Pay the 60.00...if you don't want there hotel package...there is a red roof near by...and go out to eat...thats what i may do!!!...or i can drive home..about 45 minutes...so not to bad!!
I don't want to undermine the convention's all inclusive package but Tom is right. The hotel is right across the street from a mall and near a few other hotels. There are plenty of food options near by if you don't want to pay for the all inclusive package. Less than a 5 min walk is a Red Robin, at the mall there is a Ruby Tuesday, 99 Pub, Pizzeria Uno as well as the typical mall food court. Not more than a 10 minute walk there is a sports bar, a Cracker Barrel and many other food options.
The convention gods are planning their wrath, Pat. Better start drinking Jack's whiskey.
I'll be the guy out front of the hotel waiting for you all, sitting in the snow, with a bottle of Jameson under a pink err Magenta umbrella..
Well, atleast there will be no confusion now.

minus the mud and bad brown acid too, plus we have hot showers and warm beds
For those who are considering coming....here are a few photo albums and videos from last year...taken by all the BNers.
Man, reading some of the posts, seeing some of the pics.....I can't wait to do it all over again!!!!

I may be regretting one day this but what the hell we are all gypsies in the palace ..
If people are fly up or driving up and need a place to crash either the Thursday before the convention or the Sunday after before because of travel arrangements you are welcome to stay here with me. Then on Friday we can all head over to the hotel. I live at most 30 minutes from the hotel and that is with traffic, without traffic it is 20 min. I have a pretty big townhouse so I can sleep 5 or 6 people downstairs and another few more upstairs. I do live alone with my dog so there is only one bathroom but I do have indoor plumbing and plenty of room. I do have a pool as well but that won't be needed in February.
Just an offer in case people are finding flights at high prices from Fri-Sun. Look to fly in Thursday and/or leaving on Monday. Mi Casa Su Casa ...

We're about 3 hours away, but we'll probably check into the hotel Thursday.....last year we (Christine, Marilyn & I) met the Boat Drunks and partied with them all night before everyone else arrived Friday.

At least it's not as far north as last year. Maybe they'll be less snow on the ground.
