Pyramid Poker.

So yesterday we went back to the Pyramid Brewery, as we'd heard a rumor that poker all-star Phil Gordon would be there to speak and sign copies of his new book. That's definitely the life, touring brewpubs to sell your wares. We hung out there for a while, throwing back some apricot ale and eating some crazy chili fries, until we saw the Big Man show up (he's about 6'5"). We walked over to the signing room, where we were greeted by a PR person, who cheerily asked our names. After telling her, we walked around this small room where Phil was selling books and chatting people up. He seemed like a swell guy from what we could tell. As we were deciding to leave, the PR lady came over and asked our names again because she "couldn't find us on the list". Evidently it was a VIP event, which no one had ever mentioned!
