I'm 1/3 on the L-worth drive so far...not good odds.

 

[Dark Anghell]

Well my buddies wedding is on 13th, so I should be able to go. Gonna look for hotel rooms :biggrin:

 

[Strikered]

I've never been, but I'm assuming that it goes well into the night? or do poeple just not want to deal with the traffic on the way back? Either way, it sounds like a good time, I'm in!!

Anyone looking to room up?

Well, schedule of the event goes something like this:

1-2p.m. everyone arrives into Leavenworth
2-3p.m. everyone is above legal limit of .08
3-5p.m. everyone who thought they could drive has left...everyone else is doomed
5-8p.m. everyone who decided to stay is now on the way to blacked out abyss
8p.m.-midnight people start to use random objects to ride down the stairs, hug each other inappropriately, throw up in random places, pass out in random places
midning-on...I have yet to make it that far.

So it'd definitely a good time!

It's one of the biggest euro cruises in the country, almost 700 cars last year. It's a great time.
