OK, so we had one of these on the old forums, so I figured I should re-start this before we lose more time. Could I get a mod to sticky this for me?

When you respond to this thread for the first time, please quote the following questionnaire portion & fill it out. Hopefully this will help us be able to organize who's going, when, for how long & for what, etc.

UFC 98 Preparation Questionnaire

Are you going?

Planning on it, yes


Are you bringing anyone?

Just me, myself, and I

Where are you coming from?

Well, I live in Indiana, but I may fly out of multiple spots depending on the best airfare and if anyone wants to meet up with me. If I'm not meeting up with anyone...I may just fly from Indianapolis. But, I could also leave from Chicago, St. Louis, or one of the airports in Central Illinois (where I'm originally from...Peoria or Bloomington)

How are you getting to Vegas?

Some sort of airplane. Probably a Boeing or Airbus model is my guess. Which airline? Don't know. I'm waiting to see who might want to travel together and such.

When are you getting to Vegas?

I'll probably try to come in sometime on Thursday or early Friday so that I can go to weigh-ins. I'll leave on either Sunday or Monday depending on which days offer better fares.

Where are you staying in Vegas?

My hope is to either meet up with some folks or travel with a group and share a hotel room. I'll either take the floor or a roll-away. I'm not picky. I'm not sure that I'll want to sleep much, anyway.

Would you like/want to room with other forumite(s)?

Absolutely

Where are you sitting at the event ($100, $200, etc.)?

Cheap seats are good enough for me. I'd like to buy in with at least one other person. I could send my money to you in advance or vice versa. I'm good for it - you can ask Preach. He bought my ticket for UFC 77 and I stood good for it.

Would you like/want to sit with other forumite(s)?

Well, I'd like to sit with a few forumites, but amongst a bunch of Serra fans so that we can make fun of them when he gets busted up.

What other plans (if any) do you have for Vegas?

None really. I'm mean, I'm sure I'll take in some of the sites, tourist spots. But, I don't really gamble and I don't really drink. I would like to try to find the UFC Headquarters as well as maybe stop by Xtreme Couture and possibly Marc Laimon's place (Cobra Kai ?) and also Wanderlei's new gym. I think he just opened a gym out there, too. For me, it's an MMA weekend.

When are you leaving?

It depends - Thurs or early Friday.

Not going.

Watching at home on the 100" screen.

Big Party.

Wanna come?

Are you going? YES

Are you bringing anyone?
Brother most likely (jessedanger)

Where are you coming from?
Portland, Oregon!

How are you getting to Vegas?
Plane, mayyybe drive, but doubtful

When are you getting to Vegas?
Night before.

Where are you staying in Vegas?
With friends most likely, maybe somewhere cheap like the circus circus or rio


Would you like/want to room with other forumite(s)?
I would love to

Where are you sitting at the event ($100, $200, etc.)?
Cheapest

Would you like/want to sit with other forumite(s)?
I would like to, but maybe cant afford to.

What other plans (if any) do you have for Vegas?
Maybe visit some friends who live there, thats it.
Im kicked out of the Bellagio.

When are you leaving? Sunday afternoon.

Ok, so the real question is, who wants to let me and my brother sleep on their hotel room floor?

Seriously, I've slept on worse. I will wayyy throw in.
