Hope this clears things up. Most of the hotels in town are already sold out but there is camping on site available and some people may end up with room on the floor in their rooms. Good luck and we'll see you there bro!

couple main hotels. primary where da party at is the best western. the secondary where a lot of people are staying because it is cheaper than BW is the norwalk inn. take your pic, they might still have some parking spots open with pillows. i believe both of those places are full.

At this point basically everything is full. Maybe DR1665 has a leftover room, or someone might be able to hook you up with a space in their room. Usually people start making reservations in January, 6 to 7 months before hand. You'll have to tag along on someone's reservation at this point if you want a hotel room, but if you want to camp out, there are plenty of camp sites around that area.

See you there. I'm at the Best Western.

PSSHHHT! Whatever man! I'll tell you where the party's at: someplace warm, a place where the beer flows like wine, where beautiful women instinctively flock like the salmon of Capistrano.

(dramatic PAUSE)

I'm talking about the Norwalk Inn. }(

I *might* and I mean ***might*** have a room, but I can't say for sure at this point. Best of luck. You might check some of the little towns around there. You may have to drive 30 minutes in, but still...

Norwalk Inn is the place to be this year IMO...plus they have a field in front of it...so as long as there is no stupidness (like burnouts and revving) i am sure we could do whatever.

There isn't going to be any more room at the econolodge, where the burnouts and scooter stuff happened last year. It won't bother me this year, since I plan on spending time at the best western drinking wwith the rest of 2GNT :thumbsup :cheers

That is so corporate man. Geez.
You know it would be really funny if one of the mods got all liquored up, hit on the chick at the front desk and got banned from the BW. A mod getting banned. How ironic would that be? LOL


Norwalk Inn > BW imo. ;)

You certainly know how to push my buttons. That's what life's all about, you know, knowing how you deal with the curveballs and to get back up when you get knocked down, know what I'm sayin'?

(Massive cliche count on purpose)
