Basher Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Unfortunately many who planned to attend from Scankland have dropped by the wayside. So, if you think you could be sold on heading down to Vegoose, drop me a line. If anyone can sell you on it I can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basher Posted September 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Point number 1 in the pitch:Don't buy a festival ticket - I will have all the latenight tickets we would need, and you can buy a festival ticket for around $50 the day of the fest outside the gates.

Basher Posted September 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Point number 2 in the pitch:Flights from Detroit and Buffalo to Vegas are still going for around $200-$250 US return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 that's some great deals.i just took a $2400 cheque (retro pay) and put it on my credit card. It crossed my mind to jump on Vegoose, but I got a goal to reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 I've decided to skip Vegoose this year. Given how far it is, how expensive it'll be, how much vacation it'll use up, and how I'm not completely compatible with the Vegas experience, I'm staying home. (By comparison, I figure I could take two days of vacation, hop a flight to Chicago or NYC some Thursday, stay in a good hotel right downtown, see shows Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, and enjoy myself more than I would at Vegoose.)Your immense efforts are appreciated, Basher, and if I were going, I'd take advantage of them, but it's just not going to work for me this year.Aloha,BRAD (Basher's Really Amazing Deals) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basher Posted September 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Point number 3:If we can get 4 people total in my room, the TOTAL hotel price per person would be $155 for ALL 5 nights! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexis Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 up until point #3 i thought vegoose was giving you free tickets for all your referals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basher Posted September 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Unfortunately I am not able to finance trips to Vegoose for people, although I can pretty much guarantee that you can't do it any cheaper that I have co-ordinated with the same quality experience.

Basher Posted September 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Hey cowboy. I probably could, but am first dedicated to this. I'd love to do the dam, but want to ensure I leave vacation days next year for major poker tourneys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

headygouda Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 I'm just waiting for a latenight, full 2-set umphreys show to be announced, and I'm so there...at all costs. I would even go just for a couple nights. But otherwise, there is nothing (other than some poker) that would make me commit just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
