow is big among weak-livered journalists who made the mistake of letting the bartender choose their first drink.
Bartender: What would you like?
Weak-livered journalist: Uh. You pick.
Bartender: Whiskey it is! - boozedrinker, on 07/25/2008, -0/+7You're a dick...get a life.
- wh0r4cl3, on 07/25/2008, -1/+8sub diggs? You mean sub reddit's?
- inactive, on 07/24/2008, -1/+8Interesting read! is strongbow big in the U.S?
- boozedrinker, on 07/24/2008, -2/+8AWESOME ARTICLE!!!
I was there and this is a great synopsis! - boozedrinker, on 07/25/2008, -1/+7You can find my pics of Kevin, Jay, and the event here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/blakeschnitkey/
Great Job on hitting the front page!!!
Kevin and team: thanks for an awesome time last night! Yes the free drink was very generous of them - plus the free one I got for telling digg's designer where he could go buy a VGA cable ;-) - inactive, on 07/24/2008, -2/+8You definitely got the Digg meetup from all angles. Good coverage.
- dfltr, on 07/24/2008, -1/+6not too big... it's only 12oz.
- acbeck58, on 07/25/2008, -1/+6ha. on the Kevin Rose lookalike...
"More than one person approached him to talk, noticed it wasn’t Rose, and moved on." - SoSorry, on 07/24/2008, -1/+5Take a bow, those who snapped pics featured in the story.
I love that the Kevin Rose imposter outed himself on Flickr. http://www.flickr.com/photos/rachelsodyssey/269806 ... - ufaithfull, on 07/25/2008, -0/+4I'm sure you have your flaws, maybe a smaller brain then most ants.
- baseballbrad3, on 07/25/2008, -1/+5Digg 1 > windycitizen.com's server 0
- inactive, on 07/25/2008, -0/+3I won't be surprised if that appears on Ebay shortly...
- xeslana, on 07/25/2008, -1/+4I think this is the third article that referred to Kevin Rose as a internet celebrity. I guess that means its official, Kevin Rose you are a internet celebrity! Good Job!
- inactive, on 07/25/2008, -0/+3sub-diggs to go along with the "joined in 2008" sub-DIGGERS
- Absalon, on 07/25/2008, -0/+3yes they were. one free drink of your choice.
- mofo269, on 07/25/2008, -0/+2I recently heard Kevin Rose referred to as one of the "Web 2.0 Justice League" (by @garyvee). That cracked me up so much that beer came out or my nose which hurts WAY more than it did in high school.
- mofo269, on 07/25/2008, -0/+2been there, done that. too funny!
- MtheoryX, on 07/25/2008, -0/+2FTA:
"...Digg.com, one of the web’s top destinations for tech news, political opinion and funny videos..."
Is it just me, or is this really sad? I miss my Digg tech news. Rest in peace, friend. - mofo269, on 07/24/2008, -1/+3The "Kevin Rose guy", also known as Joe, is SO SWEET! My friend and I waited in line with he and his girlfriend for 45 minutes. In person he doesn't really look like Kevin Rose, but Smart Bar was so dark I can see how everyone got confused. The darkness and the shirt...
- sastian, on 07/24/2008, -1/+3What a fun night!
- katie10, on 07/25/2008, -0/+2That look-alike looks nothing like Kevin Rose!
- kspot, on 07/25/2008, -0/+2ugh. too much whiskey.

- SoSorry, on 07/25/2008, -0/+2Hey Baseball Brad. Sorry our server died on you. This was our first trip to the front page. I'm going to see if I can't work out something with our host to make sure this doesn't happen again. If you've got any expertise in the area, drop us a line at windycitizen at gmail.com. Thanks
- jjaime213, on 07/25/2008, -1/+3Looks like a cool meet up. I hope i can meet the guys of digg one day. That guy doesn't look much like Kevin Rose, though from far he is a little bit like him.
Kevin or not Kevin, seems it was a amazing meeting/party. I remember Kevin sending a tweet about "Aubs is Single" that may have driven more people in to the meet up. - tommyjwall, on 07/25/2008, -2/+4Had an EPIC time last night! Thanks to Kevin, Jay, and the rest of the Digg crew! You're welcome back anytime. P.S. Lou Malnati's FTW.
- HitnRunTony, on 07/25/2008, -0/+2Man, sucks that I couldn't make it.
- roadtripper, on 07/25/2008, -0/+2more server, please.
- inactive, on 07/25/2008, -0/+2Digg 2.0 = "Ow! My Balls!"
Probably thinking about unloading it pretty soon huh, Kev? - RickStarr, on 07/25/2008, -1/+3"...crowd of nearly 300 avid members of its user community for free drinks..."
If that's true, I want my $9 back. - inactive, on 07/25/2008, -0/+2Yeah, full of dudes and stuff....
- boozedrinker, on 07/24/2008, -0/+1I got pics with Kevin and Jay, and even had Kevin sign my iPhone!!!
- inactive, on 07/25/2008, -0/+1Classy of him!
- MikeonTV, on 07/25/2008, -0/+1When are we coming to Toronto?
- SoSorry, on 07/25/2008, -0/+1Thanks Case. This was our first trip to the front page. I'm talking with our host about how we can get the VPS to stay up! If you've got any experience in this area, hit us up at windycitizen at gmail.com
- inactive, on 07/25/2008, -0/+1The darkness, and the shirt, and the free-flowing good times juice.
- direlemming, on 07/25/2008, -3/+4There was a coment in the story about how less than one % of users are responsible for 80% of the front pg. story's the reason that they get so many on the home pg is that they get allot of friends and spam them (shout) to get them to digg up there story's in exchange for a digg of there own this is why you see the same people week after week getting story's on the home pg it looks like they have macros they auto shout all there friends. Iv had the same person shout me 3-4 times about the same story within sec. of the first shout it looks like a program of some kind.
- sastian, on 07/25/2008, -0/+1heres my flicker posts...

"drawing a male-heavy, youngish crowd of nearly 300 avid members of its user community for free drinks"
Gee, ya don't say. - mofo269, on 07/25/2008, -0/+1Lou Malnati's all the way!!!!!!!!
- mofo269, on 07/25/2008, -0/+1The key factor in that guy was how friggin' dark it was in there. It was like a cave! Aubs dress didn't even really look white!
- mofo269, on 07/25/2008, -0/+1I agree from the pics, but you had to be there. It was so friggin' dark it was in there. It was like a cave! Aubs dress didn't even really look white. Major confusion between darkness, blasting music, and well, beer...
- P373Y, on 07/26/2008, -0/+1you made an account, so you are a "digg" person.
- niallconnellan, on 07/24/2008, -1/+2I definitely had a good time last night!!
- mofo269, on 07/25/2008, -0/+1totally! and since i'm a gal, places full of dudes are tons of fun...
- Elranzer, on 07/25/2008, -0/+1So many virgins... so little time...
- Elranzer, on 07/25/2008, -0/+1But... Jay gets mistaken for male models.
- DeQuinceysDiet, on 07/25/2008, -0/+1That's precisely what I thought it would be. Glad I didn't bother even though I happened to be driving down Clark at about 6pm...
