Logistics question... When everyone stays off-site, how do you get to your hotel? Are there cabs that run all night?? We have stayed in RVs and at Comfort Suites. Love the convenience of CS and plan to stay again this year, but hate the price gauging. Regardless, ready to Phlock to Phrisco!

I think CS is sold out, I heard it sold out on the first rumor last week. Here is the thing, parking is at least $25 and the cab to the hotel is way less. I want to say you can round trip it for the price of parking. Some hotels run shuttles for cheaper, or did two years ago. We had a designated driver last year who took us all back to the Aloft.
As to the date, I have had a FIFTH confirmation (unofficial of course) but this one was the strongest yet. The Marriott I heard for sure was the Marriott Legacy.

For CS we had to submit a reservation form AND our credit card information to be run immediately upon confirmation after a date is announced. They aren't even taking any reservations for any weekend in May. They said they go by date and time the request was received. At the time we were about 70th in line for 120ish rooms -- I HOPE. Two nights for more than $500 is painful, but all of our other phriends will be staying in the lot, so we hate to leave a good time

That's freaking ridiculous!!! Just down the road in Addison you can get poolside at LaQuinta for $ 79.00 a night.

Yes, I do believe Frisco needs to be made "official" soon before I get into trouble at work! Buffett News is blocked on my work computer, so I keep checking the site from my phone. Dear Boss, I swear I am not texting

Hey BC....is Aunt...ah crap...is it Patty? Coming? I had some to drink last year, didn't write stuff down
Stacey? Hell yes! There is no way she would let me leave her in KS while we did Buffett in TX. Hoping the boys will be making it again as well.
If they would just announce already, we would get it booked.

Sounds good to me- I have to miss Phins to the West the previous weekend because my daughter graduates, but I'm allowed to skip my own graduation!
