Polo weather vs the price of beer where you live

Last Sunday in L.A we played in 86 degree heat with average humidity of 53. Usually when this happens not too many players show up. Winter can get down to around 45 degrees which is very great to play in. If you can deal with a crowded busy city you can find a descent spot to live that is very affordable. LA is a great place to play in year round and they have a great group of players. Further south in the Inland Empire where I am from the weather is a bit more mild considering I am closer to the mountains. Since I am in the process of buying a house in this area I can say you can find a nice 3 bedroom that’s over 1000 square feet for around 175k. My group changes throughout the seasons because my fallowing comes from a Community of Colleges that is close by. This is cool because I play with people that are essentially from all over the world. When they go home for Summer I give them mallets with hopes that they will start games in their hometowns.

Man this is the longest post I have written on this site.

It's HOT here in New Orleans. The 28th we had a high of 103.6F with 84% humidity. Temperatures have been in the 90s these past couple of weeks. Humidity is always above 80%. Turnout has been low for our Sunday games. Wednesday nights have been hit or miss. Nights are still brutally hot sometimes. Our winters are perfect for polo.

Seattle is rocking it hot today. Should be this weekend too. But god, that is some expensive ass beer. You poor bastards. I think PBR down here is closer to 7 or 8 bucks for some tall boys. Vancouver and Seattle weather: tie. Vancouver and Seattle beer: +1 Seattle.

St Louis has the pretty standard Mid West weather. Cold winters and sweltering summers. Winter here is much milder than in Chicago - more about ice storms than snow storms, none of this -20f BS. Summer is hot and muggy. The two I've been here for have been mild and nice, but the locals tell me that the usual story is that there's about three weeks every summer where you just can't do anything. Too hot.

Beer is cheap. Dollar 2x4s of the cheap stuff at gas stations. 1.50 pints of Bud on tap at the dive around the corner. Standard (in my travels anyway) 4 dollar pints of something good at a nicer pub.

Housing is a steal. Move-in ready homes in relatively established city neighborhoods for under 100k. You can actually find 2 and 4 unit rental property in this town for a 100k. That means that if even one unit is rented at 500 a month, your note is paid.

If you want to go all urban pioneer, there are city programs that will help you buy a shell of a house for less than 10k. You'll need another 40 to fix it up.

Ten bucks for 6 pbr regular size = aprox 88cents american $8.88. Must factor in that pbr in Canada is 5.9% alkahol not like in the us where it's under 5% but the exact amount I don't know because it doesn't say. I would guess 3.5%.

Here at 6000 ft above sea level we drink our pbr by the 30rack. Full case if you will, or wont, and while 3.2 is avail in the grocer, you can get standard fare 4.73, at a liquor store for abound $17.00 after tax. I know of a place or two if your really broke and like to ride with a full case that you can score for around $13.00 and maybe a hand job. The weather, well its 300 plus days of sunshine, mild temps high yesterday was 85 F and humidity was excessively balmy at 50% average. We play polo twice a week, and we drink pbr all the time.

SF today. Warm & blue sky, almost 70F feels warm in the sunlight. Definitely hoping for a repeat next weekend. Deeelightful weather for evening pickup last night.

Bud at Costco comes out to about $4/6pk. Some bars will do Jameson & PBR $7. It's the swanky crafty micro brew with fancy sausage & truffle oil fries that gets you in this town. Mmm.

pbr shmeebeearr does nobody like steele reserve?
$2.80 a 4 pk of 16oz @ grocery stores, 6%

our weather is nice this time of year, we rarely see frost, tho last year it did snow for a day in nola and nobody was murdered that day either

dude, we dont even have PBR in anything more than 24 oz. here in SC. unless you go to salinas i think. weve resortet to the FOURLOCO! 12.5% 24 oz. and King Cobra 40z. doesnt go much lower that 40 degrees at the coldest. thats cold enough for us though.

Taking unnecessary photos of your bike while getting drunk at noon = ???

i think courts and how often you play should be included into this thread. i am looking to relocate.

last night for the first time ever we got mosquitoed out of polo, literally hundreds of the little bugars coming fresh out of hatch and ravenous for blood drove us from the courts after about five or six games. by the way pabst is still $4.99 usd plus deposit.

three tall boys of Labatt's isn't enough to even get a buzz on, and what you really just said is a sixer of tall boys costs about $11.20, plus your icy winters suck, and your 90% humidity summers don't sound that great either. I'll take the mud duck winters out here any day and the half off Pabst.
