2007 Dallas SJ outing (Canceled)

Re: 2007 Dallas SJ outing (July 20-22)

Just a suggestion gang. Most rental agencies offer minivans. If a bunch of you chip in for one, your mobility could be solved at reasonable expense.

 

Re: 2007 Dallas SJ outing (July 20-22)

And if there is going to be some sort of Dallas/FW field trip, paying for parking for one van and the weekend rental fee may be cheaper than paying for three or four drivers' parking and gas.

 

Re: 2007 Dallas SJ outing (July 20-22)

Right now, I'm looking at a guest list (with ifs) of about 12-14, but I'm still taking PMs of course. PLEASE let me know if you're even a chance of going. I'm not sure that many people fit in a minivan.

And Football_Bat, if you want to find a hotel for cheap, since you know the area, that would be a great help. I volunteered to help Inky because I know he's super busy, but I'm going blind. I basically went to google maps, plotted bars, then hotels to see what was close. That's all I have to go by.

Please help?

What kind of seats are being looked at for the game(s)? Just curious, because The Ballpark can be pretty pricey.

 

Re: 2007 Dallas SJ outing (July 20-22)

Cheap seats. It's the SportsJournalists.com tradition.

GOLA!!!!!!

Oh yeah ... wicked's right. Cheap is best.

We're up so high even the beer man doesn't wanna come up there.

 

Re: 2007 Dallas SJ outing (July 20-22)

That's good. Because I just dropped $19 a ticket for lower deck outfield seats for the Yankees game Wednesday.

 

Re: 2007 Dallas SJ outing (July 20-22)

Theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Yankees lose!

 

Re: 2007 Dallas SJ outing (July 20-22)

Good to see I leave the board for four days and this is the first thing I read.

 

Re: 2007 Dallas SJ outing (July 20-22)

Next time, I'll take it easy on you.

Can't someone just cash in all their Marriott points, get like five hotel rooms for free and help us out on the hotel expenses?

(I can dream, can't I?)

 

Re: 2007 Dallas SJ outing (July 20-22)

That would be nice. I'm sure the rest of the group will be staying at the Hilton and me and the folks from my paper will be at the Motel 6.

I will say this: Moddy hooked us up sweet for D.C. TO wasn't a shabby place, either, just small.
