Re: Who is going to Great Woods, July 19th?
Do most people here park in the VIP lot or the regular lot?

Re: Who is going to Great Woods, July 19th?
Most of the BNers park in the regular lot. (there is a very strict strategy and coordination that goes into that) Ill have a group of around 30 or so up in the VIP. All are welcome.

No worries, I'm happy to help.drunkpirate66 wrote:Great Woods Buffett used to be a marathon. Depending on how far back you go Jimmy used to do 4 shows in a row. When it was down to two shows at Great Woods for many years you could still get in the parking lot around 8AM. Now its one show and the lots open at 11AM. I call that a sprint. Gotta push it a little to get a strong buzz by mid afternoon.irshfiregrl wrote:several times this day I have to tell myself 1) Its a marathon, not a sprint. 2) go eat something!

Re: Who is going to Great Woods, July 19th?
Yes. 495 is a massive loop. 95 (128) from the Pike is more a direct shot down to the Mansfield area. Getting on 495 from where it merges with 95 makes sense. But, again, its only a few minutes at most. Go whichever way the GPS points. You'll get there.lime rickie wrote:From PA?drunkpirate66 wrote:Or 95 (128) south to 495 South.

Re: Who is going to Great Woods, July 19th?
you have to pay to park in the VIP lot , I think it's 40.00 and has to be purchased through TM , not sure if you can pay to park there the day of the show.MAPhinPhan wrote:Do most people here park in the VIP lot or the regular lot?

Of all the things you've been called over the years, Tommy, that would have been my last guess.

what have I been called??....I've mellowed with old age I guess.....I've always, when drinking try to have sense of control , I guess it's the job now ( DUI gets me fired) , bartending and working security for shows at the Theatre I work at. You see how others act when they get out of control. Not that I won't party with the best of them , just know what is going on around me at all times.

A week from today it will all be a blurry memory
Still meeting at Cork's lot around 10AM to setup the caravan?
So where is the preferred lot location this year (in the event we don't get to the meeting lot on time or we get split up again)?
On the right near the RV's?
And what about the dead cars and what exactly IS a dead car?
