SoCali Jam 08!

FlexThis · Post by **FlexThis** » 30 Jan 2008 12:12

Already Confirmed as I live about 7 miles from Tony. But want to formally announce my attendance.

So listen up!!!

If you can make it - AWESOME! If you can't - TRY TO MAKE IT!!!

This may be your last chance to Shred out the biggest MOUTH in footbag in Southern California. I will be there trying to SHRED YOU OUT!

This is also your chance to meet legendary stitcher and BAP member Richard "Renegade" Abshire - and a little birdie told me that Jason "Shapeshifter" Crook might make a Cameo as well.

Thanks guys for organizing this event. We have needed this for over 5 years and we don't want to disappoint as it gets more difficult to stay current in footbag when your age keeps creeping up.

It will be a blast for sure!

We need someone to be super kind to us and offer us a ride from the greyhound station in like 4 hours, or we most likely won't be able to come. We also the need the phone numbers of those people to, for our parents to talk to. Someone please help us.

thank you so much. This is awesome.

Alright I've been thinking about it and this event is just too tempting to resist. The plane tickets aren't too terrible, but they're cheapest if I come on Wednesday evening and leave on Tuesday morning. I would like crash space for Wednesday, Thursday, and Monday nights if at all possible. I'm a great house guest! Also possibly getting into a room at the hotel with some people, who's at the hotel?

Who wants to stay with me and Evan?

I'll take you up on that offer, Ben. Slumber party!

EoghanMcDowell · Post by **EoghanMcDowell** » 30 Jan 2008 21:59

Add Cale and I to the confirmed list

scott behmer · Post by **scott behmer** » 30 Jan 2008 22:32

I too will take you up on that offer Ben, I'm saying it here in case you don't check your pm's. Also I'm definitely down for Sunday night.

Looks like I am going to be able to make it!!! I do need somewhere to crash though if there is an open spot for one. Flash is not coming, sorry everyone, just going to be me.

So, we have Emily and Scott staying with us. We have floor space if anyone still needs a place to stay. I reserved the room today for Fri, Sat, and Sun night. I actually got 15% off for staying at least 3 days. Score! We can take a max of 2 more people.

Aidan, you can stay with us if you want.

scott behmer · Post by **scott behmer** » 31 Jan 2008 08:51

When are people arriving and leaving? The cheapest plane tickets for me are Wednesday night to Tuesday morning but i might do Thursday night instead, depending on what everybody else is doing.

professor · Post by **professor** » 31 Jan 2008 10:33

Evan and I will be leaving Vegas around noon on Friday. So, we should be at the hotel by 5. We'll leave the event Monday sometime.

Anyone up for some Fire Hack at this jam? I can bring mine.

Anne · Post by **Anne** » 31 Jan 2008 11:43

Hey Ben,

I wanna play slumberparty too!!! Don't know you, but I'm sure you guys are cool, if Emily want's to stay in the room! So a floors space for me in that room would be great!!

See you guys soon.. can't wait!

\Anne

Anne · Post by **Anne** » 31 Jan 2008 11:45

And the floor.. I'll see if I can get in contact with my Danish pal today (he's landing in LAX this afternoon) to hear if he can confirm.. if he can, I'm SURE he'd love a floorspace in the room too... will get back to you on that one later!

I'm arriving some time Friday, probably early, and I still don't know when I'll be leaving Sun/Mon.

professor · Post by **professor** » 31 Jan 2008 12:28

I can only take 6 people in my room. If Aidan stays with us, that'll make 5. So, you can stay with us Anne, but I can't take another person. Someone should reserve another room for the others that need a place to stay.

scott behmer · Post by **scott behmer** » 01 Feb 2008 01:41

Well, it looks like in the last six hours my flight options have been seriously screwed over. The cost of the flight has gone up, I have to fly with airlines I don't know or trust, and I have to connect in Denver.......Denver?? instead of a direct flight. However, nothing can keep me away, I'm still coming. I have my plane tickets, see everybody soon.

Moxie · Post by **Moxie** » 01 Feb 2008 11:47

Scott, you're a trooper. I went to CSS once and had a layover in CHICAGO. San Jose>CHICAGO>Denver. Dude...

I reserved a room with 2 queen beds so anyone who wants to stay with me should PM me or post here. Dustin's already in. Anne, I think I'm stealing you from Ben's room.

Anne · Post by **Anne** » 01 Feb 2008 17:26

Man.. I hate being stolen!!! But I guess that's just the name of the game in California!! No worries.. I'm with you Emily!
