Exactly 2 months from today

Post by sholleran »

Exactly 2 months from today we'll be nursing king-sized hangovers and wondering where the heck we put the phone numbers of our newest friends . . . .


Say, wasn't somebody from the cinci Parrot Heads gonna post some tailgate scoops here? I know it's a tough venue to do it up well, nowadays.

Looking forward to meeting you, and all my parrothead friends

i have attened cincy the past 4 years....last year we rented an RV, and went the night before and parked across the street. the cops woke us up the next morning at 6:00 and made us move. the race track bought the lot, and there was absolutly NO tailgating! they had police blocking the the entry ALL DAY!!!
there is a restaurant (AJ's) about 1 mile from the concert they have a good party and some tailgating....
but Cincy will never be the same again...

Tailgating.......at Riverbend????

Post by phphlyer »

It's been a long time since I posted to a thread so bear with me. I just got through reading all the posts regarding the upcoming concert. There seems to be some questions as to whether we have any fun tailgating.......I'm not sure where a lot of you were last year but we had a GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAT TIME!!!!!! We parked across from Riverbend and arrived about 2:00 P.M. I have some GREAT pictures from the tailgate party if anyone is interested!!! 8)

I'm coming down to Cinci with some phriends, and we're definitely looking to tailgate. Where did you park across the street? Even if we can't start until 2:00 it's better than not at all.

Per my earlier post, I do have pics from several years of tailgate parties at Riverbend, however, they are not on a public server, hence I cannot post them. If any of you are interested, please email me and I'l try to send them out to you........if you send me an email through this site, be sure to include your email!!!! :wink:

Hi all!!! I've been away from the board for a little while. PHINMOBILE plans are underway for the big event. We're expecting this year's event to be off the hook like always.

Ches, if you don't hear from me in a couple days call my cell.

Just a reminder folks, as the big night is only days away now, our lot will still be open on sutton road. Sutton road is closed off 3 miles up from rt.52 (in front of Coney Islands main gate) due to road construction. . Parking will be on a first come, first serve basis, and will be weather permitting only. No rain. RV's welcome. Lot will be open aug,31 unless other arrangements are made with us. a map is availiable here

Will be at Cincy concert for 17th out of last 19 years.

Park in the River Downs parking lot. You can get hammered there. The track restrooms are open during the day and if you want you can go make bets. Secondly, you don't have to cross Kellog Ave. And if you want to go into the World's largest swimming pool, you can do that too! I will be there around 11:00 am. By the way I am new to this site and man it is great. I found it through Radio Margaritaville.
