I Live in: Joliet
Joliet is: 40 minutes south of Chicago, area of Aurora, Naperville, Bolingbrook

I can: provide a ride along the way, maybe slightly out of the way for 2 people. MAYBE 3.

I can also help out of towners maybe find things to do, -maybe- find a place for one of you guys to hole up for the night, but it wont be at my place, we'll have to see if any of my northern friends would be willing to take someone on.
EDIT I have procured a 90% of a yes from a good friend of mine to allow crash space in Aurora IL on thursday night to 1 or 2 people. Join the chat room to talk this over with the rest of the attendees, and we will sort out specifics later. Thanks.

So, no definite answers, but Im here, and Im going, priority admittance or not.[/b]

I don't suppose anyone is passing through Pittsburgh on the way? I'll chip in on gas of course.

Heck, we'll even make you an honorary GPAA member! How can you turn that down?

I'm basically five miles north of Detroit, so I will have fun with the ride. I actually seem to have my car filled already. My friends totally pounced on the idea. I was surprised.

[C_Brennan]

If you pick up Haefele, you pick up me! And I will chip in for gas!

Well, i'm in Kansas City, and i just wanted to see if any St. Louis folk were driving up there, in which case i would drive to STL and try to hitch a ride for the rest of the way. Anyone who can help let me know!

I'm in Detroit (Livonia to be specific), and though I'd prefer to carpool, myself, I do have a small truck in which ONE person could fit (unless someone wanted to make the November ride in back, on the freeway, heh). I haven't figured out where I'm staying or when I'll get back, so just keep that in mind.

Also I don't know exactly when I'm leaving except probably between 2 and 3, so I'll be getting there either just before reservation or right before "pre-loading" for crew ends.

My usual Halo buddy doesn't want to go - he was never into ILB, and he would rather play Halo 2 alone, the first time. *shrugs*

My husband and I are coming from Cincinnati, but unforunately we can't fit anyone else in our car. Just some tips though:

I grew up in Palatine, which is right outside of Schaumburg (actual axon location). This thing is going to take place either at or right next to Woodfield Mall. Woodfield is the 3rd largest mall in the US (I think. It used to be the largest), and there's MORE than enough to keep you occupied there for awhile. There's also a Portillo's hot dog place pretty close to the mall, which is where my husband will want to visit first. For local hotels, I recommend the La Quinta. I've stayed there several times and it's a very well-kept hotel.

Ummm...any questions?

I will be there! I am in the DeKalb area (NIU). So if there are any other 'Huskies' out there, i'll be more then willing to carepool out there with ya.

I am going to print this out and tape it to my door so i remember!

i'm an idiot

9 hours? is that all... I'm going for 12.

I agree completely though. I really don't care what we end up doing (I'm sure it will be great), I just want to hang out with everyone that's called me these last few weeks.
