Shot Show anyone?

[Henry Bowman]

January will be extremely busy for me, so I'm thinking about these things now. In 2006, we met here: http://www.mcmullansirishpub.com/location.html
That was fine for me. We had our own room. But when the band started, it was really hard for me to hear pax's soft voice with my old ears.

The seafood place in Orlando last year was good. No separate room, one long table, but they didn't rush us to leave.

There is a seafood buffet place in Vegas, but in '06 I heard bad things about the food there.

I really like meeting everyone and having time to engage in longer conversations with some. Last year I made name tags with screenname/realname (if I knew the real name) for those who had confirmed in advance. Did that seem like it was worth the trouble?

Myself, MrsTheRock and a couple others will be available to have dinner; Monday or Sunday night might be the best option.

I wonder if we will have somebody volunteer to give up stuff they don't own again.

Actually if its still open the chinese resturaunt we went to in 03 I believe we could actually talk with out to much noise.
The italian returant the year later was not the greatest for talking.
Will leave it up to you guys.

 

[Gary G23]

I actually liked the nametag thing we did last year.

 

[tinygnat219]

Nametags worked wonders!
Will be floating around, but not sure if will be able to have dinner. Plans are too fluid with me visiting my sister at the same time.

Zak, you do know that it runs Sat-Tues this year?

Do you happen to remember the name?

I'm glad to do the name tags again -- if someone can organize a list a few days in advance. I am slammed with work and travel until the last week of Jan.

Can someone please find and reserve a location?

 

[Zak Smith]

Yeah, but plans and all that..

 

[The Rock]

I'd be happy to make reservations a couple of days before hand.

Last time I hit the show in Vegas, we ended up at a Friday's. (No Joke!)

Since it has been literally years since I was in Vegas, I will have to give way to folks with more experience than I.

How about a meet during the show to finalize plans and trade phone #s?

[Henry Bowman]

TR, my experience (which is relatively limited) is that getting together once during the show is a miracle. A "planning meeting" would probably not be workable. Many people will have their schedule for the entire 4 days planned out by next week. We need to do the planning and phone number exchange here.

A "table for 20" at Friday's would be fine. A separate room is even better. Most people will prefer mainstream food at a reasonable price.

Live here in LV will hopefully make all 4 days.

[The Rock]

At one of the previous SHOTs, we were able to get everybody together and trade cell phone #s, etc.

Okay, so do we just want to suffer with Friday's or is that Chinese place a possibility?

Please PM or email me for my phone #.

So what are we gonna do for food? It HAS to be a buffet. Watching Larry and our partner Marcus go toe to toe in an eating contest is something everyone should see. However....... Keep you hands in your own space and it is not for the faint of heart.

 

[Hunter0924]

Have yall set a time and place for meeting in Vegas? I would like to get in on it myself.

 

[The Rock]

Unless anybody has a better suggestion, I say we try for a normal chain for Sunday night.

We can try to find a place with a private room; like last year's, we could even go there again. Hopefully they don't have a band.

Anyone up for Penn and Teller tomorrow night?

 

[Jeff22]

There have been reports on some of the other forums that some vendor is going to debut a .22 conversion unit for the Sig 226 at the SHOT show.

Did anybody see such a device?
