January 3, 200521 yr Does the hotel allow people who aren't staying at the hotel to use their valet service if they are attending Soxfest or no?

January 3, 200521 yr Author QUOTE(Steff @ Jan 3, 2005 -> 10:41 AM) Yes they do. Beware, parking is $32 a day if you aren't staying at the hotel. It is $16 if you are staying. At least thats what it was last year.

I'm going to be gone all next week so if there's an interest in that let me know this week and I'll set it up for Saturday night (the 15th) FYI.. that would likely be a $50-$70 per person dinner.

I thought the dinner was a lot of fun, but I can understand the cost being a kick in the teeth Maybe we should try a gathering in someone's room? A BYOB kind of affair?

January 3, 200521 yr I'm not against gathering in a room, on the condition that Willie brings some of his fine young ladies for me and Gage.

Seriously, any other ideas? Hoolihans is connected to the Hyatt, and they are much cheaper, but I don't know how late they are open.

Hoolihans is connected to the Hyatt, and they are much cheaper, but I don't know how late they are open. Hoolihans is open fairly late I believe, I went there a few times last year to eat. The main thing I remember sucking about the bar last year is I hardly got to talk to anyone who was sitting down (mike, iwritecode) because I had nowhere to sit down. I basically only remember talking to Steff because she was up and about helping me get my picture with Estey. If we meet up there again we need to find somewhere for people to sit.

Hoolihans is connected to the Hyatt, and they are much cheaper, but I don't know how late they are open. How many are really interested in the "family party"..? That kind of sets the time frame. Jim and I don't care either way. Houlihan's is fine. Still gonna be about $40 a person (with drinks and app's). Who from here is intersted..? And since when are skanks from the local boobie bar considered "fine"??

I basically only remember talking to Steff because she was up and about helping me get my picture with Estey. If we meet up there again we need to find somewhere for people to sit. Which is why I suggest getting there earlier than last year for sure. Dinner was late - like 8:30 iirc. If we do that again we should eat at like 6ish.
January 3, 200521 yr I definitely want to meet up, I am going to have two friends with me plus Gage, so as long as they want to go, I am down for just about anything within reason.

I would anticipate a large group so we'll have to make reservations.. I'm sure we can get a # by the end of the week and I'll set things up if H's is good with everyone.
