I'll be coming the day of, I'm too cheap to get a room. Unless there is a camp site around, I'm down for camping

How many people are staying at the hotel? Cause one of the ideas for friday was to chill at my house and what not, but it is a bit of a drive from my house back to the hotel (about a 20-30 min drive. There are 2 ways. Expressway or through the woods. Neither are really fun late at night after a few adult beverages.). I know a lot of yall out of staters don't want to drink and drive or get lost late at a night. So what is preferred here by the people that will be here on friday?

Hotel party? or house party?

Driving late doesn't bother me much, I do that almost every weekend anyway. 30 min is nothing. Besides, I should have my HIDs in by then so night would be day on the roads :wootwoot:

I don't drink enough to have more than a buzz and won't drink anything at least an hour before I go to leave, so I'll be fine. I'll be a designated driver for a few guys if you wish, as long no one drinks enough to be puking - puke in my truck and you're walking back to the hotel and cleaning it in the morning :wink: :biggrin:

I'll be there Friday, it doesn't matter to me, I'll do whatever is appropriate for the conditions... 20-30 minutes travel is also no biggie for me.

We could hang out at the house party early, then caravan to the hotel later.

Sorry, I'm just of the idea that I want it all... :smile:

Just throwing this out there...there is a chicken joint across the road from the hotel called Dell Rhea's Chicken Basket that has been on a few food shows that is apparently pretty good. Any interest in going there for eats on Friday or Saturday?

On a completely unrelated note, I've never been to anything like this before and i apologize if I'm shy at first, I usually am in person.

It's ok, these things are 98% dudes, you don't wanna get too friendly too fast.
