Fack, this is getting to be a big effort for a couple of cigars and a coney dog.

Just buck up and drive FFS. Simple. You old cranks need to relax and realize a 2.5 hour drive isn't terrible. We're rotating driving duties each year!

When did driving to Windsor in a loaded FX35 become hard slogging!?!?!?!
Ahem....FX37 that is.
I don't mind driving but the train sounds more refined to me. ;D
Can't we get a limo or something to ferry the party to and fro from one venue to the next?
I'm also in for the 17-18 dates.

Do you realize that in about 30 (updated as requested) years, we'll have millions of old ladies running around with tattoos?

Maybe we do the shuttle from Caesars to the show then use the limo for the show to the cigar bar and back to Caesars?

Just be sure not to bring all of the proper credentials to customs.  Oh..and don't bring a pen.

I am contacting Caesar's today re: the suite and adjoining rooms. Other than the regulars (Snowy, Vman and myself) can I get a show of hands (PM me) for those that are in 100% and going to need a bed/share a room?

Put me in the "potentially" interested camp.  Lady Noto doesn't give me extensive notice on when I have to go down to Ithaca, so I don't know my availability as of yet.

When I went, I took the Tunnel Bus and found it to be perfectly easy to do.  There are doors right where the bus drops off/picks up, so you can wait inside.

...but limo + cigar bar + hookers sound great.  Hmmm, dilemmas.

If Caesar's is the only problem for the weekend, why not just stay in the best-rated hotel in Windsor?

;D Ron, this still makes me laugh.
