    We'll need spotters and decoys!

    Well since you mentioned it, I also have connections inside the Austin police dept as well, so I could maybe workout something there too.

    I have emailed Mike, the site creator, basically asking for permission for something like this to be held, but I think it would be awesome, and if permission is granted (you know, legality and all) gonna start working on this, have already had some offers to help put this thing together, and see what we can do.

    It would be nice to have a forum called "Regional" and then broken down to places like "West Coast", "East Coast" "Southern", "New England", ect where local members of those areas could post and maybe start own get togethers if they wanted to.

    I totally like this idea!

    I would attend one in Chicago - maybe we could all have one on the same day in our respective areas and link up via the web or something. *says the girl who has no idea how to link up via the web or something

    I am interested in all ideas, and anyone who wants to help make this a reality, have tons of ideas on how to make this work and what to do with it, but looking for all kinds of opinions.

    I am all for Texas... but do me and my Canadian countrymen a favor? Can we please have it in the middle of winter? I want to go somewhere warm in December, January or February...

    It could boost the attendance from Canada and the northern states! I know a few North Dakotans and Minnesotans that would be game!

    A 5K & 10 K in the morning would be great too.

    Of course, I am originally from Michigan, and I know the winters stink, and trust me, unless you wanna spend time in 100 degree weather, summers maybe a lil hot, I was thinking next spring

    Thats a great idea, and actually Austin has those like biweekly to monthly, something we could totally do

    If you seen the opening of this, Austin has over 200 bars on one street, think that would be plenty of booze, just saying :drinker: :drinker:

    Yeah, I was thinking of revolving places, again, the first year, I suggested Austin, TX, cause well, it is my idea, LOL, but I just know of so many places and things that could go on here, and hopefully with some help, get it all organized so it can truely take place.

    We are gonna need sponsors (booths) for this. Try and get a hold of some of these ads from the site - probably will have to get Mike involved for that.
