The Great Fresno Tweetup was a big hit, full of cell-phone yielding Fresnans mingling and drinking $1 beers while enjoying a Grizzlies game (they won!) and attempting to win plush Scoopy dolls. Thanks to all who came out.
Here are a few moments captured by Beehive cameras. I'm sure more photos will surface over the next couple days and I'll update accordingly. If you have photos to share, leave a link in the comments. If you didn't get a Scoopy, you better step your Rock, Paper, Scissors game up before the next Tweetup.
The Grizzlies made a fancy sign (No, I'm sure they don't do that every day) and put all our Tweets on an overhead projector (No, that's not at all the nerdiest thing to ever happen in Fresno).
Obligatory photos of people on their phones:
The Fresno Tweetiverse is so diverse, it has a balloon-animal maker:
Here are a bunch of pictures from Donald's camera (which are totally better than mine). I'm not going to write captions, so if you don't know the people in the pictures, just pretend you do and make up stories about them. If you're in the pictures, identify yourself. Except Scoopy, we know which one he/she is.

The Fresnan recorded this video of Kopi using Fresno Tweeps like we were Jon & Kate's eight kids.
Good times... but what is Scoopy doing to my girlfriend? ha ha ha! :P
Thanks you guys! Thanks Grizzlies! Helluva game you guys had there!
What a fun night indeed! Here's a another photo:

When's the next tweetup? Can't wait...
The ladies really gave Mike a run for his money in Rock, Paper, Scissors. :) Thanks to everyone for coming out. It only took 7 innings to get rid of the bag of Scoopy dolls.
Had a great time last night with all the tweeps. Thanks again to both the Beehive and the Grizzlies for doing this.
I'm not sure what was better. Seeing my name on the giant screen or Traviv's 14 game streak of the Grizzlies losing every time he attends a game ending.
What about seeing yourself on the video board?
I was on the video board? Dammit I missed it.
Thanks for that though Vince, sorry I was too oblivious to see it.
I was not drunk...
Nice picture, Donald.
Ya'll need to do it again, and plan it for a day when I don't have a migraine, k?
Good times for sure. Hoping they do another one soon!
