in Trading Cards & Memorabilia Forum
I've already received a few PMs after I suggest having a CU dinner together after the show Friday in AC next week. So let's make this the official thread. Just reply to the thread if you want to attend. I'll try to get some details on a restaurant or two with a reasonably varied menu.

Will book a reservation for the group tomorrow evening, so you have a 24 hours left to figure out if you want to come.

Hoping lots of you will join in.

    Isn't that the same night as the Net 54 dinner? Or is that even happening this year?

    I don't believe Net54 is having one this year. IIRC, Leon is not even attending the National.
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    Correct as always Doug.

    Dave, unfortunately I already have dinner plans for Friday, but would be open either Wednesday or Thursday night if others are interested.

    I will also be in my usually spot around the BBCE booth. Feel free to rip a pack in front of me to watch me squirm.

    Mike, I hope you've started your hand excerises/hand yoga/hand pilates by now in preparation for a few days of good ol' fashioned bone crushing/pack collectoring handshakes starting a week from today (well yesterday!); looking forward to seeing you again and catching up! You too Geordie (are you even going?? Can't remember if you said you were. I don't think you are). Also look forward to seeing you again Dave since you weren't there last year and meeting you too Doug!



    Tim, wish you were going. I look foward to your pm in five minutes quoting select lines from this post and providing your usual expert color commentary!image

    I second that notion. Next year in Chi-Town will be my first ever Natty and will be saving up from this coming paycheck in the first week of August right until next years show. I want it to be a memorable experience, but in the meantime like Mike said, I hope there is lots of good threads about the show detailing everything with pictures and commentary. The last 4 years on the boards, I have visited the National through you guys. Hopefully, this year won't disappoint with the quality of good threads. I hope everyone has an awesome time!

    Hi Kirk! Thanks for the kind words and yes, I will bring the tablet although I am thinking of charging admission this year!image



    Dave, you might want to take me off the list for now as i'm not sure if I will be attending the dinner as we might leave on Friday afternoon; I only replied to the thread to say hi to those who had already posted. Sorry for the confusion.

    Two posts saying you will buy so does that mean you will buy twice?!?!image



    And are you going to buy everyone Pepto-Bismol after they eat the Chipotle to help wash it down?!?!image



    Seriously, I would never go near any of their restaurants after the whole ecoli outbreak that occurred in many of their locations this past winter. There is one in my town that was closed for at least a couple months--rumor has it they were considering changing their name to Chit or Get Off the Pot-le.

    Looking forward to catching up with you too.
