Anyone else booked their hotel yet for March? Sara and I will be staying at the Hilton...the SIU hotel. It is a 4 star hotel, but we are getting it for $60 a night. Last year we were at the Millennium and it was a dump and a half, but the ISUR fans were great...until we had to play them.
Houndawg? ISUMatt? OBSF? Anyone else making the trip down? Should make it a CS.com MVC shindig.

We are also staying at the Hilton at the Ballpark, did the priceline name your own price thing for 50 bucks. Can't beat it.
Matt is for sure not coming this year.
The rest of our ISU group I'm pretty sure will be at the Millenium again, not sure, we're all sort of doing our own thing this year instead of as a group. Last year was a huge friggin' mess from the get go. I/we ended up getting screwed out of a couple of hundred bucks by a "friend".

We will need to meet up at some point then. Last year we went to the piano bar and had a freaking blast.
Also, Matt, if you read this...what the hell?
Bump for anyone else?

I am very curious how you got screwed over here?
Much less for a
couple of hundred bucks by a "friend".

I have been unemployed for a yr now, dont wanna spend money on tickets or hotel, nor Do I want to ask my wife to take of work, or get a sitter to pay while I am gone!!
We also went to the Big Bang on Thursday Night, thought of all the years I have gone to STL, it was the worst one...Just switching to the Millenium meant I had tyo pay for breakfast, pay for internet, no pool or hot tub...Just wasnt as good as the previous years at the Drury...If I was going, Id spend the extra bucks and make sure I had a hot tub and complimentary breakfast and free internet for my room!!!

We went to the Big Bang on Friday night, and I was hung over until half time of the UNI game the next day, which came around 2 o'clock...ish that Saturday afternoon.
Sara and I got the all session pass but we are going to sell the sessions UNI isn't in to people for face value.
The Millenium sucked balls and we will never go back there again. Our room smelled like a rotting carcass, I'm not kidding. We told the front desk and they said that's just they way the hotel smells. If that is true and all the other rooms smelled that way they need to be shut down

It was our first trip to St. Louis as well. Our GPS really helped, although pretty much everything was walking distance. If we weren't so tight on money there are so many restaurants I want to try.
