$50!!!

REnthusiaSTS

no thanx, beer-n-bbq sounds better...$50-'nuff said

Icemark

yeah, quite a jump from last years $35... and last year was only mediocre dinner with kinda boring speakers.

So I wanted to see if there was anyone going before plopping down my $50

I usually go..

I'd like to go, but if it sucked last year and the general concensus is to have beer-n-BBQ then I'm with the crowd. What's everyone's take on it??

cool_as_crap

well, thanks to mr. flask, im sure i will be very tipsy during sevenstock

beer n bbq fits better into my budget than a $50 mediocre meal with boring speakers. and unless these speakers are gonna tell me something significant its probably nothing i cant just read online in 1/3 the time.

$50 will drive off many potential maybes.

forget that... unless it is a top tier dinner then it doesn't sound worth it to me. just convince the speakers to speak at our BBQ instead. BBQ outdoors sounds better than this does anyways.

cool_as_crap

where is the bbq going to be btw?

in the trunk of your car, where did you think?

Yeah, The $50 price tag is sucking.

Not sure if I want to go. Last year was pretty boring and the food was So-so.

For $50 I would expect a big *** steak served to me by a hot stipper.

Actually last years price was $40. Rates are up everywhere and we've worked very hard to keep them within eye sight of last years price. Remember it's not just the meal itself you pay for. We work hard to bring you a great event from start to finish. Speakers etc. will be annouced shortly and I encourage you to attend. Thanks all!

steak and a lap dance...hehehe

hey if they get dougie howzer as a speaker i'll go to the dinner.

i don't see a plan of events, list of speakers or menu.. nothing that constitutes the price. my suggestion is if you want more people to show, especially for that price, then tell them what they are getting for it.

to me it sounds like an older member meeting, most of the younger members would rather hang out around a fire drinking and shooting the **** rather than eating blah food and listening to boring speeches. even most of the older guys who are in this club have a younger mentality i see and probably even they would be bored by it so unless it is spiced up i think you will be fighting with our BBQ for attendance.

Icemark

well see, back as SS7, that dinner rocked. The food was great, and they had all the speakers from Japan, and the racing stuff and slide shows and the like.

So... I am mixed on buying tickets this year for it.

BoostedRex

I'm going to have to see a list of events prior to dropping $100 for Berry and I to have dinner.

Mark, did they release the group price hotel yet? I haven't seen anything about it.

RotaryEvolution

iTrader: (30)

well that's the problem, who knows how it will turn out so for right now i am leaning towards our own BBQ.

come on! who doesn't like getting drunk and belligerent?!

cool_as_crap

last year it was under my hood

robtechfabrications

yea we can bbq and get kranked since ben skipped out on sushi and poker night

RotaryEvolution

iTrader: (30)

skipped? lol i worked 14 hours that day and we didn't get done 'til 2am

ilike2eatricers

i'll most likely pass on the dinner this year. btw i definately got my money's worth last year with several dinners and desserts lol. most of the time at the dinner last year i just ended up going outside for drinks and burning a few

Icemark

yep, the it is the same Hilton Irvine Airport hotel as it was in the last years. $99 a night if you call Hilton, and say that you are part of the "sevenstock 9 group". That is the same place as the Dinner will be, so you can drink and not worry about driving.

I also still have an extra room for both Friday and Saturday night that has a single King sized bed at the same rate. (I booked two rooms back when they first announced SS9).

Ryan and I have both stay'd there in the past.

Ryan says he is willing to go drinking after the dinner this year. The last couple of years everyone is normally too tired or they want to head home or not drink... been kinda a bummer. Maybe this year will be better.

scratchjunkie

you gotta go this year as well so we can have a battle of the gluttonies again.


$50 though is kind of making me think about not going too. maybe theres a reason why its so high this year, but im too lazy to research. maybe someone will chime in for my lazy butt.

I'll post up the menu for this year, when I get home later. Maybe LC can right now, if he's got it... There's NY Steak on the menu.. and some other stuff..
