    Sounds like I need to crap or get off the pot before all the cheap hotel rooms are booked.

    Went ahead and booked a hotel this morning, so if you want to be me as a tentative you can. Figured it made more sense to book the hotel and cancel than it did to wait until the last minute and pay 3x the going rate.

    Frank, we will definitely have to exchange phone numbers as I am always down for some good fried chicken. I forget, do they have a night session at LL? I'm not a fan of night play at all.

    I talked to my partner in crime this morning. We've decided to get chicken on Friday night and hang with you guys on Saturday night.

    Good plan, booking the hotel.

    You're more than welcome to get chicken with us. However, we will probably go for chicken on Friday night, now.

    If you guys want to PM me your email addresses, I'll get a google spreadsheet started for a phone list and share it with all of you.

    I'll probably stop at the field and play the pump/pistol game on Friday night. Guess it depends on what time you guys are going or what. Either way is cool. Joliet actually has a fair amount of decent places to eat.

    Just a heads up, if its the motel 6 off I-80 your in for a adventure. Oh, and bring your own towels and soap and shampoo, they wont give you any. There's a gas station on the other side of the same parking lot, and they advise you to not walk to the gas station after dark or you will get robbed. On the bright side a local would probably give you a half & half for $10....

    lot of truth there. First year i went to LL i stayed at the Holiday Inn on the west side of Larkin. Went to the gas station in the evening to get some smokes. yeah.....pretty sketchy when the day light fades.
    Over where i stay now, off Riverboat is like night and day compared to that area.

    Gary is on a level all its own. But as with all larger cities there are bad...and not so bad areas. Age and experience allows you to know when to keep one chambered.....or on reserve.

Its in a better area and there is a lot better places around it for food etc. Might be worth the extra $15 to not get mugged or sleep in hooker jiz.

    I-55 area is much better. Both the motel 6 and super 8 off I-55 are just fine. Tilted kilt is right across the street at the mall too. So you can get your old man dirty creep on if you so choose.

    ummm, so since I haven't booked yet, I'll think I will go to the super 8 or the other one close to that! Thanks for the heads up. I mean, I'll be packing when I'm out and about, but don't really want to be in an area where there's a good chance I'll need to use it. lol Also, cheap hookers only sound good on paper.

    Because walking around in a seedy neighborhood carrying a few thousand dollars worth of paintball guns is always a good idea..... Besides sleeping on crusty sheets, this was the other reason I switched to the I55 location.

    Are any of you bringing radios this year? If so, what kind? I have a couple Motorola Talkabouts that I keep bringing and then not using because everyone seems to use Midlands.
