Around the table, starting on the left and going around... pghfaninstil's daughter, BFFL, ThePossum (my uncle), stlsledges's brother in-law, GGG (not to be confused with G4, that is Scott from Iowa), Tanschmidle (who many of you remember), pghfaninstil's son, the actual pghfaninstl & stlsledge (sporting the jersey & beer)! (pghfaninstl - If I got it wrong, let me know. Going on memory here.). Great afternoon, for sure!
