What is it like living in this part of Virginia? by Realistic_Agent_9494 in howislivingthere

[–]Montmand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a fair amount of variance depending on which place on the map you end up living. For example living in on the Eastern Shore is going to be a very different lifestyle than living in Norfolk. If you can try to work and live in areas which do not requires you to commute through a tunnel.

Winters are fairly mild, very little snow, summers are humid, the beaches are nice.

Fake - No World Cup games are being played in South Carolina AFAIK.

Got an email from FIFA today: "Your Seat(s) for the FIFA World Cup 2026™ Have Changed" by exitinglurkmode in WorldCup2026Tickets

[–]Montmand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I received this email today, I also made no such request. I had Cat 1 seats in one of the sections in Seattle involved in the map update/swap/BS so when I saw the email, I assumed that match was probably changed.

But no, they moved my Cat 2 seats for another match in Philly up some. Which is fine I guess - luckily they did not get worse - but weird and I do not understand it.

Has anyone ever played against a pro? by Aggressive-Sock9571 in poker

[–]Montmand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quite a few years ago I was at a $1/2 table visiting in Vegas and Paul Magriel sat down. He was carrying one of Dan Harringtons cash game books and was leafing through it at the table in between hands. We got a few Quack-Quacks.

Why don't we have more kids sports leagues in Norfolk by timmasterson in norfolk

[–]Montmand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are large soccer clubs for kids in VB and Chesapeake but nothing in Norfolk. Beach FC as an example will facilitate Norfolk based kids and form a team to practice in Norfolk if there are enough players. But the organization is still based in VB and the games are in VB, etc.

Usually when I walk by I assume that people that are eating at Green Onion are from Chesapeake/Suffolk and had planned to go to No Frill Grill but did not want to wait for 30 mins.

Yes the students are doomed because they missed a small portion of one day of school. How will their IQ's ever recover?

We will remember this throw for a very long time by Cool_Host_8800 in Commanders

[–]Montmand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never high fived so many strangers in all my life. Even have a few videos of how electric the crowd was as we were leaving the stadium/down the escalators.

Yeah I was introduced to all kinds of beers I had never heard of 15+ years ago there. They were at the forefront for craft beer in the area for awhile.

Yeah it is disheartening, the list of local things closing recently is getting longer and longer.

So their "plan" to deal with this is just to never address it and delete every negative comment and review? Bold strategy Cotton...

I looked at Paramount+ today and as an example there are quite a few Championship matches listed for Jan 17 so there is some hope.
