Ha! Fat chance. Especially on a Tuesday. It will be the usual cluster of cops hassling people, saying 4 pm, then 3 and then it will become total gridlock and they will cave and then it's chaos trying to park all the cars. So you know, typical Star Lake.

Noon it is! Well, pretty close to it. We join the Steel City Fins and go in FIRST. There may still be seating available if you chevk their FB page.

You gotta be on the bus if you want early entry. Obviously no promises or assumptions but in the last 3 years they are in between 12:30-1:00.

Believe me, it is well worth the $25 bus ticket price. Plus, there's clean potties, air conditioned comfort all during the tailgate and no worries about parking lot fender benders/hassles, etc. Just sit back and enjoy the ride !

BUS NEWS.....

From Mike "Buses are as follows:
Two buses to arrive at the Doubletree at noon for pack and load. Ruby Watrous Marcocelli will have wristbands for the riders at the pool party. If early in is ok'd buses will leave accordingly to the time we are allowed in.

For example if we are allowed in at 1 they will leave at 12:30.


Two buses will arrive at the Holiday Inn Express at noon and follow the same time scenario. I will have the wristbands at the HIX party for the bus riders from there. Doubletree buses are full but check with Ruby to see if there are any cancellations. HIX buses have a few seats left so contact me. Again there may be cancellations there also."

12 days from now I will be Pittsburgh bound. If this is going to be the last year that Jimmy does a full tilt summer tour I will appreciate, savor, and celebrate every moment in the Burgh.

Oops! 9 days from now I will be Pittsburgh bound. I should not try to crunch numbers after working the graveyard shift.

This will be my first bus trip. Safe to assume that coolers allowed on the bus?

Big stuff goes underneath in storage. You can bring a small cooler to your seat,but you may have to hold it.Plan on water at your seat for the ride back. I din't two years ago and chugged Sangria. That was a mistake for me added to the mistake of too many Jello shots brought on the bus for the ride in.

Oooh! I hope there will be gelo shots on the bus this year! Today my cousin is coming to my house to help me put the finishing touches on my Buffett 2016 look. To think that next week at this time I will be partying in the Burgh.
