slowmoe57 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 If JGBs go I assume we fly from Philly Well I tried the Tundra and they are already sold out -- I did the Mariner Motel on the other side of the river about 2 miies or so from the stadium . I plan on driving from Chicago Saturday morn and leave Monday morning -- nothing looks cheap but this will be a special occasion and I want my room booked -- which it now is.

BP Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 LOL. You suggesting driving from Philly? You have car for 4? When leave, when get back? I would leave early Thursday morning, arrive in Chicago late afternoon early evening. Stay over night there. Then leave for gb on Friday. I can drop you and the little turds off at ohare and you can fly back to Philly Monday. Problem is I got an extended cab truck. 4 would never work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green DNA Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Ok, all booked, staying at the Fairfield Inn 2 miles from Lambau (on Marriott points, they wanted $299 per night). Most decent places are either sold out or charging $250 and up. Getting in on Saturday at lunch time and leaving ion Monday. Got tix on StubHub in sect. 125 for $250 each, most tix are pretty expensive but may come down as the initial post schedule flurry dies down. Hopefully we can have a joebaby extravaganza before the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
