Attempt to #crashTED was an epic #Fail

Last night fellow Long Beach twitterer's decided to embark on an evening of TED crashing debauchery. Unfortunately there wasn't much debauchery, and very little crashing was involved.

We began our night at the Dubliner in downtown Long Beach with @nsputnik and @theagent. We shared a round discussing current and past employment, the housing market, and the art scene in and around Long Beach. Once @daNanner, @missmotormouth, @DigSomeMore, @agentjon, @niecee, @jpdefillippo, and @Fogarty arrived, we got word that 18 #TED people were at Rock Bottom Brewery. Upon heading in that direction we realized that the TED Block Party was going on and we needed to be a part of it.



In an attempt to sneak in, we @ replied @kevinrose to somehow get us in. But our attempts went unnoticed and we decided to go with our original idea to grab another round of drinks at Rock Bottom Brewery instead. It was twitter talk at it's best. Attempting to get our hashtag #crashTED to be the #1 trend on Twitter search. Lots of fellow Long Beach tweeple toyed with the idea of joining us, but our #crashTED seemed like a lost cause.

All in all, it turned out to be a pretty fantastic night catching up with old friends and making new ones. Seems like most everyone is up for Round 2 tonight. I can't make it, but I wish them more success than last night.
