Alright ladies and gentlemen. The big daddy is coming up in just over two days. For those of you going: the rest of us hate you. That being said, enjoy and be safe!
For those of us NOT going, what's your plan? It's a long ass show.
For me, I'm watching with my mum. I've mentioned a few times in the PPV and weekly show threads that I've really gotten her hooked into wrestling recently. Before 2016 the last time she watched regularly was before Bruno worked for Vince. Long ass time. She saw Mania last year but didn't have too much interest. This year, she's seen the whole...season I guess, and she's really invested in Takeover and more so in Mania so we're making a weekend of it. Gonna stay there the few days and get Chinese from a little hole in the wall by the apartment for Takeover.
For Mania, we're getting a little sandwich ring from my old work (Corned Beef and Swiss yo), she's making some potato salad for herself and I'm making some antipasto salad for myself. Then of course we've got little bagged snacks, grabbed her some cheddar popcorn for her and picked up a small bag of Hawaiian chips for myself (they're made local, basically Funyuns in chip form). I've got a twelve pack of hard ginger ale sitting in the fridge for myself throughout the night.
Sounds like a lot of food, but we figured get it and we'll chow down throughout Mania and whatever's left will be for RAW the next night. Gonna be cool to really hang out with her for a few days, as because of work and life I don't get to nearly as much as I'd like to, just for the couple hours RAW and SD are on, and the occasional PPV. Plus, seeing a 70 year old woman get super worked up in her hatred of Miz and love of Rollins and Styles is pretty hilarious. So I took a couple of rolled over vacation days that were gonna expire soon for Saturday and Sunday and it just so happens this week coming up is spring break so I don't have my student teaching gig at my college so it should be a few really, really fun days.
So what y'all doing/having?

I think I might order Papa Johns for the first time in 6 years for Mania.

Not a whole lot of wrestling fans amongst the peeps I hang out with so it's just me. I will be watching alone, unless you count thread heading on WFigs. It wouldn't be WM without a few Seth is short jokes from BOOKER_T . I considered hooking myself up to an IV so I could maintain a continuous flow of extra strong coffee. That seemed a little extreme so I'll probably stash a four or six pack of KickStart in the fridge - black cherry of course. I picked up a family sized pack of chicken wings at the grocery store today that I will cook up Sunday afternoon so I can snack on them all day and night. Might make some fried mozzarella sticks and marinara sauce too. When it comes to WM, I prefer a slow steady flow of snacks over a full blown meal break.

I'm not an energy drink guy, I don't even care for soda. Soda water, maybe, and the beer is a special treat for Sunday since I rarely drink. Also same on the steady flow of grazing throughout the night. Start out with a beer and a sandwich. Kick a few more back with some salad or chips, go back for more of something around hour four etc. Mozzarella sticks...I like the way you think.

Watching with my friends, getting a big thing of buffalo wild wings. Niiiice. That's generally the go to for me and the maternal parental figure for PPVs but problem is once I start with BWW I have no control over the damage I do to my tray so...seeing as Mania is a marathon, not a sprint, we went against tradition for this one. Any sauce in particular? I love super spicy, but I'm a sucker for the garlic parmigiano sauce myself. I keep a bottle of that ish in my fridge for when I'm having a chicken nugget/tenders craving. Soooo flame.

I've only got Pizza Hut and some local places that are way too overpriced, and I don't think you get enough bang for your buck with Pizza Hut. We’ve only just had one open recently that’s close enough to deliver. The other Papa Johns was on the other side of town so it was too far but I’m really excited to try it because the first time I tried it was on my 19th birthday and let’s just say I wasn’t in any state to remember what it tasted like lol 🤦🏽♂️ I agree about Pizza Hut too, we always go for a buy one get one free deal (we get lots of vouchers in the post/mail) but I feel like I’ve had it way too often. Same with Domino’s too, nonetheless I’ll be like this on Sunday lol

I've got tickets and a table booked at a local club to go watch WrestleMania on a 132" screen. Going to be going with flatmates and friends. The place is serving food until 2AM, so considering Mania won't end until around 5AM, it should be enough.

I have learned over the past year I cannot watch wrestling wth a group of friends because they don't shut the hell up and often ruin my enjoyment/attention to a match.
Probably be by myself with my fiancee in the other room. Planning on ordering Dominos and some wings from a local bar. Its huge for me because I haven't eaten that stuff in 4 months (down 32lbs!!!) so WM34 is going to be a sinful night lmao.

I often run into this problem as well. Its annoying but I'm actually starting to embrace it. Because its fun to shout "OOH" or "OH !" at the TV and have them all collectively ask "WHAT HAPPENED?!". Nine times outta ten I do it just to get that reaction.
