Open That Bottle Night

Post by jdaw1 »

Open That Bottle Night wrote:Every year since 2000, on a special Saturday night in February, friends, couples and groups around the world get together to enjoy particular bottles of wine, champagne and spirits. The bottle that you enjoy, traditionally, is one that you have been saving for some special event that, so far, has never quite happened. Open That Bottle Night (OTBN) is the event you have been waiting for...the time when you are entitled to uncork that cherished bottle and enjoy the contents. It doesn't matter if the wine is expensive or low cost, white or red, or even if it is still good. What matters are the memories.
Apparently the last Saturday in February is traditional.

Have any :tpf: people done this before? (Rather than doing it on a random night.)

Sounds like a virtual offline in TPF terms! Always up for that!

Just noticed that I had already replied to a thread of similar title: Open that bottle night 2/28/09 Long Island. Whoops.
