Something to boast about?

[LostDoggy]

Ok Guys, over the years we’ve all indulged in something for ourselves, and possibly something to do with the Bulldogs.

On the other hand, we may have received presents associated with the Bulldogs that we didn’t expect, or just couldn’t (or wouldn’t) spend on ourselves.

I’m fortunate enough to be able to boast that I’ve have just celebrated a significant birthday (starts with 6 and ends with 0) and received as a present; personalized number plates (DOG 054).

Whilst I’m extremely proud to have received the plates, just how lucky am I to receive the ‘54’?

Are there any other WOOF members who would like to ‘boast’ about unexpected Bulldog related presents?

Unfortunately - not! Am just a little envious of your new number plates - what a great present for a significant birthday! BTW - hope it was a happy one!

Happy birthday DD.

Now the less footy-inclined people will think you are 6 years younger than you are, if they make a judgement on your plates.

My nephew trained with the Cannons last year and got to know young Wallis and Libba. He has organized a guernsey signed by the two boys and their fathers. Hopefully should have it for Chrissy

Doesnt that mean youll just have to trade them in for 'DOG-11' in 10 months time?!?!

In '97 the horror Prelim fell on my birthday, and after I got home from the 'G, my significant other at the time had bought me Doggy themed pressies - one of them being a pair of Doggy boxers. I guess the 'boast' aspect of this gift was that, suffice to say, it didn't stay on for very long after I tried them on.

My soon to be wife got Bulldogs number plates for her 30th 150 - WB! That was a huge suprise!

They would look good on my wife's car (054 that is) - the 011 would be on mine.....

Not gift related but my boast is I've spilt blood both on the playing arena and in the outer at Whitten Oval!

And Rohan Smith's mum was my kindergarten teacher.

And you did that playing non-contact footy. It was absolutely priceless.

For Christmas 2008 my husband bought me a Brad Johnson 330 game guernsey, went to Bulldogs training & had it signed (which is awesome as he's a Hawthorn supporter!!) and then had it framed. All this without me suspecting a thing, I was most surprised!!

I took my Kids to Adventure Park in Geelong a year or so back and Adam Cooney and Brian lake were there as well.

They were on the slide that has 6 or so lanes that times your trip from top to bottom. I can proudly boast that I beat Lake and Cooney on the trip.

Unfortunately my wife reminded me that things that are heavier fall faster so that took the wind out of my sails.

Priceless, wasnt it? I've still got the scar. Those monday nights were lot's of fun.


They might have been non-contact but we still copped a few injuries. Didnt SS do his knee? I ended up speding a night in hospital that time I sprained my ankle.
