sorry to hear that Janis :(

**UPDATE**
:arrow: what was originally expected to be a 3000-4000 spectator event has turned into a 10,000-15,000 spectator event
:arrow: JULY 15TH is your LAST day to reserve a hotel room at the sponsor hotel!!! You don't need to pay you just need to call them and reserve a room
:arrow: we now have 4 different TV stations and 4 different radio stations that will be present at the event, they have donated $15,000 over the next 2 years to the event to make it as BIG as possible
:arrow: It would be REALLY nice if players could pre-register for the us open ASAP, you don't need to pay right now, but at least give us a head count for how many people are going to show up to this thing.

hype hype hype!!! :D

Holy Koala Rockets.

Nice job Zeb. Seriously. I suppose John probably had a hand in all that too, so, just, applause for the both of you.

Great work Zeb!

Can you post a list of who's registered?

Also, I have a room reserved at the hotel, and currently have 3 spaces open. PM if interested.

Everyone should go to this. The more I hear about it, the bigger and better it sounds. We need one big brew-ha everyone goes event in North America this year, this should be it. Boise is a great place, and the details of the event are really impressive. Shout outs to Johnny and Zeb, can't wait!

I am definitely looking forward to going to this tournament, so count me in. Is there anyone staying at the hotel with extra room for one more person?

Changed plane ticket.

Extending the trip the rest of the week: driving back to Kansas with Zac and co, and staying until Saturday.

Move me from the "maybe" list to the "definite" list, suckas! See you there!

P.S. Zeb, can you hook a brother up and buy me a box of bananas 2-3 days before the event so that they're ripe when I get there, I'll pay ya back XD

P.P.S. Oh and uh, looking for a roommate...

The thought of being able to meet Jorden Moir and watch him in person is making the wait unbearable.. My introduction to freestyle footbag was a video of him on youtube and I've been an addict ever since. The list of great players attending is insane and I'm sure I'll have several awestruck moments. Not to mention seeing all the incredible talent from last year as well. You've made my mind up at least on entering the intermediate competition lol. Can't wait to meet new faces and see familiar ones!
