Do you guys normally split a room? Do boardies in general split a room. Courtyard seemed pretty cheap for a King or 2 Queens, like $105 a night. Doable by myself but since I'll be there 3 nights, splitting would mean $150 extra for books.

Let me put it to you this way.... if I wasnt sharing a room with others, I wouldnt even bother going. I spent a total of about 500 -/+ bucks last year... thats flight,hotel, food, and books. If I went by myself.. I wouldve ended up spending closer to 700-800 bucks and no free drinks from Roy

Last year Drew (wasonff) and I shared a room and Arex, Nik and Danny shared one as well, so yeah bunking together works.

By the way the Courtyard includes full buffet breakfast everyday, so we usually filled up late morning and your only food expense is dinner. I don't think Roy actually made if for breakfast though as it he was hard pressed to get out of bed for noon.

I think at the forum dinner I blew as much on drinks as i did on comics. Boy that Borock can drink....

 

 

Seriously, i think each year a new forumite should be buying drinks. Danny, it's your turn.

I have a king with a sleeper sofa. I will only be there Friday and Saturday night. If anyone wants to share let me know. I was told I snore

I should be there, helping out Moondog and Brad at their booth like I did last year....hopefully it will be for more than just preview night this time.

She's the reason I'm going!

[FlyingDonut]

I of course will be there, back for my 31st Chicago Comicon/WizardWorld. Damn, I'm old.

 

Forum dinner is Saturday, June 28, 2008 from 6PM - until they kick us out. Last year we were slackers and left at 2 AM. Previous three years 4 AM.

 

BTW, that's going to be a MASSIVE baseball weekend in Chicago:

 

June 27-28-29: Cubs at White Sox (3:05, TBA, 1:05)

Yanks vs Mets as well

Hey, after you told me and Lou where to go dancing we got back from downtown around 4:30am. If I knew you guys couldn't go without me I'd never have left....

 

 

Don't worry, greggy will save the day.
