Big news from Big Jock. Get your tartan towels looked out, your subway passes upgraded and make sure you’ve 6 months left on your visas……Big Jocks is hitting Brooklyn!
In what will officially be know as the ‘BJT4SANYDBTBTBBB‘ Big Jocks Tremendous 4th Semi Annual New York Dive Bar Tour, Back to Basics Brooklyn Bound, the net has been cast far and wide for drinking establishments which can live down to the extremely low standards required for selection. Of course as well as having considerably more money than any of you, Big Jock is also much more generous and kind hearted. He has offered to donate “two of your worthless third world dollars” to the fund for retired Tartan Army foot soldiers for anyone who can out-drink his vast consumption of Brooklyn Lagers. Percy will be allowed to look after his fat wallet for the afternoon while he challenges all comers.
July 19th 2008 - Everyone and everybody is invited to join us for the fun that is ‘BJT4SANYDBTBTBBB‘.
Rest assured that Malky was banned from making any suggestions for this tour.

Right folks, Big Jock has been on the blower and Big Jock isnae happy. And when Big Jock isnae happy heads will normally roll. However being the generous fucker he is, he has humbly allowed us to put together Big Jocks Tremendous 4th Semi-Annual New York Dive Bar Tour on the strict mandate of ‘BACK TO BASICS’. Big Jocks popular with the ladies and he’s had many lovers, there’s a good chance your wife is one of his cast offs, but when it comes to drinking he’s a mans man. Therefore any bar which will sells Corona or Martini is strictly off limits. Big Jock has spent more nights at expensive hostess clubs watching catwalk models earning an extra buck lap dancing for him than you’ve had hot dinners. The last thing he wants to see is some flabby barmaid performing tricks for the tourist crowds – Coyote Ugly theme bars are out.
Big Jocks Tremendous 4th Semi-Annual New York Dive Bar Tour is getting back to
basics. He’s told us to sort it out or he’ll “get Trump in to run the whole fucking thing”. Biggest shiteholes in New York – nothing more!
WATCH THIS SPACE FOR DETAILS – KEEP ALL OF JUNE FREE COS JOCK WILL DECIDE FIT SUITS HIM BEST AND YOU BETTER MAKE TIME FOR HIM.
Big Jock will be in China putting together a large deal to provide the windows to the Bejing Olympic stadiums however for us mere mortals there is a BJT4SANYDBT strategy meeting starting around 3-44-5pm at Cheap Shots on May 17th. All welcome.
Feel free to pass this message onto friends and enemies.

A quick message about Tartan Day … we’ll put some info up soon on the various Tartan Day events. It will be all the same fun as previous years and we’ll post the details as soon as we have them.
The parade is on Saturday, April 5th this year and leading the parade this year will be Lawrence Tynes, footballer of the other kind with the Giants. Not often (actually never) that we’ve had a Scot in the Superbowl!
tartanweek.com has the full program, which will continue to fill in over the next few months
