Best chance is at the GABF! Extra bonus in Denver the same weekend.
I'm clearing the decks and think I'll be able to make it.

GABF is sold out to the general public. Tickets weren't inexpensive neither. So, just as well IMO.

Best Sir,

Yeah, I'm gonna go out on a limb here but I think the Beer fest just may bring more hot chicks than RMAF. How unfortunate....what's wrong with our hobby!!!????

I will probably go again this year. I've only missed maybe 2 or 3 of them since they started way back when - great show :-)

No alcohol sold in the stadium but plenty consumed at the tailgates surrounding it. That is one reason I prefer the early starts rather than 3:30 or a night game.

Looking better for me to make the trip this year......wife is planning on making the trip with her girl friends and little ones, so this may work out. We'll have to get a head count and do some planning as we get closer to September!

Neat -- thought we'd tally up a headcount around the 8th of September -- that puts it 4 weeks out from then.

Best Sir,

Bob
