Convention - Friday Evening
« on: July 03, 2008, 02:30:14 PM »
Alright everyone... here's the scoop for Friday July 25th at the convention:

We're going to do 4 large pizzas, wings (hot and mild), Make your own meatball mini subs, and Spinach Artichoke dip.  We'll have a corner of the restaurant right by the bar, with the food all set up on tables for us!

Drink specials will be $2 domestic drafts and $3 mixed drinks and bombs (but not Irish Car Bombs).

Cost per person is going to be about $12.

The venue is the Blackthorn Grille and we'll start at 7...

The bus ride from O'Hare to McHenry is 41 miles.....I live 45 miles from the Denver Airport, so I'm used to that

McHenry is only 14 miles from the restaurant....so that's not a HUGE imposition on Mr. Ruske

So unless otherwise advised I'll start zeroing in on Coach USA from O'Hare to McHenry

In a bacon and eggs breakfast, the chicken is involved, but the pig is committed. BE THE PIG!!!

Awesome!  So then if I head to Chicago to do some touring and leave downtown on the train around 3:30 or 4 I should be getting back to your place with some time to spare right?

Yeah, I was thinking of meeting up to head to out of town together but when I saw how long it'd take to get from the airport there I realized it probably wasn't reasonable.

So just 3 weeks to go.  Is everyone ready?
