Tampa = 25
Nashville = 24
St. Louis + Chicago + Indianapolis = 21
Omaha = 0
Not even the "we have a CIP in Omaha" factor is enough to help Omaha.

I think that since quite a few people have changed their minds, etc..., we should maybe start a new poll, maybe omit/add locations that were/were not mentioned/voted for, run it for a week, and then whatever the poll says goes.
Then we could work on dates

Indecision may or may not be our issue.....
Vegas.....I've been trying to talk a certain number cruncher to go to Vegas again. If we could tie in a BN gathering with a Buffett show out there......oh my......oh my.........I like that idea!
But the midwest idea is still my favorite....

I would offer two other things for the polling:
a) do we want to do this as a free-standing event, in which case the considerations of: can you get good airfares there; is it fairly centralized/not incredible flight times/distances/easy to get around using mass transit to save car rental money for drinking/eating/fun; are there other things to do in the location (and at this point, I would offer the following locations: Chicago/ATL for all three factors, and STL for the latter two and most of the first; is it close to another major Phlocking (like LDOL, Stars, PutInBay, the one in Reno, or MOTM) and if so, do we really want to step on toes or just fold the MOBNM festivities into that event.
b) do we want to do this in connection with a concert, which is going to require waiting on this until we have dates for the summer season (tied in with the first/warm-up leg of the tour this April/May might not be all that realistic if we have to wait until early to mid Feb. for those dates.

Atlanta.....I know just the place. And the airport is never a problem if that is your destination point instead of your connection point.

Not at all. Florida..specifically Tampa or Orlando is well equipped for any size gathering

I've been to Nashville once, except for the hotel I had a good time.
I can be at the beach in about 1/2 hour. Probably faster this time of year since there won't be a lot of traffic going that way.
