So looking at my schedule I'm arriving Mid Afternoon Saturday and all the festivities start noontime on Sunday. So who's arriving Saturday night and what do you want to do?

Coworker & I are arriving Saturday morning, so we will really need something to do! I'm not sure whether we'll have a rental car.

She wants to go to the circus. I'm up for pretty much anything (the cheaper the better ;)

I'm not getting in till Sunday at 2pm, if you're still up drinking I'll join you at a sports bar to watch the last quarter of the Packers game.

My coworker and I will arrive Saturday afternoon. No rental car, just the shuttle to the hotel. :-P

I'm sure we'll be up for whatever. When ideas start flowing, I'll run them by her, too.

After the rental bill at eduWEB... I pulled the plug on trying to rent a car before even asking the boss man.

Who cares we can sit around the bar like a bunch of tech geeks talking jargon that nobody else understands... I'll be sure to pack the pocket protector!

uh... on second thought... yeah we'll find something a little more entertaining to do than that. Just want to start getting a head count.

I found a rental deal that would only run $50 more than the taxi to/from the airport. If I can still get it, I think I will. I hate relying on shuttles & taxis. The boss did not approve it but it might still be worthwhile. Maybe we'll get lucky & they'll bump us up to something that can hold all the stranded geeks at once ;)

I can't find anywhere near that good a deal anymore - should have jumped on it last month!! I guess we will be stranded at the hotel like the rest - we are at the University Plaza hotel. Anyone know offhand if it is walking distance to the other hotel?

I'm sure it is.

Worst case scenario they better have a bar. :)

My scouting run to Springfield identified a nice downtown with at least two micro breweries. The Monday late night place would be good to hit more than once. http://www.highedweb.org/2008/specialevents.aspx

Sadly, I'm not getting until Sunday. :(

I guess we will just have to take pictures so you can write up a cartoon of the funness for later. ;)

Yes I just made up the word funness

I'm arriving Saturday evening as well. If something gets decided, let me know and I'd love to crash the party! I also don't have a car but it looks like there are a couple bars in the vicinity of the Holiday I.... Anyone from the area have any suggestions? Also, what's the taxi situation in Springfield?
