Welcome back to Lea and safe travels to anyone like myself leaving Shanghai for Chinese New Year. I will leave Saturday for a week but hoping to get a little rust off my foosball game before then. Last week, I had fun at Three Sisters on Wednesday, Skyline on Thursday, and Big Bamboo on Friday. I will leave it up to Thorsten, Stefano and company to decide where we play this week but if I don’t hear back I will look to repeat the same schedule this week. Please let me know if interested in meeting up or if you want any practice tips, etc. Last week was extra special since Luke visited us and we even had an extra Saturday night of foosball with him. I don’t know if my lungs can take any more of The Beaver’s smoke though. Ha ha…
Long time fooser Jason who is on hiatus due to married life is selling his table. It is an earlier generation Fireball table with Tornado men. Super fast and in great condition. Only 2,500 RMB!! If you need help in delivery, Bing and I can help you for 500 RMB including dolly and delivery van. You can also rent a taxi/truck on your own for a cheaper solution. Let me know if interested and if you want Jason’s contact info. Maybe a bar that you know of that cannot afford a new table might be interested?
This Friday wherever we are, I am hoping to meet with this years organizing committee to discuss dates, locations and details about the 2012 two major foosball tournaments in Shanghai. Likely May and October holiday weekends. If you want to be involved or have a suggestion now is the time to let us know.
Rogers bar on Hongmei Lu is getting redone and will soon re-open as ‘City Bull’. They have a Fireball table and some good players apparently so let me know if you want to join me some night in going for a little challenge match there. They have a second location just opened on Nanjing Lu walking street. 300 Nanjing Lu near Henan Lu. Beautiful new Apple Store building 2nd floor mall location. We just delivered a new Fireball table to them and they are looking to have their own foosball night (thinking Wednesday). Talk to Tommy if interested 135 2409 9445.
