Billthelizard-- You can count us in. What time are you getting there?

Sounds good Specks, that makes 5 of us so far. With the show starting at 8:00 I figure we will get to Hard Rock between 4:30 and 5:00. That should be enough time for drinks, food, phriends and general merriment before heading over to see Bubba. PM or post details of who I should be looking for. As far as myself, I believe I will be in pirate gear(red pants) :pirate: with two hula gals with me. One my height and one considerably smaller.

I will keep posting/checking posts to see if we can make our party grow as we get closer to the show. Phins Up, Arghh, Ahoy and get those boat drinks ready. :lol:

Billthelizard-- Not sure what we will be wearing (I,m a little more sedate) probably Buffett tee & shorts. May go crazy & wear Flamingo hat. I'll be in touch closer to the time, will know more then. We were thinking of getting there between 4-4:30. Counting the days!!!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hard Rock for Pre-show looks great! Bhamas Breeze has an awesome tropical setting though. You may want to check it out for kicks.

We might need to leave a little earlier than planned (say around 5pm) and walk a few blocks west to get the bus and make sure the traffic doesn't screw us up. But that will just leave us more time to party in the lot.
I'm trying to work something out with Sloppy's to get us all in no matter what time you show up, but if I can't make sure you get there good and early. Please don't shoot the messenger, blame the damn air show.
Don't forget to check your mailbox's for bus payment info, and get me $$$ ASAP please.
Payment sent! Thanks Matt!

I agree with your thoughts about Bahama Breeze, but if they are not going to accomodate us parrotheads I'll be more than happy to party at Hard Rock who I know will.

Will we see you at Hard Rock Saint Auggie? If so who should we look for and how many of you?

Is it just me or is everyone else having problems concentrating on anything but Jimmy coming to town? Man am I ready to party!!! :D :D

There will be a small contingent from the Nation's Oldest City headed south to Sunrise! Will definitely hit the Hard Rock.

I only party a few times per year, the rest of the time drinking is training for the big events. Kind of like a prize fighter, yeah that's it, a prize fighter.

You are so right. That is where my wife and I will be dining before the show. Can't wait. 24 days.

It appears there are two meeting points now. Some felt it was going to be a traffic nightmare going from Sloppy's to the arena. I still think the largest (and probably the routiest) will be at Sloppy's but there is another group meeting at HRC.

Always a good idea to exchange a couple of cell phone numbers if you haven't consumed libations with this bunch before! I'll PM you!

I'm thinking Bahama Breeze on Friday night for dinner and some parrot drinks. Then, a little Hard Rock on Saturday for the Pre-show. But you don't want to miss the "real" pre-show inside the venue. It was very festive the last time I ventured to Sunrise!!!

Good plan Saint Auggie. And you're right about the festivities inside the venue. I can still remember the Bacardi girl and the blinking pins she handed out, SCHWING!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
