well then, you've just been put in charge of making tons of great food to share with everybody... bringing lots of beads and squirt guns to keep the excitement going... and helping us count down to the big day!

Only problem with food is that I'm not coming from home (Raleigh), I'm coming from Baltimore...But I'll be glad to contribute whatever is necessary...Now I was at Mardi Gras 2 years ago, so if I'm bringin beads, I better get my money's worth!

I was already planning on a cooler full of Corona's on ice and some Margaritaville tequila, and I'll bring some stuff to throw on a grill...Any other suggestions?

we just always try to bring along a ton of snack food... we like to make sure that everybody eats enough during the day to consume all that alcohol!

money's worth? not a problem

wow..you're bringing a keg? what kind of beer? If we had more peeps comging with us, we'd bring a keg too... too bad we can't chip in and get a keg of corona! (are you doing corona?) hehe

Lvskns · Post by **Lvskns** » June 24, 2003 3:25 pm

we play it safe and get miller lite since it's such a long day of drinking... but the backup everybody brings is usually stronger

we keep it in the back of somebody truck with a blanket over it and we have no problems.. this year we are using our favorite bar's keg cooler so we don't have to bother with the pumping; just pull the lever

Can you even get Corona in a keg? I don't think I have ever seen it on draft.

MelliJellyBean · Post by **MelliJellyBean** » June 24, 2003 3:34 pm

ya, my boyfriend has one of those taps too. VERY CONVIENIENT!!!

are you selling cups to share the keg or is it strictly for you guys?

We'll be bringing plenty of our own stuff, i'm sure...definitely mararitas and coronas...

Lvskns · Post by **Lvskns** » June 24, 2003 3:34 pm

i believe total wine and more can special order it for you, but don't quote me on that

... sam adam's has a great summer ale this year... almost got that instead, but it will kick ya on your butt a bit faster than miller lite

I didn't mean to butt in on this discussion. I have been watching it out of curiosity as I too am going to Nissan and was interested in how others prepare for and attend the show. The whole thing is so great

phrankbama · Post by **phrankbama** » June 24, 2003 3:38 pm

Sam Summer Ale is a very nice beer. If you get a keg of Corona, does it come with a slot to insert the limes?

It's very unsusual to see it on draft...but you can special order it in a keg...it's very expensive i hear though.!

I bet it's not cheap. Look what a six pack cost.
