Hey Chuck, the peeps at the theater really want us back this year and they promised to plan accordingly instead of the goofs from last year.
I think they had their chance and blew it. Food was cold, service was lousy and they were cooking on a outdoor grill. I doubt it met any health codes either.

Dang, I thought it was one of the better meals we've had at 3rd Coast. My food was fantastic. Part of the blame has to be on us though, we showed up with 30 more people than they were prepared for.

I think it was Rogers fault. He was late and expected them to serve him.

Even though the delivery system was weird (for the food), mine was also very fresh and good. I also liked the venue a whole lot. I thought it was a really cool place to hang out.......

Apart from us showing up with more people than they had planned for I agree with Sean and thought it was pretty good. Where we actually at the same place as you Jim??

They offered the complete bar area and the outside party area in addition to the Theatre. I have to say it would be worth going back just for the Karaoke. My dance partner better brush up on his dance moves though - Sean???

This Caucasian can't jump, shoot BBall or dance. I'll drink a bunch and fake the last one though.

Agree, the bar/karaoke was great and would like to go back and hang there. It's not like we have to walk far either.

Is that bearded cowboy singer going to join us this year?

For what it's worth the wife and I liked the theater thing as well.

They were clearly overloaded but the food was good and they tried hard to make it work. I would not complain at a second chance.

Well that's true. I learned the max wine capacity of a 928 is about 4 cases, plus luggage.

This is exactly the tech info that should be provided on the 928 forum.

I am booked at the hotel as well. Hopefully we'll have another large Houston group come down. That being said, I'm debating whether or not to drive my other P car just for the hell of it. I'd be slumming a bit, and I'd know I catch hell for "six in the rear", but a 500 hp twin turbo 911 cabriolet is nothing to sneeze at!
