Cleveland pre show get together, Alice Cooperstown.

[NORTONnFRIENDS]

Alice Cooperstown (http://www.alicecooperstowncleveland.com/) is really close to the hotel alot of out of town fans are staying at. The problem with the venue is that its out of the way from everything. Ive been working on a way to get our asses to the venue after pregaming. It looks like a few of us are going have to drive from that area to the venue. Im posting a few pic so the area makes more sense to you. The venue parking is within a minute of the meeting spot area. I spoke with KROCK, there going to contact me back but I don't think they can help us out with this. By the way, bars can stay open in Cleveland until 2:30a

Folks I tried hard to get a tailgate off for everyone. I let you all down and i'm sorry for that. That damn venue stinks when it comes to pre gaming for anything not to mention the parking management shutting me down in every way. I went down to the venue today and spoke with someone. They stated that tailgating is not aloud because the river is so close and they did want to deal with people going in. They must know us drinks well. ugh Please forgive me.:icon_cry:

These pics show the area im taking about. Everything is down and out of the way. In that third pic it shows that the venue is down below the city. Walking can be done its just a hike. Do able, just a hike.

I want to say thank you. You have been the Cleveland Wackbag leader in all this. You put in all the work in trying to get a tailgate going, but it is not your fault that higher ups said no. Thank you much and I will buy you a shot of
Jägermeister :clap:

[blee]

When are we able to park at the venue? I would like to know because I was planning on getting in to Cleveland around 3:00. Also how much is the parking? Thanks for all you have done, I will definatly try and find you so I can buy you a drink. I did have a mason jar of Everclear that I was gonna bring but ended up drinking it this weekend.

Well done sir. Parking at the venue opens 2 hours before the show. I think parking is $6.00 at the venue. If you park on the upper level of the lot, there are shuttles that take you to the venue.

[WhiteHonkyDevil]

Holy shit! When did Cleveland get an Alice Cooperstown? I thought the only one was in AZ!

I would SO make the 2.5 hour drive to Cleveland for the show, but I'll be in Miami.

Damnit.

[Napoleon12]

what time is everybody going to meet at cooperstown. i think i got check in for like 11am so i can go somewhere and watch the osu and penn st. game.

[J. PETERSON]

:clap: round of applause for NnF....good work on trying to get things going for the 'Big Day'...but a big FU to the city of Cleveland for not letting it fly...
Oh well....we'll have to make due with what we have....
Should be a great time regardless.
NnF is def getting a beer from me!

[J. PETERSON]

We'll be to Cooperstown about 2:00ish

[Weldhelmet]

Add me +4 as a possible,. final decision is not mine as I am one of the 4 designated drinkers. The 5th is driving.

[NORTONnFRIENDS]

Folks keep an eye on this thread. Things are starting to stir, for the better of the group of course. PLEASE STAY TUNED..

[Skitzobill2]

I am supposed to work til 7 pm

[NoKin2AMonkey]

I like when NnF says there are things a stirrin. Maybe the bbbbboys are helpin us get from the starting booze place to the show? That would be cool beans :)

[dmacc45]

I'll be there +5 at cooperstown. Getting there around 3:00 to watch the buckeyes game.

It'll be just me & I'll be in around 3ish eastern time. I lose an hour on the way there coming from central time.

[Fruit Monkey]

Sounds like good times!

[mikepop]

Im coming in from Toronto with my Brother.Hope to arrive friday or saturday morning.

[Cozmik]

If you haven't booked your hotel yet try Hotwire. You say what general area you want to stay, like priceline, and they give you a bunch of mystery hotels with a star rating and a price and you choose one. They then tell you which hotel you booked in after you pay.

I picked the 3 star for $54 downtown and it booked me in the Gateway Hilton. :)
Your mileage may vary.

[NORTONnFRIENDS]

At this point nothing has changed. Cooperstown is still the meeting place for the pre game on Saturday. What happens after we all arrive who knows. :) Ill again be there around 2p with pest shirt and Cleveland Golf hat in full effect!! Oh and by the way, there's quite a few tv's there for the Ohio State Penn State game. GO BUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!


Friday is still up for grabs. Other Clevelanders chime in here. What do you want to do on friday??? PM ME, or throw it up here.

[NoKin2AMonkey]

What happened to things "stirrin" NnF?
And Jimmy said they were going to add one more comedian. Is that not happening any more? :(

[JaJaJulie]

I'll be there. Can't wait to meet everyone! :icon_bigg

[busterbros]

What is that hotel you mention a lot of people are staying at?

[NORTONnFRIENDS]

First of its kind in Cleveland. :)

Are they letting anyone in to see the show or is everyone standing outside the whole time?

[Boba Dousch]

The time stamp would suggest that it is, I am a tool

And is there something set up for folks to do that evening?:icon_mrgr

[happytypinggirl]

Here's the plan for anyone who wants to meet up with the rest of us!

6AM TO 11AM LIVE SHOW AT KROCK-- CAN SOMEONE POST THE ADDRESS?
AFTER THE SHOW, YOU ALL CAN FIND SOMEPLACE NEARBY TO GO AND HANG. WISH I COULD JOIN YOU BUT I WILL BE ON THE ROAD FROM 7:30AM TO ABOUT 3:30 PM.

FRIDAY NIGHT: Meet between 8pm and 9pm at Panini's : 840 Huron Road Welcome to Panini's Grill. We are no longer just the home of the famous overstuffed late night sandwich... Today Panini's establishments feature big screen TV's, satellite dishes, live music, dancing, happy hour specials, outdoor patios, expanded menus and microbrew beer selections.

From there, we can hit the Boneyard Beer Garden, that wings place, and lots of other bars. This was by majority opinion of people who live in Cleveland, and is also easy for visitors. So please don't bitch, and please everyone come out. What makes this fun is meeting all of you!!!!!!!

SATURDAY DAY: We're going to Cooperstown!!!!! 2217 E 9th St. I'm planning to be there with the Jandrea's EARLY. Like 12:30 early. And hang till about 4:30, then go over to the venue to check out the village. See you all there.

SATURDAY EVENING: THE SHOW!!!!

AFTER SHOW SATURDAY: Hard Rock Cafe. Okay its a dull place, but we'll be getting out of the show between 11 and 12, and for the two hours we'll have before things close, it just doesn't make sense to travel far. HRC is RIGHT IN THE TOWER CITY CENTER. So see you all there!!!!!! AND NOTHING IS DULL IF WE'RE ALL HANGING TOGETHER!!!

Did I get this all right???

[Napalm CTease]

I'm getting to cooperstown between 2-3

[NoKin2AMonkey]

I think the chick and I will be there around 3 ish

[wkbest]

See everyone at Cooperstown around 2 or 3...thanks for the info

[Boba Dousch]

I'll be at coopestown around 3ish. Then at the show. Then we will probbaly go to the HRC, what the fuck else would we do?

See you all tomorrow afternoon!

[GFY]

Can't wait to meet everyone. This is going to be a great time!!

[CrazyMrPoopSex]

I'm staying at the Hilton, check-in is 3 so I'll walk to cooperstown after that and hopfully meet up with some of you to walk to the venue.

[NiGhTsHaDe]

See you all there.....im new here but im sure itll be a blast!!!!

[J. PETERSON]

Leaving in 1 hour...should take about 3 hrs. to get there....
I'll be rockin my Jimmy Day T-Shirt....if yesterdays show was any indication, today should be a fucking blast

[MilkmanDan]

Im coming in from Toronto with my Brother.Hope to arrive friday or saturday morning.

Fuck if I knew people wouldnt make fun of my mongrel accent would've definitely went. Missed this thread. I dont think the show would go over big in Toronto just yet but I've seen WoW stickers

[LetMeBomb.]

am I to understand we're walking from cooperstown to TCA?

I'm definately going to coop's for the pregame.

[NORTONnFRIENDS]

I wouldnt walk. Its quite a hoof. Its 2 minutes to the venue in a car, i'd plan for that. The venue is in a funky location to be able to walk to. Youll se what i mean, its hard to explain.

[LetMeBomb.]

nah, i've been there, that's why I asked, I was gonna call you all crazy! (I used to work there)

[jimca_2]
