Captain, the over/under time for you posting today was 11:00 am. Glad I'm not a betting man, 'cause I would have lost big time.

I'm impressed you can type this early...and glad to see you have "naptime" built into today schedule

1. When is the "ophicial" opening time of Pine Knob (sorry it will always be "the Knob" to me regardless of what corporation spends lots of money to convince me otherwise....)?
2. When and where is everyone meeting to convince them to open early?
3. How are we going to meet each other if that is the plan if everyone is hanging out in their own little Margaritaville?
I'm so looking forward to this, but I would love to put faces to names as they say. We will have our Whinnie parked in Handicapped Parking, where ever they let us go, and I'd love to offer a margarita jello shot or four to fellow BN'ers who stop by. We aren't able to make any of the pre Buffett gigs, but I do hope to at least meet one or two of you on Tuesday.
Rain or Shine, It's Buffett Time!!!!

Pine Knob is telling us the official start time will be about 4pm. We usually manage to force their hand at 2pm. Much of the DPHC club will start meeting at the Park 'n ride lot around noon. The earlier that more people show, the sooner we can force the gates.
Right in front of the west gate will be a roped off parking area. Capt. Morgan, myself, Marty, Dave, and several others will be parking in that area and are easy enough to find.
Check out my link to my Cincy pics. The Corona banner is easy to spot from a distance. Look for it in the lot tomorrow.

The trailer in the pics from Cincy is not the right one though.... that was a back-up trailer.... lol! We'll have the big trailer at PK. Again, just look for the Corona banner.
Here's a link to a thread you might find helpful. I posted the info on themoot.... a local site that I frequent. Check it out.

if you can find them, I am sure they wouldn't mind a new BN member stopping by to say hello. Look for the lanyards and the banner.

One last tip for those making the first trip to the D. Make sure to stop and get your red plastic cups before the show. The cops will party along with you if your booze is in a red plastic cup but if your holding a can or bottle, your dumping it out or getting a ticket.
