@darinjacobs
@hisnice
@SeaWolf
@gatordad
@Hippster
@oppolo
@Mark H

All of you signed up or wanted to sign up for 2023.

Now's your chance to sign up for 2024.

Anybody know Doc's @?

 

[gatordad]

Zud is coming... holy shit!

 

[ArcadeTechGW]

Zud is coming... holy shit!

He's soft, so he may, he may not.

We need 25 to really get a decent price break. I'm trying to get the reservation in by the end of October, since we should be able to get a better rate.

 

[darinjacobs]

I'm sorry I can't commit right now. But I'm hoping to make it and bring my son.

 

[Zud]

Zud is coming... holy O'Hara.

If i fly, I'll need someone to Uber me to and from O'Hare.

If i drive I should bring a truckload of goodies to sell, like a mobile garage sale.

Let me know when you can.

Other Chicago area members - please sign up to attend. We're probably looking at $45 to $50 per person PLUS TIP.

If you haven't tried one of the Brazilian Steak Houses in your life, it's an experience you won't forget (unless you are a vegetarian, in which case you'd rather forget it.)

If you do, make sure you list what you are bringing in advance. That way, you can get buyers for what you are selling.

 

[ArcadeTechGW]

Bumping this up. I'd like to make a reservation by the end of October to get the location tied down.

 

[oppolo]

I'm in for the 27th too

 

[DogP]

Unfortunately I don't know my travel schedule yet, so I can't commit. It'd likely just be me, so it doesn't sound like I'd push us over the edge for a discount anyway. :-/

[ArcadeTechGW]

We're up to 14 with DogP (soft, may not come).

Come on Chicago, northwestern Indiana, southern to mid-southern Wisconsin, Eastern Iowa, far eastern Minnesota, and anyone else who wants to attend.

Please let me know so I can book the date! 12/27/2024 Texas de Brazil, for a broiled meat extravaganza that you won't soon forget!

 

[Zud]

My soft yes has turned into a hard no.
