We have about 25 people flying to Tampa for this show. People coming from, NY, PA, FL, OH, AL and MI. It is a HUGE concert as it is my friend's 100th Jimmy concert and my mom's 1st :). We do have VIP parking for the tailgaiting. We will most likely be near the SWFLPHC party. Luckily, my mom lives in FL so we will be able to have a GREAT setup for tailgaiting. We are all staying at the LaQuinta hotal across the street and we will be having a pre concert pool party at the hotel Thursday night, if you would like to stop by. Music and music videos will be supplied via a "hollywood" projector at the pool.
If you'll be in the Sarasota PHC, Tampa PHC, or Virtual PHC area, then you'll be in the exact same spot as us. :-)

A brief reminder, we'll be setup here:

If your $40 is donation for the music or charity, just bring it with you and we'll have tip jars. If you need me to plan food for you, I can send you my paypal info so you can send it in advance so we can buy the food ahead of time. Let me know.

I'm not sure on the parking lot opening time.

Thanks

Good information to know. Last year they said 9am but when I went down to get breakfast at the LaQuinta at 8am, I could see cars cruising into the lots. Wolfed the breakfast and bolted.

Does anyone need a double bed room at the La Quinta, across the street from the fair grounds?
The hotel is full, and no rooms left.
Have 2 nights, Thurs - Sat., that I will be cancelling.
Shoot me a PM if interested and I can transfer the reservations into your name.

We plan on picking up liquor to bring with us for the tailgate... any of y'all know if we'll be able to just roll into the parking lot lugging a case of beer and bottle of tequila, or do we need to disguise it (i.e. pouring the tequila into a water bottle)?

Also, does anyone play flipcup at the Tampa tailgate? That's our favorite party game and we'd love to play some games with fellow Parrotheads, but obviously won't have our own table...
bring liquor, food, etc, no issues getting it into the tailgate lot. Check a few pages back to see where we'll all be. Find me once there and we'll setup a game on one of our tiki bars.

That is awesome! We'll definitely swing by the tailgate. Looks like it'll be a great time!!

Only a few days left, can't wait to see everyone!!

Right now we're around ~30 folks going in on the food. If anyone else wants to partake, let me know asap so I can get you my paypal info. Any overage on food donation is going to the entertainment pool, and any overage there is going to the charity... so it's all for a good cause!
