Good advice so far! DIALOGUE is key. Like Bluegarage says, not everyone is a good fit. This dialogue goes both ways---as someone thinking about joining a group, YOU should ask questions, try to get a feel for the crowd. As someone who runs two different monthly leagues, I ask a lot of questions, and try to get a good feel for a player to see if I will actually invite him/her. In contrast, we allow drinking, but only in moderation, and most players don't even drink while playing. Every crowd is different. I love the idea of bringing a friend the first time, and don't be a loudmouth! Good luck.
