rtw88 Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 For those that don't have to shell out for airfare, how much dough should I plan on trying to save? I'll have a new baby, so I won't be buying a lot of records, I'd like to room with someone, so I'm just curious how much entry and everything is. Also, if anyone wants to bunk with me, I'm totally non-obnoxious and (usually) don't pee in the hall. I think tickets last year were $55 for the weekend. I'm sure you'll be able to get a hotel room with a couple guys for cheap. I'd recommend staying somewhere other than the holiday inn if you're looking for cheap, and don't care about being in the middle of the party. You can eat pretty cheaply here, so that shouldn't be a problem. Minus gas costs, I bet you could have a pretty rockin' weekend for $200-300.

pjaicomo Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Yeah, but then again, you might spend that much on vinylz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadmonkey Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I want to go soo bad this year... Hopefully I can make it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casey Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Yeah, but then again, you might spend that much on vinylz. I might set aside $100 or so for vinylz, but, as I mentioned, I'll have a two-month old at that point, so need to keep expenses down.

rtw88 Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I've never eaten at Gator Dawgs. All you out of town dudes should go to Buddha Belly when you come in. That stuff is sooo good. Just make sure you order spice level 4 or below, it's hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
