I'll be there with the small grill just not sure the time. Vicki has to work a few hours in the morning. Hopefully her group will finish testing early. If someone has a big grill that would be great!

Look forward to seeing you Saturday.

weather forecasts are varying from weatherman to weatherman, but it is supposed to be very hot and humid. we may have some storms to deal with though it looks like they will not be all the time.

So.....come prepared, and HYDRATE!

Cannot wait to hit the tailgate and party like a lady going crazy in bridgeview! More than ready to kick back and have a drink or 2 or 20..... . Don't care what anybody says.... NOBODY does a tailgate like Chicago!!!! Oh yeah, and looking forward to that barefoot dude singin and playin some songs on stage after the party, lol!!

So....... Where's the party?

weather.com is officially useless . . . . 40% chance of rain 6am-6pm . . . I wonder if they can tell their asses from a hole in the ground. It's been 40% since Wednesday or so - has there not been enough data to refine this statement just yet. So since its not q 50% chance can we say its more likely not to rain but only by 10% . .. . RIDICULOUS!

WE can't be certain it will rain at all but IF it does it will rain ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL day . . . . or maybe it won't.

Good thing I think I have the materials to fashion my own Big Top.

I have been checking it about as much as you have. Does look like the concert will be dry.

Tom Skilling last night made it sound like we would have a wet tailgate, but NBC was less pessimistic, and this morning's reports sounded more like the rain would be early morning.


Who knows

Only thing we CAN be sure of is the HEAT so I'm bringing plenty of water along with what I plan to drink

Come ON tiki gods!

I don't think I'll be there until the afternoon, but I'm guessing you'll be in the proximity in the lot as the first Toyota year, and swing on over. If I can't find you easily, I'll try calling for directions.

Debating on whether or not to keep my room at the Hampton. decisions, decisions...

Hello all, looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow!
Thanks for all the planning Ellen, Dave, and Dan.
FINS UP!

Tiki Gods^^^please no rain for the show^^^get it out and done by late am Saturday^^^
one thing is for sure...it will be a fun time no matter what!
JoAnn, Dave, Vicki & Dan, Dave, Garry....can't wait to see you all again...
and looking forward to adding names to my list of BNers I've met tomorrow.
I hope to be at the lot around 1pm. From what I am putting together...it sounds like the tailgate
will be somewhere around the southeast side of the stadium off of Harlem? Someone please tell me if this is correct
or not. I have the phone list so I may need to dial for direction when I get there.
And I also hope to find the Parrot Dice lounge too. Sounds like a fun time!
Safe travels to everybody. See ya in Margaritaville!

Yep-we are heading to the east lot. Given our timing, we are likely to be in the first row or two of the main parking (the last two years we have been directly east of the Toyota Park sign).

JoAnn--Nicki and I will be at the Hampton Saturday night!

Thanks Ellen!! Looking forward to meeting you!!

LESS THAN A DAY.....OMG!!!!! CANT WAIT! CANT WAIT! CANT WAIT!!!!!

This map may help. This is an estimate of where we were the last two years. If you want to be in this lot you need to enter at 71 Street heading west. The intersection is marked with a large A on the map.

Safe travels to all BNers going to the concert.

We won't make the MCDonald's caravan, but should be there by 12 or 1. I will bring my small gas grill. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Phins Up,
Lee2

Thanks for the visual aid, Dan! See you, and Lee, and Stephanie, and Ellen, and most everyone else tomorrow!
