San Diego Con Dinner

[CKinSD]

We are planning to have it thursday night and at Boca, where we held it last year.

I need to get an idea of how many folks are planning to come to the dinner to ensure we reserve enough space.

We will be doing one giant check and you better bring Cash :buttrock:. No more dealing with special meals, private rooms or anything along those lines. We had a ton of requests for that last year but when the costs became apparant a lot of folks bailed. It almost cost me and closetnerd a lot of cash. so we do it this way now. it worked last year with no one having to cover bar tabs for those that took off as from the prior year.

The food is Italian and damn good.

No offense guys but I'm going to start editing this thread to keep it to just who's going to the dinner so we can get an accurate count. Once we have you on the list I'll be deleting those posts too. And for those who say they are going, don't be a putz and drop out without telling us.

[galactus]

Well, add in my friend Mike (he came last year) and his 3 daughters, so that's another 4 for dinner.

[CKinSD]

ok folks I'm going to make reservations at the end of the month for this. you better get on the list.

[Krypton Knight]

Charles, please add one more to my count, so it's KK+2. Thanks!

[ickwinzs]

Well, add in my friend Mike (he came last year) and his 3 daughters, so that's another 4 for dinner.

Check the first post on this thread. Thursday @ Boca's.

[Krypton Knight]

This is at Trattoria La Bocca on 5th Ave, right? http://www.unit24.com/x/indexlb.html

I wasn't sure if there's another Boca/Bocca restaurant around.

[d rod]

I'm in now. Caro (bender) won't know if she can make it Thursday night yet so she's up in the air as of right now.

[CKinSD]

no it is not KK. it is this one

705 sixth ave.... one street over

Well, if Caro's not there, I'm out. Who wants to see just you?? :laugh:

Cool.

Buca...Boca... Bocca. It's so confusing! :banghead:

[nbr3bagshotrow]

Charles, I don't think we've set up a time. Have you setup the reservations yet?

[rychehitman]

The more of you that can be in one place at one time, the easier it will be for Coca's master plan! :laugh:

[Daywalker]

The more of you that can be in one place at one time, the easier it will be for Coca's master plan! :laugh:
would the be his plan to get real high and streak ??? :laugh: :laugh:

[rychehitman]

No, try the reverse order :laugh:

[CKinSD]

ok folks no more folks. I'm setting this up in the next few days. I'm glad I waited because another 7 folks joined up for dinner in the past few days. OhH I've not updated the list.

[CKinSD]

Ok folks here it is.

Buca on thursday the 20th of July at 7:30pm
I've set the reservations for 45 and we are within two of that number right now.

due to the size of the group they will have us ordering off a special menu. that is being sent over to me next week and I'll post that information then.

[CKinSD]

stay tuned for news on the dinner, hope to have info ready by today or tomorrow.

[Léon]

Okay, when you have the menu make a poll and everyone on the forum can choose what you're gonna eat :laugh:

Didn't you say something about having to pay a deposit up front? If that's the case, everyone better be prepared to Paypal CKinSD for your dinners. If you don't pay up front, you ain't eating. And don't expect any last minute, "Can I come"? And don't expect refunds. The hassle is more than it's worth, believe me. And everyone is responsible for their own alcohol. Drew, Charles, and I have been stuck with the tab once too often.

[CKinSD]

yes hobbit Im trying to work out some final details before posting everything later this week.

dude to size of our party we will need to gauratee and give a deposit. working all that information out now.

[marvelboi77]

I wish I could be there, but I'm driving home after the con on Thursday, and driving back on Friday.

[congerking]

would love to be there too, but I'm with like 6 people and I doubt they will all want to go. :(

[MONSTER]

I'm bummed I have to miss out but there is no way I'll be able to sneak away from the the wife and kids. :banghead:

[Sam Wilson]

guys.

Umm.

How do we get from the con to the resturant? Can daywalker and I hitch a ride w/someone?

[nbr3bagshotrow]

705 sixth ave

dude just walk outside the big building and start up the streets into downtown. get on sixth and go north.... or walk with us as well is another plan.

[ANGRYCOMICMAN]

Why don't we all post what hotels each of us is staying at then we can go in groups from those hotels, or areas. I'm at the Embassy Suites. It's about a 3/4 Mile walk from there.

[d rod]

I'm at the Marriott Courtyard on 6th and Broadway. Dinner was cool and afterwards we went for a couple of drinks.
