AC is not as big as Las Vegas by any means whatsoever. But it still is a fun place where once inside the Casino's you could easily think that you are in a Vegas Casino. As for the outskirts of the Hotels, it's not as bad as everyone makes it out to be. Not saying that I would wonder 4 or 5 blocks away from the Casino at 1:00 in the morning, but then again there is no reason to wonder outside the casinos late at night anyway! As far as having it on the outskirts of Manhatten, that is up to him. But the more I think of it the better it sounds to have it in a place like AC! Oh, and TIS, don't you worry, we'll get you there somehow! I don't know exactly when he is planning to have it being that he hit a snag with the manhatten hotels, but I promise that I will let you know when I know. Don Cardi

Not yet making any commitments, and just thinking ahead: What airport would I fly into if I were to go to AC??? Newark/JFK/LaGuardia??? I only know that Geoff took the subway to NYC, when I was there (and he lives in Jersey) and Jersey/NCY are very close????? Geography was never my strong point. :p TIS

Originally posted by The Italian Stallionette: I only know that Geoff took the subway to NYC, when I was there (and he lives in Jersey) and Jersey/NCY are very close????? I actually took a bus into the city, and would then usually walk to my destination unless it was bad weather, then I'd take the subway w/in the city itself. SC is right, fly right into AC if you can. Philly or Newark if not...

Well, it's way to early for me to even plan this, not to mention the fact that it's not even definite on this convention (although we could make our own convention I suppose) . However, that would be my next question. What form of transportation to AC and how far is AC from PA should I fly there?? Since I like to play around a lot on my computer I quickly checked fares and from Ontario, CA to AC I don't see any nonstops, but all two stops for about $100 more than if I flew into Philly. As time goes on, and if I do go, I'll bombard you guys with tons of questions I'm sure. :p TIS Yo!!! Maybe I can see Rocky while I'm in Philly!!

TIS, there are plenty of busses from Philly and NYC to AC -- AC wants everyone to come and spend their money!
