How long is the drive out there?
|
|
|
From the cow patch its 9 1/2 to 10 hours
|
|
|
But it feels like just minutes when you have as much fun as we did last time!
|
|
|
Linda, you would have a really good chance at winning am
|
|
|
Oooh so tempting. I'll have to think about it for awhile...
|
|
|
Haha. I think if any more ringers from Alberta won Am they would NEVER let us back in town.
|
|
|
What ringer? 
|
|
|
Anyone from Calgary thinking of going?
|
|
|
This is a really fun tournament. The venue is excellent. The tournament room is right in the hotel and there is a beer store just outside the hotel. We had a great time the last time we went. All the guys and girls down in the PNW were awesome, plus they have some pretty good foosers there. No boom boom room but its still a fun tournament.
|
|
|
Yes the venue is awesome, lots of food close by plus a macs or 711 in the parking lot, the hotel has an outdoor pool, the breakfast buffet is incredible, lots of reasons to attend.
|
|
|
I'm seriously considering it...
A month to go still, so there's time to decide
|
|
|
You could play in six events Linda. Entry fees are pretty low.
|
|
|
Yeah that was a pro and con of going. Cheap entries and 6 events is great, but 6 events in 2-3 days is also quite a bit.
Gotta weight out fuel costs, time, hotel etc.
How many of the E-town folks are going?
|
|
|
I don't know that it has been decided by everyone, but I think the following are quite likely:
Ben
Christian
Simon
Will
|
|
|
Oh wait....7 events if you include Mixed. EEk that's alot of events
|
|
|
You should skip at least 1 event, maybe 2.
|

Copied from the Washington message board.
They want an appearance from Joey and Matt! What do you think guys???

Hey Alberta, you bringing those two guys that played the Open Singles final? They were fun to watch!
|
|
|
It would be sweet to have Joey show up at this tournament. They wouldn't know what hit them
|
|

I'll talk to my people and see if I can SQUEEZE Washington State into my schedule.Oprah called.I turned her down.
Seriously,if time permits me,I will make an honest effort to attend that cakewalk,but I can't make any
promises.
P.S.The last time I was in Washington(Seattle,in particular),my self and Doug McCarthy beat out Larry Chesboro et al in the final.It was plus 35 all weekend,no air conditioning,and the enviornment,possibly due to my legendary charm,was hostile--just the way I like it!!!The month prior to that,Gary and I had been playing tennis 5 days a week,2-3 hours per day.So when I knew the weather was going to be hot and humid,I knew I had a good chance of winning.

I'm still on the fence here but if Joey decides to go then that lead me to off-fence.
