She said I got the last room in the Best Western that they had blocked off for SITM.
Did that mean the last room they had, or the last one they plan on for car ijits?

Greg, they may have another wedding party booked or something that will back out once they find out who else will be filling up the hotel!

There were a few brave souls last year, non 928 folks, very few that stayed two nights in a row.

Hope they open up more rooms for SITM, only 1/3 of the Texas Crew has reserved rooms.
And no, that does not mean one of three.

She said the last one of the block they had reserved for the SITM crowd at the special rate. When I checked availability through the on-line reservation system it looked like they had rooms available for those dates. Just may be elsewhere in the hotel and might not be at the $85/night rate.

If you ring and ask I'll bet you get the shark rate. They probably only blocked off so many because they can't reasonably block off the entire hotel this far in advance.

Mike, you're right- just reserved, Shark rate, room choice, no problemo. For all who have reserved and may not have asked, cancellation date is
MAY 31 !!

Martin, I must have booked just after you. There are rooms left at the shark rate, but only pet friendly with two double beds.

Pet friendly means I can pee on the floor, I think...

Those guys knew they had nothing to fear from us, they were the cool ones.
Was kind of funny you guys hiding your beer.
