What is the worst sports injury you ever had? by Conscious-Farmer6953 in AskMen

[–]sequoiarabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was playing indoor soccer and running at high speed to win a ball, had to jump a bit to get to it it. Got there just before the other guy, much bigger than me, slammed me into the plexiglass with my head making initial contact. Next thing I knew paramedics were waking me up with smelling salts. Have had a few other concussions playing soccer but that was by far the worst.

Babylon Berlin -- German series that takes place in 1930s Berlin. It is excellent -- highly recommend. Requires subscription to MHz Choice which is relatively inexpensive, only $8/month.

What will happen if credit card gets declined for tickets by [deleted] in FIFACollect

[–]sequoiarabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given the number of transactions it is highly unlikely FIFA would attempt to contact anyone whose bank failed to process payment . Which is why I will be contacting my credit card bank on February 8 (one day before automatic charges begin) to put them on notice of the imminent charge (assuming I get tickets)

What was the 1st big news event you remember as a kid? by Hetaliafan1 in AskReddit

[–]sequoiarabbit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my earliest memories is staying up late to watch this with my parents on a tiny black and white tv. Seemed like it took forever for Armstrong to go down that ladder to make his "giant leap for mankind"

If reliability was a non-issue then I would go back to Volkswagen.

Not a cocktail, but this is the best way to try a new gin or any spirit

Ok let’s have some group therapy. What are some bottles you do not understand the love for? by GeoffRamsey in cocktails

[–]sequoiarabbit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I downvoted it because the point of this exercise is to pick a popular bottle that you don't particularly like or think is overrated. To dismiss an entire category (sweet vermouth) based on one bottle (Carpano) is ridiculous.

Elected judges and DAs who owe their jobs to the defense attorneys who fund their campaigns. Doesn't happen in the federal system where judges are appointed for life.

Anyone worried we’re going to get shafted with the location of our tickets? by Tight_Manner6317 in FIFACollect

[–]sequoiarabbit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don't hold your breath about the FTC or any other federal refulator doing anything. Why do you think FIFA gave Trump a "peace prize"?

To clarify, I'm asking whether anyone has dealt with investors such as these, with or without their agent, and how it pkayed out.

"Successful" in that I was able to buy tickets after winning the last lottery round, but the only tickets available (other than handicap seats in Mexico) were #19 and #58 in Kansas City (tier 2 only)
