From Newsletter #6:
We had our first ever Texas football watching party in January 2002. Our member Brent Barnes taped the Culligan Holiday Bowl that was played on December 28, 2001. He brought the VCR tape back to Hong Kong for the enjoyment of all our members. We booked a karaoke room at Neway in Tsimshatsui for the party. It was when indoor smoking was still allowed and pictures were taken on APS films. It was that long ago!
