[/ QUOTE ] I was uninvited from a home game for "attitude/demeanor". I thought for a time it was a class war thing (long story short - I'm from a college town. this was one of Dallas' more affluent suburbs), but played in another tourney in roughly the same area and those guys didn't have a problem with me. A bit younger and relatively "hipper" (more the fratboy type). Then again, it's Texas, free thinking is generally not a desirable trait amongst certain groups anyway... I'm quite happy with my home game now. Fun people and we all like each other to some degree. A little bit in-jokey, but new people are welcome if they can hang with a bit of the ballbusting. Well, and the occasional "You [censored]!" when they river me. (I was not doing this at that game.)

Re: playing with cops
Looks like we've got a road game sarge
Eh, cops are normal people. A friend of mine is a CHP and he couldn't make a game, but he came by to fake a raid while on break. Shoulda seen the look on a couple of dope smoker's faces. Like I said, normal people. Another regular player is a sherrif. He knows about the funny smell, but we respect his job etc, so we go out back, but it is obvious what is happening.
