Way outside my comfort zone

I think I'm going to do something way outside my comfort zone tonight. I recently got rid of cable so I don't get ESPN.  I really didn't think this decision all the way through because college basketball season just started.  I am a huge KU basketball fan.  They are playing Kentucky tonight on ESPN.  I think I am going to go a sports bar I've gone to a few times for a happy hour and watch it there completely by myself.  Any of my female friends I would ask to go are 1. not basketball fans or 2. have children and wouldn't be able to.  Here's to a Jayhawk win...and possibly meeting a cute boy Stick out tongue

*The only way to dream is big*

Re: Way outside my comfort zone

  • Have fun! Sit at the bar and enjoy yourself!
  • Sounds like a great time actually! I miss doing stuff like that by myself.

  • I love going to sports bars. Dude, I'd go with you. I love bar food and cheap drink specials. :) Have a blast!
  • Good for you!  Bartenders are always great to talk to if you wanna chat someone up and there aren't any cute boys around.  Report back!

  • Have fun! I always made it seem scarier in my head than it really is lol!
  • I did this one night (except it was football)...I wanted to watch a Thursday night game, my daughter was with her dad, and no one else wanted to go..so I said F it and went by myself, got some grub, and had a few...it was fun! 

    Enjoy it!!!!

  • Go for it! That's how I met my boy toy.

  • I used to do that all the time when I lived alone (early 20's) and my girlfriends weren't interested in joining me.  I'd have a blast at the bar, literally 5 steps from my front door of my apartment building, and I was usually the only girl there and would get free drinks the entire night.  Have fun!!!

  • FUN! One of my best adventures I had was by going to a bar by myself...it was WAY out of my comfort zone, but turned into a good thing!

  • I'm not the sort of person to go and do things on my own either (I just had to force myself to the cafeteria at work to eat by myself or find someone because my normal lunch buddy is out today). I've gone to a sports bar - only one time - by myself and it was suprisingly not bad. I sat at the bar beside someone who appeared to be there alone and we chatted and made fun of the drunk couple beside us. It was fun...It wasn't as torturous as I thought it would be.

    Good Luck
