Wondering if we(Steve and Margaret) could get some info and help for our possible 1st out of area road trip to see JB. We'd be flying in to Raleigh on monday morning and were wondering what their is to do in town and if we could crash a tailgate of Bn's. We of course would contribute to the cost of the taigate. Any info on hotels or whether we should rent a car or can we make it around by cabs or public transportation would be great. We have traveled to Philly\Camden4x's, AC2x's, Mohegan Sun plus our local venues Jones Beach2x's and MSG2x's, but not having any of our own tailgating gear would leave us feeling naked. Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks

Welcome! Several peeps are staying at a Best Western that's about 4 miles from venue. I scoped it out this weekend...pretty straight shot. If you search Best Western online, it's the one on New Bern Road. Sorry, but I don't have any other details. And of COURSE you're welcome to join the BN gang!!!
Thanks for all the info.
We're waiting for airfare to go down before making any firm plans.
Here's hoping we can make it down for the show.
only 2 more months!!!
Looking forward to meeting you in Raleigh!
Just booked flights. price went from 189 to 201 down to 139 then up to 149 and we just booked now we need a hotel to stay. then we need to get tickets. its starting to fall into place.
Awesome!

Question -
Are we all going to try and tailgate together? Is there some secret meeting that I am missing? My boyfriend Jay and are coming. I'd like for him to at least meet a few of the BN crew...

I vote for ORGANIZING (yes, I know it's a bad word) a tailgate. Let's meet someplace and go in together. I'd like to get my contingent from my PHC involved to, but need to give them the plan. I have a suggestion of a good place to meet (not meat) nearby if anyone is interested...

I would like to park the RV around where I have the yellow spot.
There are so many variables that go into making this possible. ie parking lot attendants, gate opening times etc
