This room is on the lower level around the corner from the sports bar. She can't hold it without money so we are at the mercy of anyone else wanting it with cash to give her.

You can count us in

I'm assuming we can find a few members that have previous tending experience or we are all honorable right?

Or do we need to buy booze from them in order to have booze in the room?

Good idea Bobby, but I am sure that the hotel will not go for it. They make too much money with their cash bar thingie. Now the hotel would be smart to just let you use the room and not disturb the guests, but then again, that makes too much sense.

Jeff_in_KC · 12-11-2010, 05:28 PM

I asked, Bobby and they said no. Gotta be their stuff. Like Big Dog says, it would make too much sense for them to let us do that and not bother all the other guests! I'm calling Monday to see if we can hold it with a credit card and cancel if we don't have the interest from at least 125 people. I think we're up to about 20 now! LOL! Probably should open it up to any "forum" since we want more $$$ to go to Scottie's foundation, ya think? I don't have a problem with it. For now, if you have a pay pal account, how about we start collecting? I'd say we need to let them know for sure by the end of the year. What do you all think per head? $5 or $10?

Chime in Guys we need to hear from more of you

Jeff_in_KC · 12-12-2010, 09:18 AM

My PayPal email is [email protected] if anyone wants to get it rolling. You don't have to put the Q in EmbarQmail in caps but I did here because it gets mistaken a lot otherwise. I'll send everyone who sends in a confirmation. as a "ticket". If we don't get enough, I'll refund your money as soon as we make that decision.

Hey it looks like we have 14 for our table of ten! Getting two tables now - need six more. Anyone interested?

Joe, got your message on Facebook. No, don't need to do anything yet. Most at our table(s) members have paid individually to KCBS. KCBS said we can "bunch them into tables" once we get all we need.
