Big Country Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 As I am apparently going to be able to lock in an outrageously low airfare if I book now, I am probably going to be flying in on Thursday the 4th, landing around 9pm or so, and plan to stay until Monday the 8th, leaving at either noon or 3pm (wife would prefer noon, well, she would prefer coming home Sunday, I prefer the idea of late check out and really sleeping in) So, for any of you that have started looking, what are your travel schedules shaping up to be. Just trying to get a feel for who will be in town when. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Way to early for me. I would, in a perfect world, get there on Thursday and leave late Sunday or early Monday. Chances of that perfect world are not real good so I am something between that Thursday and Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just trying to get a feel for who will be in town when. I almost 100% certain I'll be arriving Thursday and leaving Monday. The flights I have looked at put me in Vegas either at 9am or around noon on Thursday. Either way, I'll be nice and toasty by 9pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Country Posted March 4, 2008 Author Share Posted March 4, 2008 Well, I couldnt resist the airfare. I land on Thursday evening about 9pm and leave on Monday just after noon. Round trip for under $140 including taxes and fees. Woohoo.. more beer/gambling/recreational money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocknrobn26 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I have a problem........ I have a wedding....a VERY important friend's daughter's wedding on the 5th of Sept.. I cannot/ will not miss it! She is like my 3rd daughter (her sister is like my 2nd daughter, who got married in Mexico and I couldn't attend!) for cry sake. It's also in WI, so we have to do an overnight. I will be looking into a flight out on Sat. the 6th (prolly a red-eye) and staying till Tuesday the 9th, but I'm still unsure. Bunzy, Alchico, Tbone, Skippy, Chargerz, Big John, Bier, Atomic, and several other's replies will encourage me to come if we can meet on Sunday somewhere for the games and maybe a nice dinner Sunday night. Anyone staying longer than Monday am?? I could stay till Wednesday. Damn....I missed last year because of my stoopid blownout shoulder!!! Encourage me...............I hate red-eyes, I'm getting old and don't travel well, and I'm not looking forward to a turnaround like that.

You'd think someone yer age wouldn't be such a whiny little bitch. We'll all be there on Sunday watching the games. Be there.

Skippy Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 I have a problem........ Didn't the anal wart creame work? For real here. You know it is hard for me to predict what my work schedule will be like that far ahead. In fact it is hard to predict in July. Having said that, I will likely sacrifice the Thursday for longer time to hang out down there. No matter what I can't see myself there past Tues afternoon at best but I will sure aim for being there over night Sunday. Now if we all agree to put the Steeler game on all the screens... I will try RR. No matter what you need to get down there as you know we will have enough fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isleseeya Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 what time of the year do you boys go to Vegas for WCOFF ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Like Soup Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 I'm not sure yet...I'm seeing how the 2008 H8Tank Love Boat Cruise fills out... I'll probably do a Thursday through Monday thing like the last two years. If I have a chick in tow (the one I'm thinking of would be game for the H8Tank Cruise), I may get in to town a day or two sooner. And BC...$140...I wouldn't pay that much!
