American Royal Q&A

One another note, anyone parked anywhere near Tippy Canoe ... make sure you don't start setting up - especially fencing - until Joe Canoe has put his 5th wheel in his spot :biggrin:

The wheels on my 5th wheel eat fencing and baricades for breakfast:shock:

I'm leaving at the butt crack of dawn Thursday hoping to avoid any fencing issues...as long as I beat Jack's Old South in from GA I should be good.

Watching you shrug your shoulders after taking down the house at the Qlossal was classic.

Here in KS & MO the weather always changes. Pack for Mid-60s for the days and mid-40s for the nights. You also might want to pack a rain jacket....just in case.

Whats a guy from New York know about KC weather? Probably more than me.:-D Hope you are right about Thursday.

Or if you want to get technical, how about an hour by hour forecast, straight from the source(NOAA)?

So we shouldnt start our party until friday at 8:00? I mean we shouldnt invite guests until then.

Hotel Opening

Hello,

I know all the hotels in the area are sold out so I wanted to post that I had to cancel my reservation for the night of October 2nd for 1night at the Best Western Seville on Main St. 4.4 miles away. If you are interested send me a message I am a travel agent I can contact the manager for you I am pretty sure if you just check their website it will show sold out but I know they have a room for that night.

Thanks,
Becky

I can tell you that we hooked up Thurs. morning last year and had power.

I would not hook up a fridge with contest meat in it and expect it to run all night without being on site. If your neighbor pulls in and blows the circuit.....

If you just want to get the fridge cooled down you should be fine.

We'll make an exception to the "No Pictures, Didn't Happen" rule on this one.

Is it tough to get cabs from the Royal at night? I was hoping to hang out and have some beers Thursday night but don't want to drive back to the hotel.

Where's your hotel?

It's not Manhattan, I'd have a number or two in my cell if you don't want to wait.

Cab rides are easy to come by. There's a taxi stand right at the Royal.

Really? I didn't know that. I'm observant.

With talk of rooms and such ... We are short a few guys this week, so I unpacked two of our cots. Anyone need them?

There is a bar a couple blocks away from Gate A. We walked there and only had time for one drink before the cab was there last year.

Anyone staying down there Wednesday night?
