Any suggestions?
There's not much in the Foxboro area besides the restaurants near the stadium.
Mansfield is better:
Seafood-Fresh Catch-which is right next to a liquor store (Dub's)
Chinese-Cheng Du
Jimmy's Pub is good for any kind of food.
It's a total dive bar but The Catman has pretty darn good pizza. I'd say Classic Pizza has the best pizza in the area if you are looking for something on the cheaper side that is less of a "restaurant" and is close to the hotels.
Only time will tell if it was time well spent....

Ok. Looks like I may be able to leave early today. Thinking of the 3:30 train to Mansfield arriving there at 4:15. A ride would be appreciated but thinking cab to tje Comfort Inn.
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Life is short, live long!!

I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

We have landed! Safe travels everyone! See ya'll at the Roof!
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Pinot Noir in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO"

Dave wants to know when you're arriving. He says you need to arrive early so he's sober enough for a conversation with J&J!!!

Really, I have no idea yet what time we're arriving, depends on what they do tonite as to what time they are ready tomorrow! [smilie=cheeky-grin.gif] :wink: :lol: :lol: I'm guessing between 1 & 3.

And seriously, a sober conversation between the 3 of them!!! I don't think I know of what your speak :roll: :lol: :lol:

That is lame. We are going to the Beachcomber tonight to see Mishka. Probably won't be back until very late then wheels rolling at 7:30 to be at the hotel at 9. If us oldies can do it...so can they. Tell them the challenge is on!!!

Time to go to the gas station to fill the tank, stop for ice, then it's road trip time. Should be there around 2:30-3:00, depending on traffic getting off Long Island.

Send them to this YouTube vid of the lot at Atlanta a few weeks ago (sorry, couldn't find a decent one of GW): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CWJ9ip4fcU
I really like the part about 1:40 in where they are asking the cop for directions or something and one has a drink in their hand :)

It looks like what I was figuring, leaving here between 11 and 1, aiming for a noonish departure. Whether it's you, or a designee, please have someone leave me a voice mail, or a text telling me where who is parked.....I may end up paying the extra$$ and park in ez-out if they let me do that tomorrow.
Will you have ice ready for me.....you know how I am in this weather! :lol: [smilie=battingeyes.gif]
