Block of Rooms for TFCTFN
 
With the 9th Annual (WOW!) TFCTFN on its way, I was thinking that we should get a block of rooms. I was thinking that I might give the old Holiday Inn a call.

Details to follow. Anybody down?

5/0 01-29-2011 10:37 AM

Yup:buds:

BassDawg 01-29-2011 01:07 PM

count me in,,,,,,,,,,

how steep can it be?

still working towards the hall pass,
should be good to go by then,,,,,,,,,

eelskimmer 01-29-2011 01:21 PM

Holiday Day is also known as Seaport Inn & Marina.
They have two bed rooms for $89 via Expedia.
Can we get a block of rooms cheaper than $89
for double occupancy???

RickBomba 01-29-2011 03:16 PM

I'm betting if I can get 25 rooms they'll get it down.

eelskimmer 01-29-2011 08:10 PM

go for it Rick and count me in for a room.

striperman36 01-29-2011 08:11 PM

Is this by the hour?

linesider69 01-30-2011 12:11 AM

tynan19 01-30-2011 11:18 AM

Yes, and I'm staying FAR away :rotf2:

In.:smash:

Circlehook 01-31-2011 11:41 AM

I'm in for a room. Can't wait for this.

tynan19 01-31-2011 03:18 PM

Oh come on John. I need a challenger for the treadmill toss! Also who else can bend steel with their legs?

Gloucester2 01-31-2011 03:24 PM

I went to TFCTF about 5 or 6 years ago . . . I somehow ended up back in the "gym" - afterhours . . .

About all I recall is blueberry beer, pellet guns and a model beautiful woman on the treadmill . . . I went back to my room shortly before the cops arrived . . . I've been too frightened to return :rotf2:

I forgot all about that :rotf2: . There was 300#s of weights on and someone on top of that? Was that you standing on the weights?

Best Treadmill toss must be Redlite from previous year.

tynan19 01-31-2011 07:14 PM

Exactly, now you can't not be there to defend your title.

animal 01-31-2011 07:27 PM

Rumor has it that photographic evidence exists....:smash:

Starfish 02-02-2011 10:02 PM

I don't think we have any other choice but to be "in" on the rooms blocked! :buds:

eelskimmer 02-07-2011 02:34 PM

Have we negotiated a lower block room rate
so I can call and make a reservation?????

RickBomba 02-10-2011 07:03 PM

Sorry guys...calling tomorrow.
Thanks,
Rick

RickBomba 02-11-2011 11:44 AM

So,
Here's the story:
I was able to get a block of 20 rooms on the same floor for the price of $69 for the night.

For an extra $10 PP, we can book a hospitality suite, if we like, with a 62" tv, couch, etc. if anybody is inerested.

I need to confirm the total number of rooms at that rate by Tuesday 2/15, at which point I will give them my credit card to hold the block of rooms.

People will pay individually when they arrive, at the hotel front desk (you pay for your own room).

If you would like to save $20 a night from the rate of $89, please let me know as SOON AS POSSIBLE. I am sorry for the short notice, but I only have until Tuesday to confirm.

Please either post here or send me a PM if you'd like to participate. If I don't get the 15-20 responses by Tuesday, the offer is off, and you're on your own to book a room.

I'll be at the Cape, out of comms until Sunday, but will get back to anybody with questions after that.

You can count on Mikey for a room, and myself for a room to start off. That leaves 18 to go!

Thanks,
Rick

RickBomba 02-11-2011 11:46 AM

OK, so here's the list so far:
1. Me
2. Mikey
3. 5/0
4. Bassdawg
5. eelskimmer
6. Linesider 69
7. animal
8. Circlehook
9. Tynan and Starfish (I'm guessing)
10. Jack K
11. Rob Rockcrawler
12. John R
13. Fishbones

eelskimmer 02-11-2011 03:01 PM

Okay, Rick did a great job getting a block of
rooms for $69. If we want the hospitality
room with kitchen, conference table etc. that
is an extra $10 on each room. Might be nice
for meeting everyone and after hours cards
and drinks. I made reservation just 10 minutes
ago. My bro Jim is coming down so we are
on bended knee for room at Bubba's table--
the lucky table. Block of rooms are all together
but if you want peace and quiet they will put
you next to the elevators.

5/0 02-11-2011 06:38 PM

Bring it!I can't wait:buds:

RickBomba 02-15-2011 06:39 PM

Hey Everybody,
If anybody else wants in, I will need to call tomorrow to confirm. Looks like we won't have enough people, as it stands right now. I'll still ask for the rate, but can't guarantee it.
Please let me know if you want to stay and I will let them know tomorrow.
Thanks,
Rick

JackK 02-15-2011 06:57 PM

Sorry, I haven't really been paying attention to this thread... But I'm down for a room.

Rob Rockcrawler 02-15-2011 08:07 PM

Im in.

RickBomba 02-16-2011 06:31 AM

OK Everybody,
With Jack and Rob, that makes 11 rooms. If four more respond, I think I can negotiate the rate. I'm going to call at noon today, so if four more people can commit, we'll go for the $69 with no hospitality room.
Sound good?
Thanks,
Rick

JohnR 02-16-2011 06:42 AM

I'm in for one, and the hospi room as long as none promises to trash it :love: . I'll even kick in extra if needed for that room.

fishbones 02-16-2011 09:34 AM

I'm in for a room and I'll throw some dough towards the hospitality room, as well.

RickBomba 02-16-2011 07:02 PM

OK, so we get the rooms at $69 a nite. No hospitality room, we needed 20 rooms to get it at $10 per night.

Please mention striped-bass.com when you call to make a reservation.

Everyone will be paying at the desk individually, upon arrival.

You'll need to call the hotel and book your room, in advance, where you will be able to pick either king bed or double beds.

Hope this works for everybody.

Oh yeah, if you weren't on the list and you want this cheap rate, feel free to call and reserve under the group rate with striped-bass.com.

Thanks,
Rick

RickBomba 02-25-2011 06:49 PM

Uhh, we missed the extra room. We would have needed 20 rooms with another $10 a piece by a week ago Tuesday.
