If it's @ Tinley Park again, we need a better plan than what happened last year to cover 8am-noon or whenever the gates decide to open.

Yeah, but.....it's a Super 8.

Anytime now, Jimmy & co....if it's going to be a June show, we'd like to know before May rolls around.

In a related story, there are plentiful park benches, bushes and even curbs which are surprisingly cheap and likely nicer than a Super 8

All jokes aside...when is the rest of this damn tour getting announced???

False. No tailgating for a Buffett concert is not acceptable at all, no matter how great the venue would be.

I would love for the show to return to Toyota Park. Way better show experience and way way way better tailgating experience. Our group has always loved getting there by 8 or 9am and making the most of the day...Tinley doesn't allow that! either way, hopefully the tour gets announced sooner than it d...

" You won't be able to get to the main lot from Odyssey. TP Cops are jags"

Why would we not be able to drive from one lot to the other?

We weren't planning on walking from Odyssey to the venue, rather spending our nornormal 9a-2p tailgating time there until the venue is available. I simply cannot handle the idea of only a 6 hr tailgate when we normally have 11.

Sounds like we'll be @ Navy Pier Friday night, then bright and early @ the Odyssey Sports Bar & Grill (across the street from First Midwest entrance) so we can party right up until the gates officially open....see ya there!

Since the Holiday Inn festivities have been canceled, are there any other pretailgate gatherings planned?

We are staying @ the Country Inn & Suites in Matteson and would very much like to start our day around 8 or 9 instead of 2 or 3....we may end up doing it in our parking lot if nothing else

Ditto.

No cost tailgating @ holiday inn would be best. BYOB, food available for purchase. No reason to charge admission, let us enjoy a full day like we should be able to anyway

Any updates on the Holiday Inn pre-tailgating? We will definitely be in attendance but we're wondering about what time to gather and what to expect (other than a damn good time). Thanks!

Thanks for checking into it for me! I, too, am tingly w/ anticipation...

4 for the lawn! Anybody have details about the pretailgate party at the holiday inn? What time will it begin?

We are a group of 4 who are among the early tailgaters very disappointed in the 3p instead of 9a start time. We booked a room @ the country inn & suites down the road in matteson (priceline saved us 50%). We were hoping to pretailgate somewhere, and apparently that goes down at the tinley park h...
