    @UZPlayer - I actually came up with the name tags, & I thought they were a really good idea! Why didn't you like them?

    In an unrelated note - I am planning on going all weekend. Last week I had an opportunity to eat at Maggiano's in Atlanta, GA. It is an excellent Italian restaurant. I just finished my leftovers (they have huge portions), and it was so good I was wishing I could go again. It turns out the restaurant is a chain, and they have one in King of Prussia, PA! I think King of Prussia is where PC4 is held.

    Leading to the obvious question:
    Would any of you possibly be interested in getting together to go there for a late dinner one night after PhillyClassic?

    Hmm.. maybe we can take over the forum de jour with this discussion for a bit!
    We all certainly need to make plans to meet up again this year I vote for a bigger bar than the one in the hotel *lol*

    I'm definitely in for the trip this year. I almost went to last year's last minute with a couple of guys from down here in Cincy whom help with the Cinciclassic show, but I decided not to ... and I definitely wish I did. If anyone wants to go in on carpooling or sharing expenses from around here, I'm game since I'm sure some of the Cinciclassic crew will want to make the trip.

    Doubt I'll get a table, but I still want to make the trip and hang out for a weekend no doubt, and even see some people I've known on the online forums like uz.

    Hmm.. here's a question, can someone answer it for me?
    When searching for local hotel info, etc, I come across TWO hotel listings for the convention center..
    The first one is: http://www.radisson.com/kingofprussiapa for the Radisson, ULTRA expensive.
    The second is for: http://www.scanticonvalleyforge.com/ the Scantion? From the addresses, it looks like the two are right next door? Most of the links are dead on the second, except for the convention center, which, strangely, takes you to the first link.. was this the old name of the hotel maybe?

    Here are some other nearby hotels, links, & info:

    Default Philly or bust...

    Gezz...already talking about the PhilyClassic ? Heh, heh, heh...

    Like Sniper000_2000 said, we (me, him and Lady Jaye) should be there but i don't think we'll stay for sunday since most of us works
    on monday and we have at least a 9 hours drive (me it's 12 hours)
    just to get to the PhillyClassic.

    Some of the C.C.J.V.Q. members will be discussing this in 4 days
    since we have a club's meeting near Quebec City this coming saturday.

    And yeah, POG is right, hope will have a bigger bar next time, need
    some booze for getting a good night sleep !!! And the worst
    thing is i will need a van for all the stuff i'll bring to trade or sell, and
    i mean it since i'll be getting rid-off 3/4 of my collection very soon.

    Hope i'll not have any problems with the border...isssshhhh.....

    I have never heard of the Scantion. However, any of those others are good, pretty much any with K of P address will be within minutes of the VFCC. Depending on when and where you'll be, I might be able to hook people up with rides to the center when I come in in the mornings.

    I of course will be staying at a nice, out of the way little place called "Mark's Mommy's House". I hear the cooking's good

    Oh, I'm not worried about rides We're driving down from Maine, so we'll have a car with us, and we'll probably be staying at the Sleep Inn again like last year. Much better prices, and it's just down the road a bit.

    It's likely that I'll be finding my way there this year....probably only for one day though....just drive over, do what I have to do, drive home. With any luck I'll still get to meet some DPers though!
