Thought I would make a special thread so people might be able to find the info better.

On Friday night after the show (7:30ish) we are going to meet up at Alberto's Restaurant in the Holiday Inn Carol Stream (our host hotel). Thumb Up

Friday night dinner special is a BBQ Buffet Drool and they have a full bar for those interested in adult beverages. I've never had anything bad at the restaurant, so it's worth a look.

Eating dinner is not a requirement, just come to hang out. There might be some trading going one. If this takes off we might do it ever show much like the Red Robin Gathering at Philly.

Surf Finally a reason to use this smiley! Checking in from Cancun!

Eat and talk first, quick trip to the washroom to wash up, then the cards...

By Tuesday or Wednesday, I would like to have some vague idea of how many are planning on attending the gathering. I'd like to give Alberto's a heads-up so we don't overwhelm them.

I won't have any cards, so I can indulge in barbeque with no worries. . .

I might go to dinner, it depends on what is going on at home on Friday.

BounceySPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT Bouncey

Thanks to the generosity of the fine folks at Breygent Marketing, we have a set of the Red Robin promos from Philly to give away at our gathering. Thumb Up

To make more winners, I'm going to break the set into 3 prizes. There are promos for Dawn, American Horror Story, and Witchblade. First person who wins gets choice.

Yet another reason to join us for dinner at Alberto's! Metal
